    20:54 Wow! What a fun time. Too bad it was so wet! I have a class c I don't believe I wouldn't chance doing that meet up😢
    This winter I'm going to Texas, and then April-May I'll be looking for a ambulance to scoot around in!!
    Safe travels Toledo 🙏 💙

    Congratulations on being able to use that incredible vehicle. Looked like a great time.
    Gotta say though a 21 min video that shows about 2 minutes of the actual expo not was what I was expecting. Luckily there's 1.5 speed and fast forwarding. 😮🤔
    Hopefully it still counts as a view for you 😉
    Again congratulations on your partnership with Storyteller.
