Red Horse Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 It is the solicitation for another book listing all the members with your vehicle picture-just like the one published in 2011. So this one will be 2016.SOS- schools -colleges do the same thing-every 5 years its a money pit! Harris is the name of the outfit that does this- I have received two post cards and two e-mail requests-haven't called yet.

bluebonnet Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 Thanks all, Was just wondering if it was a scam.Victor Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/42940-american-truck-historical-society/#findComment-314185 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Ya, I remember it a few years back. I didn't do anything back then either. The card is very vague and doesn't say anything about buying a book(like the last time). I haven't replied either. My rusty old junk is not worthy of a fancy book and surely not going to pay to look at it either. I can walk out to the garage and do it for free.The photog for our racing group takes a good photo anyway....as seen below. 2 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

HarryS Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I got a couple of the cards and also emails. I remembered this marketing program from the last time. I responded then and got the heavy handed pitch. One of the automobile clubs has also done this.

farmer52 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I called and yes the ATHS has contracted with a company to publish a roster of members and members' vehicles. I updated my information, bit the bullet, and ordered the CD version for $34. I thought it would be "nice to have" since it lists the members, location, and vehicles. Likely the CD is copy protected so someone cannot make copies and sell or give to others. As was mentioned, my college alma tomater did the same thing a few years ago.

Brocky Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 The thing that suprised me the most was that there was NO advance notice of this book happening in the last few issues of the Wheels of Time.. 2 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/42940-american-truck-historical-society/#findComment-314329 Share on other sites More sharing options...
