As the sun sets on the 5th Anniversary Veterans Appreciation Weekend and we start moving the lots back into place one thing keeps hitting us over and over… none of this happens without every single one of you!

To everyone who cruised, showed a vehicle, volunteered, sponsored, donated, set up a booth, brought your family, supported the auction, shared a post, shook a hand or simply came out to be part of something bigger than yourselves we thank you. Your support for this event, for our Veterans and for this community goes beyond words. This evening we were told something that honestly hit us deep. Someone mentioned how much thought and effort we put into making sure the next generation had a place in this weekend too. The Hot Wheels Shows. The smiles. The memories. The excitement.

Our response was simple.

We are nothing without our future!

Our Veterans fought for the freedoms we enjoy every single day. Some made the ultimate sacrifice so we could gather together like we did this weekend. It is our responsibility to make sure that appreciation, that respect and that sense of community gets passed down to the next generation so it never fades away.

This weekend was about horsepower, music, friends and beautiful rides but more than anything it was about people. It was about honoring sacrifice, building memories and bringing generations together for something meaningful.

From the bottom of our hearts thank you for allowing us to continue building this event year after year. We have not even fully wrapped up 2026 yet but already our minds are looking toward 2027 and putting the puzzle together all over again.

Thank you for believing in this event. Thank you for believing in this community. Mostly thank you for being part of the Ultimate Family.

TODAY IS THE DAY!

After months of planning, late nights, meetings, phone calls, organizing and pure excitement the Veterans Appreciation Car, Truck & Bike Show is officially HERE.

Last night’s Cruise & Block Party was absolutely incredible and before we roll into today’s show we want to say thank you! Thank you to the City of Mountain Home - Hickory Park, Mayor Hillrey Adams, Farmers & Merchants Bank, Frontier Events, Hunter Clark, Electric Eagle Tattoo, Rapp's Barren Brewing Company, every vendor that set up downtown last night, all the spectators that came out, all of the rides that participated and all of the law enforcement officers and fire departments that helped keep everything running smooth. The amount of support this community continues to show this event is unreal. This is not to overlook any of our amazing sponsors or vendors involved in the weekend as a whole. Last night was just one more reminder of how many people come together to make this event what it is.

Now it’s time for the SHOW. Cars, trucks, bikes, vendors, auction items, Kids Corner, food, giveaways and thousands of people coming together for an incredible cause. We are beyond excited to see the lots packed today. Let’s make this 5th Anniversary one to remember.

Mountain Home let’s get loud.

THIS IS IT!

In just a few hours the Cruise & Block Party takes over Mountain Home with Hunter Clark hitting the stage in the Baker District while the streets fill up with hot rods, lifted trucks, classics, bikes and enough horsepower to shake the square.

Then tomorrow… the 5th Anniversary Veterans Appreciation Car Show will officially take over Ultimate Auto Group.

The trophies will be waiting. The auction will be loaded. The Kids Corner will be going strong. Vendors will line the lots and rides from all over will roll into Mountain Home for one massive day celebrating veterans, community and horsepower.

Tomorrow won’t just be another car show. It’ll be the day we’ve all been building toward for months.

Let’s make this 5th Anniversary LOUD!

We are officially inside the final countdown.

In just over 48 hours the dealership lots at Ultimate Auto Group will fill up for the 5th Anniversary Veterans Appreciation Car Show with cars, trucks, bikes, vendors, auction items, giveaways, Hixon’s Kids Corner and thousands of people coming together for one incredible cause.

But tomorrow night we kick the whole weekend off with the Cruise & Block Party. Hunter Clark takes over the Baker District while rides from all over the region roll into town and line the streets. If that wasn’t enough Electric Eagle Tattoo offering Hot Rod Tattoos Friday and Saturday.

If you’ve been waiting for the weekend to start consider this your warning. It’s here!

2 days until the show.
1 day until the cruise.
And Mountain Home is about to be buzzing all weekend long.

Saturday is coming in hot! Here is a video with our guys Brad & Chris showing you around the lots and going over some of the important details for show day. Trailer parking, where to enter, where things are set up, Hixon’s Kids Corner, vendor areas and a few other things that’ll make the day go a whole lot smoother for everybody coming in.

Also, we’re going to try to keep Chris moving and available as much as possible Saturday to help vendors, participants and anyone needing direction throughout the day. If you don’t know who Chris is just reach out to us and we’ll make sure you know exactly who to look for when you get here.

We’re down to the final stretch now and Mountain Home is about to get loud.
