Well this is my first time camping and second year going to Stagecoach! I purchased tickets for El Dorado 1!!! So I have a 30' Weekend Warrior and my truck. So when I pull in do I have to un-hook from my trailer or will I be ok as long as im under the 50' rule? And also it says I get 8 wristbands. If only 3 of us are going together in my truck do they still give me all 8? I have my 2 other friends coming late on Friday when they get off.. Also when is the best time to get there to get a good spot? Sorry for all the questions any answers would be great :)

Welcome aboard.
Here is what I experienced last year. I have a 37' 5th wheel, and a crew cab long bed truck. They made us disconnect and told us to move our truck to the parking lot. I was able to jack-knife my truck in my spot to keep it there, but with your 30'and a truck, you probably wont have to.
We are being told that you will receive ALL of your 8 camping bands when you pull into the campgrounds. So you will have to just go meet your friends when they get there to give them to them.
As for what time? good question. The first year, the earlier you got their the further you parked!! Last year I got there when the gates opened and was the closest. I am pretty sure they are doing the same this year. Also easier to get there earlier to be able to park, gets crazy once it gets crowded.

Can a motorhome bring in a trailer? (if it fits in your spot)
The rule says "one steering wheel"...

I saw someone doing it on the virtual photo gallery for 07', looks like he barely fit. Got me thinkin about inviting my friends with a small toy hauler... My RV is 28', so as long as the trailer is around 20' we should be cool, if they alow it.

Yeah, but the 07 spot were NOT what they said they were, ours was 13x47!! And remember, your doors, pop outs, awnings etc tie into all this. We had to jigsaw our rigs to fit.

Haha...that is a good question on how you get out sunday. They wont allow you to leave until a specified time, Usually within an hour or so after the final act. There were signed posted everywhere letting people know that they cant leave before then.
Friday..you will still be ok. Concerts arent until Sat, but yes, many people were already there on Friday.
