America's Packard Museum — Attraction in Dayton

Cars are nice person was not.Musium person was not courteous and did not give Dayton Ohio a good name .I was taken there by my family and all was well until we got ready to leave.I tried to ask questions about some of the exhibits but the person was rude and tried I felt to intimidate me over my patch on my hat! My patch simply says black guns matter and has an outline of a AR type rifle on it. I hate that we were there visiting Dayton when the obviously mentally deranged person shot people .!!!! But I nor my family did anything wrong!!!!!! And did not need to be told I don't mean to tell you how to live but that patch on your hat might get you trouble! At which time I told him that I could talk to them like a gentleman or not as the case may be. And I was aware of the shooting downtown. Myself and my family would like to reach out and say the violence against US citizens by mentally unstable persons should never be tolerated and we are all sadend by these incidents and send our best regards and thoughts to the families.In saying that I thought the gentleman overstepped his boundaries and was rude and should have kept his thoughts to himself!!!! Thanks. ...

Thank you for bringing our daughter’s vision for her wedding celebration to life. The guests are still talking about the unique venue. The parking across the street was convenient and easy to find. Many locals had not been to the Packard Museum and they, as well as the out-of-towners, greatly appreciated viewing the cars and the opportunity to ask all their great questions of the Museum staff member who spent the evening in the museum. The beautiful cars on display in the showroom and the garages provided just the unique experience during the cocktail hour and reception we were hoping for.

It was a pleasure working with you and we will continue to recommend the Packard Museum and Elite Catering over and over. The Packard Museum is the only special event venue in Dayton that can provide such a...

The physical museum is fine. Lots of Packards of all ages and conditions. Some immaculate and some showing their age. Most cars had a placard with a brief description and some related info. But absent a knowledgeable guide or docent, it was so much dead metal. The ticket seller at the entrance seemed to know about the artifacts but did not even have a list of cars to use as a guide. The collection did not discriminate between "real" Packards and replicas. And there were numerous DeLoreans and Ferraris scattered about. Entry was $15. No discounts for seniors, vets, AAA members, students or children. Parking is on the street with no wheelchair access. We spent about an hour there. I'm not an expert but I know enough to get around. I cant imagine that someone who didn't know Packards would enjoy the visit. And heaven help you if you bring kids. On the plus side, the museum had some very unique engine/motor artifacts. No explanations really. But if you knew them for what they were, they were hidden gems. At the end of the day, not a visitor...
