We finally decided to get a new tow vehicle. I think if we add some air springs and put K&N air filters on it and run premium fuel we should do fine in the mountains. Now to find some one that can weld a hitch on the thing.

The F350DRW is a bit of over kill for the trailer.

It is a 1976 and has 63,400 original miles.

Sandy, instead of heading out of town, you could come over and help me finish the brake work.

Ken, Michael and I went motorcycle riding yesterday. Saw a red one in Katy and another red one up in Waller. Funny, you go so long and never see one and then someone you know gets one and they are everywhere. Have fun.
