I actually did that about four years ago JP. Converting to water just didn't work out because I keep clogging up the nozzles. I should have had the tank steam cleaned but the bottom line was, I missed it!! I like having as much fuel as possible because I hate pulling into stations to get fuel with that 65' train. I now have the 33 gallons in the aux tank, 38 gallon rear tank and 19 in the front. With 90 gallons at even a sucky 7 mpg I can go over 600 miles. I usually get to where I'm going, then go to town to fuel up. But of course, there are always truck stops!

 

haha, Salt Lake City must have spread to much salt around and trees won't grow!

 

Glenn, you need to rig up some sort of remote control for the Tracker so when you are fighting those head winds, you can fire up the Rasberry and it can push! Or better yet, just put the wife in the Tracker with a walky talky and when you pull those long grades tell her to nail it!

 

Good looking rig Glenn.

 

A guy can dream! On the railroad in the 80's we called them helpers. Now a days they call the engines in the back derivative power. I have no idea how they came up with that. Anyway, just backing up a little bent the tow bar so pushing on the 5er will not work. But, good idea anyway Bill,

Thanks man, I appreciate that!

JP, thanks for your comment, I got to typing and forgot to say that.

 

I hate winter, this weekend is the final show for the year for me and it looks like rain so I may not even get to go. I am already looking forward to RRE 2015 I hope some of the guys get to come next year that I have not got to meet and all the ones I have. We've had a good year with the Mistress won three out of five shows. It has Rain at every show but one this year.

 

Evening fellas.

Kevin - already thinking about RRE 2015 and the shows the 1/2 ton will be going to. I only won at Ford Nationals this year, but the offseason program is looking strong so we're going to improve. And I have big plans for the OBS too.

 

Wow Glenn, that is a nice spot with a good view! I love it when my wife and I find those. I always use truck stops when pulling or not. I usually have my trips mapped out according to where the next Pilot is...LOL

 

Byron, if we are running late and can't find a spot to camp, we'll stop at wally world. We don't like the place but we stock up on supplies and give the generators some exercise, LOL.

 

Todd sorry for your lost pet. Congrats for your home.
Nice pics Glenn, as always.

 

Sorry to hear about Boris, Todd. It's always tough when a family pet has to be put down. Nice house. That's gonna look nice when it's all finished

 

Yeah man, pets are as much a part of the family as any human is, that's for sure. Always tough to have to put one down.

 

Todd your house is going to be amazing when its done. I can already see that from your pictures. I'm sorry about your dog. It really sucks to loose a pet.
Our oldest dog, Patch, is 12, so he probably only has a year or so left. My wife is severely attached to this dog, and she's never lost a pet before. I'm not looking forward to him passing away. I think our other dog, Dixie, will probably devastated about it too.


Ok, time to change the subject now.


Todd, I just might have to buy your baby a Purdue onesy and mail it to you. lol.

 

Thanks guys! It was out first pet to be put down as well. It was really tough.

I wish I could say the house was a labor of love, but this timeline is killing me! Lol

Phil, don't wast your money on the Purdue onesey, have you been relevant since Bree's? Lol. Oh and where did Darrel Hazell get his start....hmmmmm I wonder. Lol!

 

I'm just giving you a hard time, Todd. LOL. At least Purdue doesn't get busted for cheating every other year. I don't follow CFB.
I'm way more into basketball, which has turned into crap under Painter too.
