Have lots of fun man. And when you get back let us know how many cubby chevies and dodges that you blew by when pulling the trailer. I keep a mental log on each trip. My wife just shakes her head and tells me I am not aloud to teach our daughter things like that.

I am back in one piece

The trip was good the weather was not very good. The truck did very well. There was some really good hills between longview and astoria and the truck pulled the trailer pretty good. I still am going to change the rear end and put a 3.73 rear end. If there is anybody that knows where I could get this done maybe let me know.

I got my difs changed at the local Ford dealership cause I know them well and I trust that they can do a good job since it is quite a technical job. I am sure you will have lots of shops down there that can do it. I am glad to hear that you had a great trip and that the truck pulled like it should.

And ya preppy, I teach my daughter all that good stuff when my wife isn't around. Like this morning we were looking at all of papa's truck magazines and I was teaching her the good stuff and the bad stuff.

She will turn out to be one hell of a woman someday if you keep on teaching her like this!
