[Is the cruise drum brake friendly? Or do I need to put that disc brake swap on my list of priorities?]

We definately want to get you into the cruise. I'm not so sure about drum brakes? Is your truck an automatic or a stick? Even if it is an auto, you can drive most of the cruise in 2nd to slow the truck down. You can run behind Tom, that way if you hit something, it wont be me or Garry.

lmao, I'm sure Tom appreciates that.

We'll probably get the brakes done, just never know how projects are gonna go around here though. And to answer your question, its an Auto.

My brother asked me if I was gonna trailer it. I was like, are ya kiddin me?! I can't believe he asked me that. Sheesh.

Yeah, I know what you mean about projects gettin out of hand. I'd originally thought about not goin to the show this year, BUT after much thought I decided that I Needed to do this. I'm plannin on rewirin my truck between now and the time of the show and also remakin my bedcover. There are some other small changes such as CRUISE control that I hope to get done too, but time will tell.

I am gettin excited about the show.

Well, I don't know if I will have the F5 ready by then, but I reserved a room for me and the Mrs. I hope you guys won't boycott me if I show up in my 01 Super Duty, or worse, the wife's rollerskate (Pontiac G3).

Well crap! I'll be out of town and not near TN when that rolls around. That sounds like fun. I'll have to try to hit it in the future.
