The truck is shifting into 4th and 5th now but the shift is a little on the sloppy side.
I have to make an appointment with New Brighton Ford to get the turbo looked at. 9.5-10mpg pulling the trailer...
ssshhhhh.....
It doesn't look like a ton of snow but they say there was 96" up towards 9,000 feet. I can believe it too. The warm weather during the day and the cold at night made the snow a bit harder.

Yeah, I am not terribly happy with it at this point. The turbo has been apart and cleaned before which I don't think helped.
The transmission is bugging me too. I hope it is not too expensive.

More than 50% Troy. I think I heard that a certain mechanic friend we all know was having issues also....
Hopefully I have a little more energy tonight and I will put up some pictures of our trip.

Morning guys,
Well I hope life is finally settling down. Was at a cabin with family last weekend and then had to go to Georgia for work until yesterday.
Hope everyone has been good. Looks like you guys had a good trip.
Here is a link to the local newspaper article on the fire.
Herald Journal, Delano Herald Journal

He bought that Chevrolet that I posted a while back.
Supposedly the engine and tranny had been rebuilt/replaced at 160k. Well, the tranny is done for now. It also turns out that the CEL wasn't working as there were quite a few codes stored in the computer.
