I took her out of cruise so I could get a feel for how she'd do, but did great! Climbed 70mph whole way up, never downshifted, sounded good the whole way up

Where are you from drivin?

Currently Vancouver, but I like to call Bend home. We still have a house there. I'm partial to being East of the Cascades. This valley stuff is getting old!

Yeah, I used to live just north of Hood River, definitely like it on the east side of the state a bit better, too rainy over on the west side. On the other hand though, over here in La Grande, we can get all four seasons in the same day......within an hour......in April/May/June......last year we got 3" of snow on the 16th of June! Go figure with this global warming thing.

As far as the truck goes, already put about 1000 miles on it, and it makes me grin from ear to ear doing it
