It was great Jose. The wife has already said when we buy one, it needs to be bigger. Lol. The one I towed down was a little squirly, more so on the way back, but we didn't have any "real" issues with it. I found a real nice deal on eBay for a 5er, but until I get my house done, it's just a dream.

It looks like I avoided all but a couple of these pictures! It's probably best for your camera anyway. Good times and great memories. I hope we all get to do it again next year.
