We can make it Dallas or something. That will save you a few hours. LOL.
Mine runs remarkably well with bad uppies.

I really want to make it out there and get an inmate number. I have heard of on certain Tennesseean that is an inmate that didn't wrench though...


We'll probably end up out racing some unsuspecting peeps somewhere. I know a spot every Saturday night too.

Well, I learned two very important lessons today. One, you can beat the absolute snot out of an OBS and it will still run and do its job for you...and very well. Two, Super Duty trucks are not a joke and and amazing performers, even after sitting and having dead batteries. Lol! Bill and Todd, you need to get down here! Could be a darn good time to do serious stuff!!

Oh, and true Texan hospitality is alive and well at the house of Travis! Can't say that enough!!
