Was going to sat something about hoping the grass is greener where your going but it looks like your surrounded by concrete and ashphalt, so. Hope the concrete is greyer and the asphalt is blacker where your going.
Is it my imagination or is your pickup U haul orange, LOL
Have a safe trip Puddy.

Thanks guys, had a bit of a delay already.
Side wall blew out. Guess that's what happens when you don't cover your tires up and let the UV's bake them.

Hope that wasn't too scary. I've lost a sidewall on a trailer and it was a little too interesting for my liking.

Hope you arrived in Sarnia safe and sound Puddy, it's rare to see someone with worse fuel economy than what I get but driving into Ontario and around Lake Superior will do that.

Some guy with a Grand Cherokee has a problem with his alarm. It goes off every couple of hours. I kind of hope he figures out the issue before nighttime, this has been annoying enough through the daylight.
