Evening fellas!
Brother went to the dyno today with the Stang. Said he made 580hp and then the inter cooler pump broke. He said it was pulling timing too so needs to get back to the drawing board and start again. He got the supercharger up to 22psi and said it screams now! Expensive hobby!
Well I got the camper winterized and next will be the boat. Slowly working on the list.

The F150 is doing fine towing... Most of the time I've either had a headwind or crosswind and MPG is currently at 9.8 for the overall trip. Glad I have a 36 gallon tank!

Good morning guys.
Worked on getting gutters on the house yesterday. About 3/4 done. Just two strait sections left but they are the highest also. All the prep work is done on them though so it should be quick to finish.

Ouch.....yeah nice to have a big tank for sure or you would be stopping a lot more often. That is where the diesel is nicer. Better mileage towing but not quite as off road capable as the Raptor.
