Good morning fellas!

Just home from the hospital. Mason had hernia surgery and all went well! Now he's on the couch with the Xbox and Pringles with mom and dad waiting on him. Good recovery plan!

Sounds like about what I get towing Randy.

Nice work Jay! How's the heat bill? Hehe

Good afternoon everyone!

Glad to hear all went well for Mason! I am sure he will take advantage of you guys as long as he can. Haha

I saw the FB post Cory but it didn't say what he was having done. Glad it went well but too bad he had to. What happened?

Heat bill is ok so far but haven't really seen a full month yet. LOL

Good evening fellas
Checking in from Benson AZ....
Yep the diesels are better at towing, but I have to say that the EcoBoost is proving to be an EcoBeast! It doesn't shift down below 6th gear even on the steep hills.
I'm impressed with the 10 speed tranny...
Overall MPGs are up to 10.2 with the AC on. We have roughly 1900 miles in the books.
We'll be taking off in the AM for Gold Canyon...

Good morning guys.

Went to moms and went to town with the hedge trimmer. Gardens look much better. She is much happier now. And if mom is happy we are all happy.

He had Hernia surgery. it wasn't a huge issue but to pass a physical for sports next year he had to have it done so we decided now rather than later.
