First tow

I towed yesterday for the first time with the new truck. The truck has got about 5k miles on it. It performed like a champ. The 6.0l is a really nice motor, and has plenty for my measly load. I Love my truck!

Good to hear! I've only had mine for a little over a month and love it too! I like your truck by the way, exactly like mine, but mine's white. Just love how clean they are with the color coded option.

Thunderhill, Buttonwillow or Willow Springs? It's been a long time since I did some laps with the POC or the PCA!!!


What a blast, I had a fully modified 911 SC. It's back to street now.

I am picking up my new '07 F350 CC 4X4 Lariat on Monday, can't wait!

Small world indeed... I still have my '72 911 that was a pumped up SCCA Solo II/Pro Solo winner in the mid '90s (used to Time Trial with GGR at those same tracks mentioned and also in Houston at TWS). Lost interest in the AX side, but keep telling myself to set the little rascal back up for track use....

Made me smile today at the memories, thanks for that...

It can't be Willow, the trees are still upright and there are no icicles!

Nice ride, clean Porsche and a great picture. Wait until you grab 12K and yank it over the Grapevine, that'll put a big smile on your face!
