Tom, you should be OK weatherwise. We've been getting a few late afternoon showers, because the temps and humidity are on the rise. Ther's a "cold" front coming Sat. nite and it usually rains in front of them, but you should be fine. Where are you going in Tampa?

Excuses, excuses......

Come on man, enough of the teasing, we want to see some pics. If pics of my truck don't make people sick then you've got nothing to worry about.

Good luck on the trip
Bobby

48coe--if you need a free place to stay and do some work on the truck -I have a ranch in Hernando Florida--with lots of room to turn a semi around. If you run into trouble -let me know---Bill
