It does seem like all the action is back there. I think the closet person to me is Travis and he is 3 hours away. A few us of in the AZ group are going up to Travis's house in 3 weeks for a G2G, cant wait to finally meet someone and put a face with a screen name and talk trucks!!!

I used to drive to see my girlfriend at salisbury university which took about 2 hrs at that was pushing the truck hard the whole way there, then I got the DP and after that it still took about 2 hrs but I didnt have to push the truck at all really. Plus I did save fuel with the econ setting

It will be mountains for about 1 1/2 hours of the drive up to Travis's house. I cant wait to see how the truck does with the 80E and the sound that it will make now with the foil delete and 6637. The last time I was up the same strech of mountains the truck was still the "gutless wonder" and I was happy with the way it took those hills. I am sure it will be a huge change between last time and this time.

Man, I had to start from page 7 to get cought up. I hope all you guys/gals had a good 4th.

We lost our DUCK friday night, I guess the fireworks bouncing off the pond didn't help. He may have gone to another pond around here. He was cliped, so couldn't fly.

You lost your what???? I know D is right next to F on the keybosrd, so I must assume that was a typo. But I don't see where clipped and pond enter into the equation.

Thats pulling out the big guns...combined with the "helpless girl" scenario...always a winning combination...I dunno about Cris, but I usually keep the big guns hidden unless it's absolutely necessary..a last resort. It's gotta be something pretty important to get to that...like getting out of a speeding ticket.

I'm not sure I know what it means either Kris, but...at least you've proven that you don't give up easily. And in any good relationship, you'll need persistence, and communication (and great sexx...ehem, I mean, what?..who just said that).
