Yeah, we had just gotten all the big important stuff finished and unloaded as the heavy rain started. Couldn't have cut it much closer if we had planned on it.

Pictures from Friday, had a great day!





I don't get this truck, but I am impressed by it. Ran great with the trailer hooked up. What I don't get is how I get 8.5 mpg towing a ~5000 lb. trailer, and I get 8.8 without it.
