Anyone that comes by here can, and should drive this truck. Its just amazing how much power it has stock. And yes, the new tires totally changed the look of the truck.

Next weekend we are camping, then working in Massachusetts the week of the 21st, then New York the week of the 28th. I think Ill be here Saturday morning, 06/26 if anyone wants to come up for breakfast. (even you Aaron)
Aarons buying.

Sounds good Ray. Have an incident-free time in Maine. I may be able to make an early breakfast on the 26th. We'll see.
