Just returned from Yellowstone!

Just got home from our vacation to Yellowstone Park. 3500 miles towing my 8500# TT, the only issue was a tailpipe that rusted from the muffler, causing the tailpipe to twist up and rest against the top of the plastic cladding, melting it. Wired it up with an old marshmallow roasting stick (wire, not wood!) and all was good again! Here are some pics of the X on vacation!

Beautiful, I'm sure it was a great vacation. I love the west but I'm stuck in the east.
A favorite camping area of mine is Lake Pactola near Sturgis and Mt. Rushmore, S.D.

Great pictures. Never gotten to Yellowstone, too far away. Maybe one day we can hop in the Excursion and drag the Travel Trailer off of the East Coast.
