Nice trailer...kind of pricey.
Yes it does[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Price was right for me[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] ZERO cost[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] My good buddy bought it and the Wells Cargo trailer (that I have sitting in the drive way[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]) Use it whenever I need to

Speaking of school supplies. The list keeps getting longer and longer[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] The school is also specifying NO Made in China pencils[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Not that I am complaining, but, you know how hard it is to find such a thing[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

No way[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
Yah, keep yer truck under 2000 rpm and see where it takes you [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Off the top of my head[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] I don't think I can do 55-60 mph and not be over 2000 rpms. I'll check tomorrow or should I say later today[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

ok WTF? No Made in China pencils? Are they going to kick them out if they bring them? Must be a Union school or something. If I saw that, I'd specifically seek out and find Made in China pencils. hehehe.

Must be a difference in gearing there. LJ running 3.73s and you're 4.10s? But you've got the bigger tires over stock. I know his are still stock size.

Bigger tires will kill your performance off the line but will give you lower RPM's at freeway speeds while maintaining the same speed as a vehicle with stock tire size.

Hey all! Just thought I'd bump this thread to the top.

Well, I've been forced to slow down. At 65 mpg, I get 16-17. I have to wear a flack jacket, but damn, fuel is expensive.

Oh, the kiddies go to school tomorrow...and wifey is very happy.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Oh, pee boy struck again...this time, it was on the side of the house.

LMFAO. Just peed on the house, or on a friend? Or one of the other kids?
