    Does that mean that a Tom-tom is better for directions than a Lance-Lance?:p

    Glad that you made it home safe, Don. I want to say that you have made some huge sacrifices travelling that far to Roundups/Gatherings.

    3 pats on the back for Don! :bowdown:


    Now....what about this 'street' car that your wife gave you a year to
    prepare for cruising :drive:? Plans :burnout:?

    Seth, just came from the shop where the new floor plans are for the sprint. Guess we know where I'll be spending a lot of time.

    Lance, the front truck tires are at 60 and the rears are at 80. Never lost any tire pressure at all. Checked them when i pulled into the motel again. Trailer tires were at 80, but the new trailer tire is at 60.

    So, the combination of Lance and the non-working GPS was less effective than a mother-in-law for a navigator?:hmmm:
