I am thinking it would be best to try and travel in a group if possible. Thats a long drive and there is bound to be an issue or two come up.

camp ground looks good.. they have cabins :-D lol

thats looking good.

And you just have to be careful however you carry a load like that. Most single axle trailers only have 3500 lbs axles (if that) under them and then you have to subtract the weight of the axle.

My bumper pull car hauler only has 2 x3500 lbs axles, but it weights 2k so max weight on it is 5k lbs. Where as my gooseneck has 2 7k lbs axles and it weights 4800lbs so it can do 8200lbs.

If you think about it a 3/4 ton truck is only meant to carry 1500lbs of weight. That goes real fast when you haul construction stuff!!

So I have been without her (I guess its a her?) since May 2nd.

The roof has been replaced and all dents removed. Its primed and clean and ready for paint... except... the new hood and front bumper are MIA.

They shipped June 6th, but never showed up. They are working to either track them down or get new ones sent out.

the hood and front bumper are those shown in the link above. I think it will look awesome when its done!!

If I ever get it back.

Lets figure it out. It will be hard to take a whole week off work, but I can work remotely.

My kids could not go but I can work that out.

Maybe I will have my cummins back by then :-(

August = stupid hot. Let me do some smaller runs up here and verify my AC is doing better with the new upgrades. Then we should be good for August.

maybe that will give everyone else time to try to figure out AC between now and then lol

looks good.. that was a load for your truck for sure.

I have squatted the cummins like that... but it was also 2.5 pallets of sod and the bumper pull trailer. Those air bags took it back to ride height.

I figured I was close 15k lbs total weight. Thats a good load. Once I was at speed it did not even care.

if you have 3.55 gears and something around stock tires and a stock engine.... it will kick down out of over drive period.

now add a mild cam and 3.73 gears... and it makes a difference!!   :13:
