      I don't know what your return time frame is looking like, or route, but in two weeks I'll be heading south through Vegas and Kingman (I-40). Keep us up to speed on your route and time frames as they're known

              That cummins should treat you right and it's lower now so Dan doesn't need a step ladder to get in and out of it anymore.

              Remind the old man to put a quart of ATF in the fuel every once in a while to keep that pump happy.

              Enjoy, drive safe - and if your return trip swings you near Detroit, we'll get together, if not - we'll see you in Wilmington next year.

                I just took the I-40 from Memphis to California...not a bad trip.... I hauled my ZO6 out to Memphis and traded it for a 53' trailer... I've done the I-10 from Calif to Texas this year(Hot...ugly...nothingness)...The I-40 Memphis to California (Memphis west goes from lush green to desert...but Laughlin Nevada and Hoover Dam are on the way...Vegas is a short hop North of there) I-70 from Denver to Calif(Holy HELL those passes are brutal...but Vail and Eagle are some of the most beautiful places EVER....If you go I-70 stop in Frisco,Co for some of the best Cajun food ever at the Lost Cajun)...I-70 turns into I-15...VEGAS BABY !!!!!!!....ask me anything you need to know....but the best route for diesel stops is the I-40...they are EVERYWHERE....well except for McClean,Tx....LOL
                Good luck and if you get close to Famoso on Saturday...Calif Hot Rod Reunion will be in full swing !!!!

                Dropped of this(Pic was taken off of I-40 at Berringer Meteor Crater)


                Picked up this just east of Memphis at the Pilot Truck Stop off the I-40


                And met Chad's Dad in Oklahoma to pick up some motors to help load the trailer down...LOL


                It was a total MANVENTURE !!!!.....lots of pics we cannot post......watch The Hangover....ya...our Vegas was like that....LOL
                The Beatings will continue until MORALE IMPROVES !!!!

                      We are still alive! We made it to Amarillo Texas in mostly one peace. I think David is going to put some of the pictures up of some cool stuff we saw all along the way.

                        Hello,
                        Like Garrett said we made it to Amarillo, Garrett and I are trying to drive as much as possible due to Dan's driving style:

                        He tends to bounce from the left rumble strip to the right rumble strip, AT RANDOM ! LOL

                        I feel like a human pinball ball.....................Cummins powered pinball that is ( Got 24 mpg yesterday )

                              Gotta tell ya, David was having the same rumble strip issue! They had the rumble strips right in the white lines in MO and we were ALL having trouble with this.

                              Just Sayin'.......
