Mark, that is a really cool setup! I'm picturing something like that on the back of the M1028. Hmm......

A man in command of his ego. Good for him.I stopped by Tractor Supply the other day my M931A2. A guy with a tricked out 4x4 pickup pulled up and parked next to me, he got out and said "Just when I thought my truck was the coolest, most capable one around, I see yours! Sheesh, you just look down at my roof!!". He had a big smile, though, and we talked trucks for a bit.

The folks who have enough self confidence love our trucks. The ones who are trying to prove something and get upset when they get bested...well, we can just feel sad for them and be generous.

There are some of them out there.
We all like trucks, who knows why?!
Interesting note, Chaplain, thank you!There is a Spiritual Gift at work in one who presents him or herself with meekness as Jesus did. Jesus was described as being "meek". By its most true definition, meek is NOT weak. But it IS strength under control. Let's remember that Jesus was raised in a carpentry shop along side Joseph. He was in good physical condition for those labors. Even before His ministry had him WALKING everywhere He traveled, He presented not as a weak man, but as a strong Presence under control and restraint. Do you recall the time He got "table-flippin'-mad"?
It's 7 hours for me but looks about 10 from your place. You definitely need to spend more than a day or 2 there to make it worthwhile. I was hoping for a week this time but things didn't pan out and I doubt I'll make it back for several years.I wish it weren’t so darned far. I’d do that trip in a heartbeat if it were closer, or if we could find something similar that was closer. The distance is a deal killer for me, and apparently, most everyone else.
It’s too bad, I bet that is one beautiful and unforgettable trip.
RAJ LMTV did it last you from Ft Worth but split the drive into 2 days. I don't think I can do that even then with my LMTV. Any trips of that length from now on are in the POV or riding with someone else.That doesn’t sound promising!
i thought it was more like 12, but, really after 8, I’m not really able to consider it. I made a 6.5 hour work trip in the truck a week ago and it’s a beating. I’m just not nearly as tough as I once was. Nowhere near as tough!
Maybe I need a good 2 days in The Hill country. Go over the Devils Backbone (saw an OLD one ton pulling a single-wide through the devils backbone once!) should have checked the news that night. 50:50 odds they didn’t make it.
Something to to break up the trip. Make it doable.
