Trip was a lot of fun!! Met up with MikeP at Redding... tricked him into going to look at a "the ultimate PT Mustang" <I was sure he would pound my face once he walked all around in the heat to see it>.... For you No. Cal dudes -- Cool April Nights is a "must do" show! 1852 registered cars... and an amazing cruise with so many people watching! Holy cow... never thought that many people could come stand on the sidewalks to watch cars drive by.


Truck is easy to operate.... IF... you use your head. This is about the tortoise and the hare... the cars whiz by.. you just plug along... sometimes I'd see the same cars pass me 3 and 4 times in a day. Crazy.


Had to call Rodger to ask about the jake brake... mine seemed "lazy" and mostly useless... today I figured out that if you slipped the tranny in "L" then the jake kicks on... Why they'd set it up this way I have no clue - but now that I've found it... it works great.



The living quarters has 4 corner auto leveling -- pretty slick! Push a button and these legs drop down = and the whole truck starts doing a bit of a dance as they level up... Sweet!















Me and the big rigs... I hate fueling... truck stops are filthy nasty places.... I just fuel and go!
