    My first tow

    I finally hooked something to the back of the truck for the first time. Granted it was just my ice shanty that I just built out of a pop up camper. Came out pretty cool I must say. I figure it probably weighs 800 to 1000lbs. Pretty easy for a diesel truck right? WRONG!! My truck seemed like...

    Leaky Injectors
