Great job with the pics BJ!! I had forgotten all about the awards! Who won what? Who won the best of show? It's pretty obvious who won the longest distance driven!!
Miss havin yah down the road BJ - being in Chicago land next year it woulda been nice to have a convoy partner...

I'll start a new post just for the awards. Yup, "The Four Horsemen" have yet to ride out of Bowling Green, but tonight is their last night there.

BJ thank you so much. I was running like a chicken with my head cut off most of the weekend and you were a huge help.:hail

Got a call from Mel, The Moose Train made it to Canton OH to visit some friends. It seems that the Moose Truck has been devloping a driveline vibration, So Mel was able to check it out tonight after dinner and sure enough, Bad front "U" joint. Since it is the one that is connected to the GearVendors, it is a not a stock "U" joint, so they found an Auto Zone that was open late. After spending some time matching up "U" joints they found a match.

He will be able to install it tomorrow and be back on the road.

I also got a call from Ron, and they are back home safely as well, with only a minor probpem, but I will let him elaborate on that when he has a chance.

Still waiting to hear from Chris.

He must have donated the spare ones that he carries for emergencies to some poor hapless soul and forgot to replace them in his emergency kit.:dunno

That's just a stock 6.9 with a ZF-5, 3:54 Rear and 31" tires. It dropped to 27mpg when we got into PA's mountains on I-80, but I'm not going to complain. We just got home, so I've got tons of reading and catching up to do.
