I drove it! I got to drive it after being gone on vacation for a week and a half to Alaska…which is worth it for those of you that haven’t been there. Absolutely gorgeous place.

ROAD TRIP!

Maryland to Northwest Illinois… wife, 2 pups and a daughter pick up at O’Hare. 833 miles, $1 Billion in tolls, 16 hours (I think traffic in Chicago accounted for 8 hours).

Gossamer did great ❤❤ love this truck!

?❤
Made it back late last night after a 14 hour straight run home ?, 1970 round trip miles, acceptable MPG for the Illinois back roads and hills of PA and MD. So happy with the performance and ride… for the most part (Eibach Pro Front Coil Overs are still on my want list) Only odd issue was with the Sync system acting freaking possessed.

After 6 days of no Wi-Fi, limited cell service and a ton of windshield time it’s good to be home!

Picks don’t do the bug coverage justice.

Was almost run over.
Here's a good reminder why all the luggage should be always secured.
As camera locates low can't see how close he really was.
That guy planned to go to the lane which was right from me but I messed his plans. Saw him making turn back after escape.
I guess video is visible for you.

Kristina, they drive just like people in the US.

Oh, what kind of wimpy horn is that? :crazy:

I don't know why my cool voice horn like we can hear in @got3fords video didn't activate this time.
So I pressed emergency horn.

Was out running errands with the wife in Big blue today. She even commented that she noticed that it handledbumps a bit better with the Sumo springs intalled. :like: on the way home we saw a motorcyclist get side slammed in front of us. Luckily he wasn't hurt. He was in the right lane next toe at a stop light. When we pulled away from the light he pulled ahead of me. A van pulled out of a side street from the left ahead of me and swung wide into the lane of the cyclist. It bumped him off the road into the grass ditch. Luckily there was no curb or it could have been much worse. Van will probably need a new door skin on that side, bike didn’t look bad as he didn't go down.

I see this so often where people turn onto a multi-lane street and swing all the way across traffic. Also people don't see bikes. The drive probably saw me and judged he had room and never saw the bike. As a motorcyclist my self I am always very alert for motorcycles and other vehicles around me. I have had people pull out in front of me several times and was lucky enough to be able to avoid them.

Hauled some dirt, cut a pool noddle in half to plug the gap between the bed and the cab, hillbilly engineering. Wish I had done that last year when I had a load of mulch

Towed a rented Airstream Bambi 22 foot from Allentown Pennsylvania to Ohiopyle for a week of biking the Great Allegheny Passage rail trail. My wife and I bike about 30 miles a day going out and back from an access point on the rail trail. Did 130 miles in 5 days, stayed at the Yough Lake campground for a quiet time to chill.

Track persona activated, for the weekend The Punk shall be known as Michelangelo.

Started raining about 04:45 as so far still dry. Lots of rain in the forecast for this weekend, will be a good test of the factory seal on this thing.

Picked up 2 cu. yards of dirt for the raised beds I built for my wife's planting obsessions. My little harbor freight trailer didn't like it too much, luckily I didn't need to go on the highway at all.

Also managed to back the trailer up my uphill, curvy driveway. Even needed 4x4 there as it's quite steep and I was going back and forth a lot to get the bloody trailer lined up .

That's sweet! I have to admit, I think I would've cheated. :lipssealed:
