Re: Colorado snow wheeling

That was a fun trip. I pulled out more trucks than normal. Which is rare because usually I'm the one getting stuck. It's pretty cool to have a truck that is open on each end still be able to yank around some Dodges and Jeeps throughout the day.







I guess one benefit to not being locked on each end is I'll get stuck before I snap an axle shaft.

I had my son and his two cousins with me and they had a riot. They were yelling most of the way in the hairy spots. They were worn out by the ride home. 2 out of the 3 napped most of the way back.

While I didn't break anything I did expose a new weakness. Seems like my battery is giving up the ghost and I need to swap the freshly rebuilt q-jet back on. It ran suprisingly well with the old q-jet from my Nova that hadn't been used for at least 5 years.

All in all it was the most fun I've had in the snow in a while.
