Road Trip!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got the Jamboree All Truck Nationals this weekend in Lincoln NE... Trying to decide if I wanna make the 6 hour trip..... Drove the truck about 300 miles over the last weekend trying to get cofidence back in it. It fell on its face once going down the highway after let up on the gas and getting right back in it. Don't know why its doing that and it's not a regular thing at all. Just a long damn way to go all by yourself.... Three days to decide.

If I was a little closer, I'd make that trip with ya. I ain't good for much other than a little bit of conversation but at least you wouldn't be ridin by yourself.
Have fun if you do decide to go.

Driving it anywhere is not the problem. LOL Its the tow bill if it breaks down 400 miles from home. I'm leaning towards going.

Hey if you decide to go and your truck breaks down, you don't need to have it towed all the way back home.... just have it towed here!

I'm only an hour or so east of Lincoln.

Mudder...tripple a is a pretty good deal. If you get the upgraded package, they will tow you quite a distance, and no BS paper work involved either.
Plus, if you call them to get coverage, they will ask you if you need towed as you are first sighning up...I'll asume they will dop that as soon as the policy is entered into the computer.
Just a thought.
Then again, I still don't have it on my turd.

I know exactly what you are saying there Mudder, I broke down 250 miles from home, had to hitch a ride home, and left the poor GMC sittin at a feed store in the middle of nowhere Tx for a month.
Sad sad days.
