Haha, I love it! Different to hear the turbo whistling, I'd bet most in attendance had never seen a dually burn out quite like that before!

Thanks I built it to use it!! If your not going to use it, make a model takes way less money and space. lol

lower50's · 06-29-2017, 07:54 AM

One week today we hook the trailer to the GMC and head to Columbus Ohio for the weekend. 430 miles one way should be a great road trip. Also planning on stopping in at Summit racing on the way home.

Thanks Jim. I'm sure we will it will be my GF, dog and I. First long road trip this year, get to use my cruise control.

**Dieselwrencher** · 07-03-2017, 08:16 PM

Have a blast! We just did Des Moines. It's really close for us but it's my favorite show to go to all year.

RockinKees · 07-08-2017, 05:19 PM

Have fun at Goodguys Lower!!
I've already seen some pics on IG, looks great!!

lower50's · 07-10-2017, 07:56 PM

Thanks Ryan and Kees
My GF, dog CJ and myself had a great trip!! Went 335 miles on my first tank of 24gal pulling the trailer, works out to 14mpg. Ran into a few extreme thunder storms along the way. Only problem we had was my cooling fan died about 1/4 the way there. Piece of junk didn't even last 5500 mi. As long as we kept moving we where ok. Bought a new one at Jegs and put it in back at camp all good. The show was huge, over 6500 vehicles, no way you could see them all. Met a bunch of very nice people, had a lot of people say how impressed they where with my truck. Could be the nicest thing anybody had ever said. Stopped at Summit on the way home bought a locker for my Jeep. Wow what a toy store, between that and Jegs you guys in the US are spoiled it's a giant toy store for gear heads. We did just over 1000mi in 3.5 days and spent $180 on fuel. Truck is still running strong. Oh and I might marry my cruise control.

I could not believe Jegs was right next to the show, I could not have planed that.

Ya new/old they all have issues. My father inlaw travel's with a 2011 Silverado and it is always broken in the shop, and he takes very good care of it. So having a issue here and there I don't care, fix and move on.

**Dieselwrencher** · 07-11-2017, 04:00 PM

Very cool to hear you had a good trip! That's awesome mileage for sure. Those modified big rat rods are getting pretty popular. I kind of want to do one.
