Truck Haven for Thanksgiving '07

[FROADER]

I think the bluff is a good idea since it will be a "busy" weekend out there.

 

[Diff Whack Daddy]

Sounds good, can you post the directions/GPS coords again if you have thenm.

 

[FROADER]

I don't have the coordinates, and I can't seem to find that map I made before. If you're coming down the 86S make a right on to S22 and it will be on your right as you start to climb. I'll make another map when I find the pic.

Somewhere there is that pic that was taken from Jefe's plane of the spot mapped out on it:scratch:

Put me in the maybe column too

I think you have been in the Maybe column for just about every run in the last year.

That's what I was looking for. I think that was the thread that Rick accidentally deleted instead of a single post. I don't think I saved that pic either. I found the pic on Jefe's site, so I'm going to color code another map.

[FROADER]

Ok, I morphed the pics together and saved it this time.

[cybergasm]

[Exploderpilot]

[Maniak]

Woohoo...

I just went from a No way to a definatly posibility.. I'm a firm maybe leaning more towards Yes I'm going.. When do people get out there?

[FROADER]

It usually depends on their plans. I should be out there Friday afternoon if I'm going at all. Some will get there Fri. and some Sat.

 

[Tbars4]

...a quick shout to maniak, thank you and i found the scorpion...i owe you big time and i appreciate it...
....now back to your thread that is already in progress...

 

[FROADER]

I just found out that I'm 95% out of luck for a trailer this weekend. So I'll have to drive the Explorer, again if I'm coming at all.

 

[Maniak]

I have a trailer but nothing to pull it with.. So I'm going to be driving the X out again also.. I haven't been able to find a rental that I can tow with.

[FROADER]

Is the van not up to par for towing?

 

[Maniak]

my 84 e-150 (locked) van has been sitting for a while and I've started selling parts off it.. I sold the Offenhauser intake, and Holley carb. The aux fuel tank is going soon and so are the seats.. As much as I like the van when I rounded off the #6 lobe on the cam I figured it was time to retire it for good.

My '91 van was just for parts (I wanted the steering box)..

My chevy flatbed has a bad cam too (aparently its common on the chevy 350's). Thats what I was using ot tow the X to the crown king run back in april.. The Explorer ended up pulling the trailer home and AAA pulled the truck home. It was a 98 mile tow.. just got under the wire for my AAA plus membership tow.

I checked with truck rental places (budget etc) and if I return it to where I got it they want me to rent it "local" which means I pay for mileage. The enterprise vans (car rental ) don't have tow hitches so I don't think I can use them.
