    Dennis, no worries about cruisin' up here with only the front wheels pulling this year. How is the new big truck working out?

    The new truck is not getting the mileage I thought it would but definately has the pulling power. I can't wait to go through the mountains this year. Last year, going up some of those mountains, the throttle was on the floor and couldnt get any more than about 48 mph in second gear.

    Problem with all that add on power tuning stuff is that Ford will permanently void your warranty if they see it. I'll have to wait a while before I can do anything like that.
