One thing I would suggest before Shelbyville next year is to get some radial tires on the boat trailer before you leave! I don't think the ply tires that come on the trailer will make there and back.

Imagine how you would feel if you had a Tundra. It pulled the space shuttle.

Looks great! I am convinced that it is hard to find a bad truck these days. I like the fuel economy of the Fords. The thoughtfulness of the interior of the Chevys and the looks of the Rams! I think the Toyotas are still good trucks but the Americans have finally surpassed them.

Speaking of Shelbyville, @BAC.94 we missed you and your family this year. Are you planning on attending next year?

I bought Goodyear Marathons in July 2012 after one of my OEM bias ply tires blew out. I have about 3,500 miles towing them so far, they pull like a dream and still look brand new.
