Austin

FTF's #1 Knob Polisher
10,350
297
Cumming, GA
Lessons learned by Austin on this trip:

- Ken likes his bison burger still making whatever noises bison make when it's served on a plate.

- When the Mark hits 3 inches of standing water at 70 mph, she likes to float. To the other lane. Quickly.


Ken was talking up the Mark... he really liked the interior. I tried my best to show it off as we were on the way to get the truck, thinking we could do a trade. Didn't happen. :D

Scott, I didn't even think to bring along my detailing stuffs. As it turns out, I can't even think at 4 am. :D

Brad, Ken and I actually had that conversation when we pulled up to the station. I hate BP for that reason. :suspicious:

Averaged 26 mpg on the way home for a trip average of 24.5... Let's see if Ken can make it to 10. smilietease

Pretty cool Ken - road trips are great especially when you've got a new toy to play with.
That step stool at the servo kinda puts into perspective just how tall the old girl is

She's about the same size as my 77...she's wearing 37's here.

That fawker is going to look tits sitting next to your other one!! Congrats on the truck and it is about time you put up some pics.

Your giving me the damn itch to get back to work on the supercab!!

Thanks Scott! Going to look nice for sure......can't wait to show you the paperwork that came with the rig....I have the original manual and sales paperwork. Belonged to a SC farmer, bought by this wealthy young guy who paid to have it rebuilt 2 years ago then to me!
