You keep throwing softballs
Took the truck out for a club run last weekend. I had my youngest son drive all day on the trail. He managed to find some inner fender that needed to be trimmed back further.
Still marveling over how much smoother the front drive shaft runs.
As I was riding with him I kept thinking the truck didn't seem to be climbing as easily as normal. I kept asking him if both the Magnum and 205 were in low and he said yes. Of course I never thought to look for myself. When we finished for the day and I went to shift everything into high, found the Magnum was still in high. We did the entire trail with just the 205 in low. The old 454 wouldn't have been able to pull that off, but the GenVI just ate it up.

Big blocks rule!
