7160 WoW makes me wonder what my beast weights
My truck tried to catch fire again.. Luckily my buddy @cashsk5garage had a an fitting in his tool bag...
You can subtract 3 bills for my fat arse. It's back under 7k at that point. But seeing how it don't drive by itself, the number should be with driver on board.
But the truck is loaded for a week. Almost. Haven't picked up beverages or filled the water can. Food isn't on yet either. I've got tools, gear, propane and personal stuff and laptop/camera gear. It's not the camper that adds the weight it's all the crap you fill it with.
You should stop doing that.
All is good now, also took the qtr mile drag strip shift points out of it and now it doesn't want to shift all over the place and dropped about 15 degrees in fluid temp.
I am still thrashing through the country to get there. Solid 14 hour day today. Land in craphole Oklahoma. Tired. Sleep now. I am no longer young.

Keep on truckin!
I noticed this last year but figured it was because of where I was parked. Looks like a bit more weight on the back axle then the front. I can put rollers on the back and get it further towards the front of the trailer. What say the peanut gallery?
@Hosalabad was spotted on I-24 headed west just inside of Kentucky yesterday about 4:30pm.

CK5.com K5 spotted on I-24 at TN/KY line today?
Who was it? Looked like a black K5 with a 70’s front clip, lifted, rollers on it, big tires under it, bumpers, etc. Big CK5.com windshield banner. On a trailer being pulled by a burgundy Super Duty crew cab. This was on I-24 just about the TN/KY line just past Clarksville/Ft Campbell about...

The headwind is killing me. 8 point. 8.1 miles to the gallon this tank. Sitting in 4th gear letting it eat on flat ground
When my father-in-law and I hauled our cuda back from VA we had a choice driving thru Kansas due to headwinds; 4th gear with AC or 5th gear and no AC. We chose the option with AC, fuel mileage be damned. Haha We were towing with a 95 C1500 with a 4.3L.
Still chewing through the miles.
I've got everything maintained and as done as its going to get. See you guys in Utah!
This was in Phoenix finally getting the front tires swapped
