Well i still have 3 days till the 40 goes on the trailer but i get to go to ATL this weekend for a wedding so i dont get to work this weekend. The truck is ready for the most part I just have to put my front drive shaft in and pack everything else that a week of wheeling requires.
If you see a big ugly white 40 stop me and say hello.

I'll keep an eye out for you, Michael. Will have a big mustard yellow and big blue 40 with me in my big desert tan 40. Our trucks are sorta ugly, but the ugliness seems to increase with each trip to tellico.
