Wanted to make it down to the meet-n-greet last weekend but couldn't make it. So now the plan is to drive down Thursday, do some repairs early Friday and start the trip back. It's only 999 miles each way. Can I get some if you guys to sit by the road in your lawn chairs and wave as I go by?

Just a thought, but you could consider getting Jeepsinker to bring it up to my place near Chattanooga and then Gimpy to bring it from my place up to you. They both need to come back for more.

What is your route back?

I'm a few miles off of I-59 between Birmingham and Chattanooga if you go that route. PM for contact info if needed.

Jeff has some 5 ton tires for me if you want to deliver them.

I'm about 5 hours by car....prob a little more by 5 ton....from Jeff's. If you leave Jeff's place late you would be welcome to layover here for the night.

I would give that invite some thought, WM is a VERY strange fellow, just REMEMBER what WM and the GIMP do to possums.

Great idea but how are you going to put that many 14.00s on a wrecker? And how do I get my goats?

Just a quick search looks like 59 to 65 to 71. Almost a straight shot. I am planning a stop in N. Tenessee. I'll see how the schedule plays out. Right now I am thinking just a car as a chase vehicle so what will fit on the deck is the only option. I can see how many goats I can fit in the trunk on the way down.

I guess I missed the part about the wrecker aspect. Sell him that M105 trailer....should be able to get four tires in it.

And it's a no go on the goats.....the Boss Lady said no trading critters for green iron......dammit.

Left about 9 this morning. 18 degrees. Stopped a couple times for gas...$1.95 and $1.89. Saw a hot Santa's helper in a cucv. Must have been doing 73 mph...anyways,realized I was in Cincinnati.
