Nice one bschmid2... just need to swap your spare wheel to the "correct" side of the trailer so you don't get cleaned up if you ever have to use it on the side of the road! My pic does not show it (old) but have done it since.

Nice ride Wet Dogg, that should pull the 260 well. I'm willing to bet you scored a sweet deal on that thing given the way full size vehicles have been selling.

Rob...thanks for the compliments...so far we really love the truck. Have not towed the boat yet but I am sure it is going to do great. Yes...my deal was amazing. 18k mile on it...paid about 47% of original sticker price. Went all the way to Elgin, IL to get it.

Did you upgrade to a 260?

Sorry for confusion, my mistake...Only the truck was upgraded.

Here's a shot of my tow vehicle. Not the most practical unit but a lot of fun to drive when not towing! :D

Will be looking to change into a 4x4 in the New Year to make life a little easier on those slippery ramps.

The funny thing is - I didn't notice the burnout marks until I loaded the photo onto this board.....

I was moving the boat from home to the warehouse it gets stored inside and just pulled over on the way to get a shot of the car with the boat on the back.

Blow me down another petrolhead had obviously been there earlier up to no good!

Funny isn't it? We like to go to a cold place with snow for holidays, but you have had enough of the cold. ost of the last week in Brisbane has peaked daily at 36C (about 100 in your language).

I envy the warmth! We have plenty of cold here...this week is averaging 20 degrees F all week. With a dusting of snow every few days.

Makes me look forward to summer! Despite the cold, we have boated around the mid-west USA, and nothing really beats Michigan boating.
