Oo.



I'm waitin' on my 20k flatbed, so went ahead and put in the Jake, but wanted to haul a tractor over to NH and back on the 7k tagalong end of last week.



My buddy on the other end gave me a route that took me across NH, lots of 40 mph road through the woods, 8% grades with curves at the bottom. Only observation is that I'm gonna have to experiment a little bit to find a way to give some brake lights to the folks behind me without braking down slower than I want to be goin'. S'prised me that it would throw me into the shoulder down when windin' in fourth or below. :D



Guy that helped me put it in but the button up at two o'clock. Seemed to be in the way up there, so I moved it down about 7 o'clock, mebbe 7:30 so's to grab it with my middle and ring fingers from the top or the ring and pinkie from the bottom. That'll leave room for the button for the train horns with a tap from the index finger. Or am I over-thinkin' this? :-laf
 
Mac, you must of been in White Mountains ... lots of nice roads up there. Then above the mountains is the Great North Woods ... good hunting area. Up there people have Pete's, KW, and Mack logging trucks in their driveways like we have Dodges, Fords, and Chevy's ... whole different world up there.



You should try those roads in the winter ... twice the excitment
