    80 is supposed to still be good today and tomorrow, that's the furthest I almost trust the forecast

    I'd rather go with 29 over 25, I hate Denver. Not to mention that Kansas is expensive to drive across.

    With loading west of Lawrence I had to deal with Kansas regardless of which way I ran, and personal experience over multiple years has shown Denver to be a cakewalk on Thanksgiving day.

    Dual tanks yes. C6 auto.

    Will get the strip and tow planetary gears when I redo it.

    when I regear the rear it will most likely get an air locker. If I can't do it with an airlock and good tires I need to not do it with my truck........

    I have not crawled under to find out current gearing.

    Need to gear it up a little,,,, sucking on the secondaries at modern highway speed.

    Basically need to re-gear from when the truck was built and we had a nation wide 55mph speed limit.

    Thats good to hear the pallets physics are way better. That was my biggest gripe with the game. Being able to make the worker drive places and load/unload is so cool. Plus they added seasons to the base game. U are right the maps are way bigger which is so nice. Overall they finally made a great base game and didn't really on mods to complete the game

    Sounds like it might have 410s or 411s in it now... I would probably go to 373s or 375s, that should give you a very noticable difference at highway speeds without sacrificing too much low end torque.
