    Not yet we been dealing with some truck issues that we are trying to get all figured out before going North. I have done two trips South so far and been picking away at my list of things to fix. I do have a bunk heater, radio and a couple other things now, but the truck got a good oil leak and developed an exhaust leak that the Cat house will be fixing the next couple of days. Freight seems to be slow to AK as well at this point.

    Ouch! Sorry to hear that, tow. As long as you're okay. Must have been a pretty good-sized deer. Ah, you're going to take a ribbing once this is sufficiently behind you. Officer tow goes home on a hook... you are okay, right??

    Lol...thx.. was able to avoid the hook though.. thanks to these cheap plastic bumpersI was able to break it all off and go.. will be heading to the shop in the morning for repairs.. bumper and headlight is all.. could have been worse. The police and wrecker guy were very helpful.
    Deer came out of the median and I never saw him until he was in my headlight. Nice buck too. Dont know where he went...

    Oh no.. the bad guy never got away... I climbed out of my car and still caught him.. he actually pissed his pants when I placed my weapon in his ear and advised him of his rights. He told my friend who took him from me that he thought for sure he was dead.. I think all the blood on my face was real convincing.. the deer on the other hand I must confess made a get away all be it not a clean one...
     
    The Challenger and Victor_V Thank this.
