    I'm the same way, as long as I have some breeze (wind, to our eastern coastal friends :p) I'm good. Take it away, I'm as good as done.

    We're not going to be quite that high. But at these temperatures, does a couple degrees really matter???

    I literally thought that just after I asked...

    Who am I kidding, right?

    It’s like going from a twenty year old coupe into a new fresh rental car... new gizmos and gadgets and you can’t drive them the same even if you want too. But no, I should be perfect after 500 miles :rolleyes:

    Funny you say that. Reminds me when I was dating my wife, I’d drive to Houston to see her. They’d have dangerous wind warnings with up to 15 mph gusts.

    I told her 15 mph is considered calm where I’m from.

    Alright, where's the spot to park for the evening in Jacksonville? And a good place to eat and possibly drink a beer?

    Good luck.

    Well in a way, the KW had a 565 isx which in its own right is a puller. But beside my ol 4 an a twarter it is slow coming out of the hole so I would mash it too long and next thing you knew I was cookin pretty fair.


    @1951 ford is right I really only 2 ways hammer down or on the pillow

    First time I ever bobtailed in a 9900 with a 500 hp N14 I looked down and I was running 80+ and wasn't meaning to. Those were some strong motors.
