Finally got out to play...

Finally got things together this spring and made it out over the long weekend to ride the ATV's, relax and watch the grandkids have some fun. Due to the crowds, we were put in a tent area of the campground we stayed in. The truck looked so nice I had to take a picture and share it.

We had a great time. The truck did its thing without a bit of complaint. It is so nice to tow with something that is not a fight to steer down the road.

Hope everyone had a great memorial weekend....

rbrettctd - looks familiar hehehe - interesting as the sleeper looks to be a bit shorter and narrower... looks nice though. I tell you though, the sleeper is nice. Mine has a bed and then tool bins below. When we cut the sleeper to fit over the frame, the center portion was reduced to about 8 inches that passes al the way from side to side.

airmen65 and loco one Thanks for the compliments. There has never been money owed on the truck .

My wife and I looked a few years ago for a replacement. Never could justify the $$. I am happy with the truck. It still is stock though I will probably put some guages on this summer. Once that is done - who knows - I might even put a toe onto the slipperly slope..... If I go there, I will optimize it for my towing.

Just watch out, the slope is slipperier than you think

Nice truck BTW

Of course the slope is slippery, especially when its straight down and you can't see the edge.

HappyCamper, Nice truck!

The background of the picture with the truck looks very familiar to me, any chance you were at East Canyon Resort?

The resort is a Camperworld RV Park located in Nephi Canyon east of Nephi 5 miles or so. A few years ago it was a KOA. It was nice, though it was pretty full because of the holiday weekend.

Thanks for the compliments...
