Colorado Pictures Finally Up!!!!!

I’ve finally got the pictures on our website from our trip to Colorado. You may remember a few weeks ago my comments about how well the Cummins ran at elevation. Well here are some pictures. Hope you have time to enjoy.

That place is still just as pretty as it was many years ago when I made my first trip through there. Your ATV's probably made it a little easier then my long bed pickup did. I hope you will always remember your trip as fondly as I still remember mine.

believe it or not it is a sony 3.3 MP cybershot that i've had for a couple of years. i keep wanting to buy a new one but i can't really justify it. we took the memory stick to a one hour photo and the pictures look just like a 35mm camera. i've been real happy with it. you can find them on ebay for around $200 now but i paid $700 new.

the model # is: DSC-F505V


hope this helps!

like I said... heaven on earth!

I'm up here in Creede right now. My truck's been doing really well up here... It'll sputter a little if I lay into it too quick at the wrong RPM... I think it's just a lack of oxygen allowing the fuel to try to put the fire out. I've got 370's, a #0 plate full forward, and my AFC stuff is full forward, so it DUMPS fuel quick!

but it's only happened a couple times. I'm actually able to control the smoke a lot better than I thought I would!!! The biggest problem I've got is that the EGT's get nuts in a hurry!!!

we went to Lake City the other day to get ice cream cones and a bottle of Grey Goose (it's a lot cheaper there than in Creede!)

my little old 2wd w/ an open diff has been doing fine on these mountain roads, but seeing everyone out here w/ their jeeps, buggys, and quads are making me want to drag a 4x4 of some sort up here next summer. It's been a long time since I've been over any of the big passes!!!

I opened the link, and that was the first pic I saw. I was beginning to wonder what kind of trip you went on.

Great pics! I'd love to visit that area sometime.

I wonder what the story is behind those 300C's??? Michigan plates... blacked out large diameter wheels... Sport (R/T) package prototypes?

BiggRigg,

i wondered about that myself. the best i could tell was that the 300's were AWD and the guys driving them were from the factory and on a long test drive. i tried to talk to one of them but they didn't want to talk about them. also if you notice, there was a quad cab srt 10 dodge ram. they haven't come out with those yet and there isn't anything on the dodge website about a quad cab srt 10. i thought it was pretty interesting myself.

DON'T take it off lol, it is great. I love how you can not see who the hand belongs too, it just creeps over and grabs the butt. I just dont know why this pic tickles me so much, but it does
