Road Trip!

We are getting packed up to leave Las Vegas and head back home to Fairbanks, AK. Total mileage should be around 3600 miles. We are going to shoot for 4&1/2 days this time. Last time we did the trip in our sport trac in 3&1/2 days, but wore ourselves out on the final stretch. I'm getting a snug top and the bed rug installed right now, and taking one of the last loads to storage in the sport trac before taking it to the dealership that is buying it tonight.

If ya see us on I15, make sure to wave! We'll be going straight north to Edmenton then north west to Alaska.

Thanks guys! Got the truck back with the new mods. Man she looks even better with the smooth bed now. Here's a couple of pictures of the snug top SL and bed rug. The carpet colors match up perfectly!





Can't wait to get that supercharger now!!!

Your rig looks great as usual and the new tonneau seals the seal.

Have a great trip.

I am taking mine to Canada next month for fishing. But its only 1200 miles away.

04Red, it's tough to see over the steering wheel, so I just look through it. I don't know why, but I get honked at alot. The hood scoop isn't helping the situation any.



Thanks for the compliments guys! I'll give a full report when we get settled down in Fairbanks.
