Didnt you ask me to borrow my EB Friday night to pull that heavy boy scout trailer? Something about the 5slow would only run 55 pulling it.

I'm sure all the bad weather just makes it worse. Would for me.

Just finished the yard work...perfect weather in the low 70's so after mowing I took a ride on the atv. Finishing up with the decorating after lunch and then have to attend a band concert that my grandson is in at 6PM. Don't know how I did all these things when I was working!!

I got all the leaves mulched last Sat and Sun and they yard is covered again. If I didn't love trees, I would cut them all down. Have to cut the neighbors too, their leaves blow our way.

The wife has a crew that comes out every couple of weeks and weeds the gardens and do some trimming(which I hate to do) they ought to be here in a few minutes. If the weather is still warm tomorrow I'll do some pressure washing to get the vinyl trim looking good.

It would be interesting for comparison sakes, but we're running a light crew this weekend, so trailer will be a little lighter. Wouldn't want to go too easy on the EB.


Of course the EB would have to be on stock tune for it to even be close to apples to apples comparison. Or you could buy me a tuner for my truck too
