What did you do to your truck today?

[drperry]

Towed this '78 car (I didn't even look at what it was) with a 400 (maybe?) in it. Got 15mpg for the round trip! Way better than I was expecting. That's doing 65 for 55mi and 60 for 30mi each way. The truck squatted 3" (from 36" to 33"). Took my time accelerating and braking (trailer has e-brakes). It couldn't have gone better!

I can't wait for the day when I get the Whipple and some airbags installed!!!


Just ordered some Husky Liners floor liners for the ZR2 for the winter.

What do you run for a brake controller?

Hopkins 47225 Brake-Force that can power up to 6 brakes (so 3 axles I'm guessing). I haven't used a controller before this one, but I like it. It gets the job done and is extremely easy to use and effective. My buddy actually bought it for when we first went all the way to Milwaukee (a 3 1/2hr drive) to get the '73 Monte Carlo so I really didn't have a say in the controller.

I have a Tekonsh P3... I haven't even been able to use it
Everything I've towed since I bought it hasn't had functional brakes

Put 100$ worth of gas in it. And I am pissed. The last station in the area that sold ethanol free gasoline now has ethanol. So I have no choice but to put that ethanol shit in my truck now.

Get it re-tuned for ethanol?

Got called into work for 2hrs since the dishwasher didn't show up. I did the work in 1/4 the time it would have taken the other person.

Painted the plastic on the front of the truck back to black, and went on a beer run with it
