well...after compounding about a quarter of the boat ..i decided i was too old to finish it lol...so gonna wait for a buffer :) so i just gave the boat and truck and good washing instead.

i'm waiting on parts to fix my motor...if i had them i'd definetly be working on it instead of cleaning...i called the guy who i bought it from and he has a parts motor he is gonna give me...i got a fried power pack and couple other probs....i'm about to learn how to fix a outboard lol

heres a few pics..

I really am happy with this truck *;D

My SUPER DUTY is an 03, 4X4, FX4, diesel, short bed, crew cab. I have just gotten back from Va I towed about 6000 pounds 2000 miles and I have never owned a truck like this one. It is the best engineered vehicle I have ever owned. I don't want to get flamed here but I did actually have it on the govenor for a few minutes @ about 96 mph, on average I went about 75mph, over all MPG was 11-12 mpg. it would have been a lot better if I was not in such a hurry.

I tow mine 70 to 75 all the time! I have a need for speed! I have had the boat to 100 before, I was in a hurry to get home before my daughter got off the school bus, I had forgot about her, and she was just 10 at the time.

all lubed up baby!! I never leave home with out the grease gun!!

Should have been there the day when I was going 70 and the tire on the trailer fell off!! :o

I was going along and I see this tire rolling by?? I look in my mirror to see sparks flying all over!
I had my old full size Blazer at the time, never felt a thing! I would have draged it till the triler was gone before I know anything if I didn't see the tire go by me.

that very next spring is when I got the brand new trailer!
