I didn't have a problem nor did I have a problem in Colorado with 40k going over the mountain passes and grades more than 7%. You need to read Rocky's writeup on how to come down a mountain. My feet are on the floor in the proper gear and the jake on all the way down.

Uh Steve... I have done this a tad longer than you have. Also I live and run here in the West sooooooo I kinda have an idea of how to run over and down passes and grades including some 9%ers. :roll: :roll:

:shock: Look at that guys Fro. :shock: What's his name again?
Lets paint some mountains here, a little tree there, look... isn't that nice.
Good job, I know you can do it.. When I was younger and came home in the middle of the night, after going out for a few, that guy would be painting on TV all the time. It was like the twilight zone.

On another note Steve. You said you were thinking about some short loads around home. I do a good amount of work here in New England. I do mostly 150 mile loads and less. They pay very good if you pick the right ones. You can rent a Van trailer and stay around your area as long as you like. When your ready, just return the trailer and hit the road again. Just an idea for you. I say rent a van because there is so many Van loads available.

Ok Sid, thanks. I'll keep that in mind although for the moment I'm really enjoying cruising around and it should only get better when spring and summer get here. I don't think I'm ready for NY or any of the other big cities yet. That Boston run I did was enough for me right now. I'll stick to the boonies, I love it out here.
