Yesterday was a good test for our new truck. We finally left about 10:30 am and got down to Boerne about 7:00 pm, fortunately it stays light here until about 9:30 pm! We varied our speed as required for a new truck and reached 1000 miles around 6:00 last night! We reached temperatures of 111 degrees and the truck handled the heat with no problem (engine and inside cab). We enjoyed our Sirius radio all day and even talked a couple of times on the hands free phone! The new truck rides so much smoother than the old truck, it is great! Everything worked like it's supposed to and we are keeping our fingers crossed! Of course one drive does not a truck make! Our old truck started great (not smooth but problem free) until it reached the two year, 60,000 mile mark! It was down hill after that! So we shall see but we are feeling positive vibes from it!!! LOL
We have been slow starting this morning but are heading over to spend Fathers day with John, Ted's cousin's husband! He is actually cooking for us!
The deer here are still abundant and we even saw a tiny little fawn that still had it's spots, about the size of our dog Max but with skinny legs!
Breathing a little easier with the new truck..."Ain't Life Grand!"
