    :wave: I know I'm breaking at least my CVs. I'm praying I don't cut a tire or roll the truck. :eek:

    It will be since you're going to be towing a load near the limit of your truck. Plus with your bigger tires with stock gearing, we might not be able to maintain speed. I might be surprised though. :D

    Erm...Dunno if that would work. He's coming from the pan-handle. I thought we'd be jumping on to US301 in Ocala and running up to I10 just outside of JAX before we got on I95. Could meet us where I10 and US 301 meet though.

    I'll never do a RTT because I'm scared of heights. My truck bed is perfect for me. Hoping to pick up a bed mat in FL in a few weeks.

    Andrew, you might have to change the name of this thread to "big ass south east meet 2016!!" Or something around that manner.

    Sounds like a truck bed tent would be right up your alley. :cool:
    I've seen them for around $250 too. Much more cost effective than a RTT.

    I have one. May have snapped a pole though, but luckily my buddy brought duct tape. Easy and quick fix. Apparently I'm better off without directions when it comes to putting it together. Heh.

    Should be fairly mild/cool hopefully. But sometimes its 70-80 during the day in spring. SC is unpredictable.
