    For a trail only rig, absolutely.

    But I don't think I'd start with a Taco for that.

    Probably. If I'm really planning it, I'll start with a bender, a V8 and a truck load of steel tube.

    Funny enough, I used to have an F350 with front leafs, it wasn't too bad a ride, IMO. It was definitely a truck though, until you put about 3/4 ton in the back, then it floated like grandpa's Cadillac

    Nice. Being kept in the lifestyle I'd like to become accustomed too is definitely a goal I have for HH6's career.

    We had a competition going for a while to see who would get to be the stay at home parent. She won, which is good, 'cause she's way happier.

    I'll be getting there semi late on Friday night, and heading home after wheeling Saturday.

    Unless you go LT. One day.

    But it can be useful. Travel is travel.

    That's why I wanna go that direction. Gain extra travel, can still crawl through most, and can do fun go fast shit. But no, compared to SAS it can't crawl as well.
