    Also found out on the trip... Towing the 22' boat is a beast in the runner. Was fine at 60 mph or less, but trying to not die on 35 traffic at 70 was fun. Averaged 7.4 mpg :cool::bananadead:. Boat is back at brother in law's.

    He also just picked up a Tesla model S... Those are fuuuuun. Instantaneous torque is awesome:bananadance:

    Only thing I can offer is east of 35 the soil is softer and you have to water your foundation in dry months. West of 35 doesn't have that problem because of the limestone.

    Good to know. All limestone here now. Sucks for doing any yardwork... Planting anything requires TNT and :muscleflexing:

    Same here. 35 sucked. Lots of stop and go the last 65 miles... Not much other options though. Avoid getting on frontage road. We tried once and it was a bad decision. Multiple people drove through ditch to get back to interstate. Hopefully it moves faster than yesterday
