    Truck is has whatever comes with the towing package, I'm pretty sure the trans cooler runs in the radiator. We retrieved at at about the 40 mile mark and then hit MILES of the soft stuff. That means mile after mile at 15mph and 2500rpm of which I'm pretty sure the torque converter was unlocked and picking up heat. I could be wrong, it could just be ill equipped for that much rpm or the radiator could be packed full of sand but either way it was sketch AF. No problems the next day leaving on hard pack or even the hills and headwind headed back. I'm definitely going to consider a transcooler and maybe an electric add on for the radiator.

    Alright ladies and gentlemen. As the time approaches, I'd like to get our meeting point for Jambo nailed down.

    I'm up for suggestions (prefer somewhere that we can get gas/ice/stuff)

    Still trying to figure out the route that will best fit our journey.

    Looking like I35 then head east from Waco on 31.

    Swing around Tyler up 64, head east on 20 for a short time then north on 135 to Barnwell.

    How's that sounding @tacopromatt ?

    Traffic will be the big determination I believe. I plan to set Waze to the location and go where it says to. Its been really great to get around traffic.

    Just something to think about @riz_atx

    Running up to DeSoto then heading east on 20 adds an extra 40miles to the trip.

    No biggie, just reporting what I'm finding.
