    I really like the 6 speed. I push it hard and it usually comes through for me. When it doesn't it's my fault. I'm getting 16 - 18 mpg with 33s on a nearly 6,000 pound truck. 13 - 15 when towing a loaded trailer in addition to said weight of truck. I need to regear and I need 2wd low range. 2 low is coming soon!

    4 winter tires, 4 summer, 1 spare, and I had two on the Mad Max trailer but I sold it and kept the wheels. I put the tiny stock ones back on it.

    Another cataraft. My last one is 13 feet long and the tubes are 20" diameter. This one is 14 feet and 25" diameter. It's like going to 35s from stock tires. It'll seem invincible - unless I get too cocky and do something dumb. I did a one off lightweight frame on the little boat, this one will have a legit frame using parts from an actual raft frame company.
