Yea, I got to drive on the edge of a storm in the middle of the night in New Mexico I think and almost hit a deer with the trailer, co-pilot works for me, I always drive everywhere, it's good going with Dick and his coffee mug, he hardly ever gets tired and I get to look at the scenery, Thanks Dick..Frank

Was a pleasure being co-pilot. My only problem is I am half deaf or more and could not hear you. Is that a bad thing?

Had a great time motoring with Dick . The second trip his TPS sensor decided to act up causing erratic shifting of the trans going up over the mountain roads in CO. on the way home . Trailer was loaded with pumps and we were not sure if we would make it home. Dumped a couple of pumps off the trailer in Las Vegas at a second home to lighten the load to california. wink
We made it without trans damage!!
How many miles are on thet trans now Dick? My first went out out 90K and the second now has about the same but it still feels strong.

I can't wait for Iowa Gas. This is always a great show with lots of rare items. I will be there again this year with several unrestored gas pumps, 15 or so, and maybe a few pump parts depending on what I can haul. I will also have a few smalls and oil cans.

One of my favorite parts of the trips have been stopping at different places along the way, I have met some great people on these trips, It's fun to stop and visit, hopefully buy something or just visit for a while. One of my favorite stops is with Andy and Dianne at Gas pump Heaven, They have always treated us Great with the tour of the shop and the pump graveyard outback, I always try to get all the parts I need while there and then it's off to their home and then Dinner, Always a great time then off to Des Moines, Hopefully I'll go next year again...Frank

"Will miss the Warm Beer & Jody"
What about me Dick?
Seriously...that sucks that you can't make it DB. How about you fly out like Scott "First Class" Wright and have others bring your goodies home. LOL!
I'll be there...but probably broke! Like many others works been slow. Just grateful to still have a job right now.
Take care DB!
