well we finally made the 350+ mile trip to move my stuff ,Whittier to Valdez alaska. truck performed awesome even with 2000lbs in the bed and a 4000lb boat in tow. the trip itself did not start out good though after towing the boat to anchorage the first stop light i blew both front brake lines yikes. got those fixed and picked up the rest of my stuff after getting snowed on over nite. after that the trip went smooth through the mountains only spun a little on an 8% grade just as i was nearing the top but the old girl pulled thru. what a good way to bond with a new truck and the girlfriend
