Dude,
What an awesome looking rig ! I can't figure which is going to look cooler... the boat in the water or the truck towing the boat !

Ike,
Nice boat! I've seen War Party here in Chicago. That is one awesome boat.

Did you reprogram the computer for the 285's? I have a 2500HD and need to upgrade my tires.

Thanks candyman35, I did not touch anything after i put on the tires and had no problems at all, feels normal after 800 miles.
Fred, Ted ended up with a 99 45ft wellcraft excaliper, very nice.

Ike, Awesome boat man...I have been looking at that boat forever...certainly one of the nicest airbush jobs I have ever seen! Congrats and good luck with it.!

Fred...I was just reminded of you...the fridge in the big Wellcraft is a Norcold, but I coudn't tell what model it is. Hope this helps.

Fred same engines but they are now 588's and I think the combo is around 16,000lbs.
