Good, we're on the same page then. Make it Advil PM and don't forget the M&M's and beef jerky
Better do 5 hour energy and take it easy on the mega cans of Red Bull, I'm not stopping to pee..

The truck has an 800 mile range, so only stopping for diesel a few times.

Yes but I can't visit customers when I'm out of touch that long....although I really need to change some things in life around since I've not had a full week off since July 2007. Going over 3 years and no real time off is not good.

Is there any room on yours or Peter's trailer for a set of wheels/tires or two. I'd love to talk Mike Carter and Nick into a road trip to hit maybe one of those places.
