Evening Don.... The wife just requested my best Don voice impersonation today. I think she misses you... She says she has a thing for cowboys...

 

Thanks for the photos.......

Days like that are so nice.........

 

Thanks Roy. I'd say it's up there with one of the best days of the year for the family. Fun day for momma and I then great evening with the monster.

 

Great pics Rodney!

I like the solar system install Steve! Looks very clean...

That's going to be a nice ride Randy!

 

Thank Andre. Still adding to the code on the monitor I made. So far I can't communicate with the Renogy controller on it's data port so not sure if it has an issue there. I am monitoring the current/voltage for the batteries and broadcasting it onto the trailer network. I have a working Pi-WinIoT setup that displays the data and historical chart. More work to do on that yet. Been a few years since I did any coding so it's fun getting back into it.

 

I gave in today. After the delay I've been experiencing with the '17 I ordered, I pulled the trigger on a '16 am hour ago. I need to bring the tractor back from TN and the local dealer gave me 1000 of the holdback and more than fair deal on my F150 for trade. I'm sure it will work great.

 

Looks sharp Carl. I see some 17's in the background of one of your pics. It's too bad yours got held up. You're not alone. Some guys that ordered in April are still waiting. Some guys that ordered in August have their trucks. There is no rhyme or reason to it.

 

Thanks Rodney. I think it will work out. It doesn't have all the technology I ordered on the '17, but it has what I need to move the tractor in comfort. Now I need to hit the auction circuit and find a decent gooseneck this weekend. It felt so coming up the mountain with hardly any boost. It is definitely a bit different than the 3.5L EcoBoost.....

They had a fully maxed out every option 450 KR someone ordered. Paid list....84K. That what you are looking for, right....��

 

Great looking truck and congratulation on the new beast! The 6.7L smile lasts a long time.

bruce...

 

Great pics Rodney!

Nice truck Carl!

 

Here's an odd pic from just now in my front yard. Fall or Winter? You're call...IDK...

 

Looks like my yard except we have a bit less for leaves and a bit more for snow.

Nice work on the lawn pattern though.

 

I ordered my pallet of ice melt today....thanks for the heads up guys...

 

Guess I need to take a day off from trimming the arborvitaes.

 

Carl, beautiful truck!!!

I'm worried about the '17s as far as height goes with the 5er. I told my wife that if I had to get a new one today, I would certainly consider a '16 instead of a '17. The guy at the repair facility has a brand new Duramax dually and his 5er doesn't have a pin box long enough or tall enough to give him a comfortable clearance on his bed rails. That is why he wants mine if i buy a new TrailAir for mine.
I've looked at the '17s, just haven't driven one yet. Almost afraid to.

Rodney, I'm sorry your camping season came to a close so quickly, but that snow is beautiful in the pic and in the text. But, I think at this point in the year, I'll take our record warmth of 80-85*..
