So she had her first outing. I was a little nervous cause it was a long trip for her first big trip, but she did great going down. Poked along at 65 MPH never a hitch. Found out that neither fuel gauge reads real right and I don't have a good feeling yet where empty is so I fill her up every 150 miles or so. I will get out the tape measure and measure the fuel tank sometime in the next week to put a real idea on fuel capacity of the tank. It was a big hit with the kids in lot 97 as well as the children.On the way back up 45 she was cruising along at 70 and somehow blew a hose that ran from the block to the air compressor. No biggie, pulled over and had some help picking up a hose, changed her out and back on the way we went. No problems the rest of the way home. I chalk it up as things to be expected with a 28 year old vehicle. Some pictars:
Beer Pong, radio, and proud owners:
time for a little relaxation:
90,000 Strong!
On to the field!
Damned hose:
All in all a great success, there will be a build up this offseason. It should include becoming maroon, kegs, fridge, canopy, and TV. maybe even a cook station and sink, I don't know yet.
