Drunkcanuks build...... finally!!!

Oh....while we were out, I drove a few minutes out of town and weighed my truck.

Translates to 4166 lbs, with a 1/2 tank of gas and my daughter and I in it.
Thought it would be closer to 5000 lbs.

No real point to this, other my own curiosity. Lol

That’s cool my 2012 is 8000 pounds! The L-96 and 6 speed pushes it around getting 16 mpg so I imagine 4100 pounds would be fun!

Damn, I went over the scales as I left the refuse station last weekend and it read 2550 with a tank of gas and me. I had better start cutting back on the snacks

That's kinda my thought as well...my 6000lb Ram with 395hp gets up and goes pretty dang good.
Sticking 350-400hp in this little fella should definitely make for a spirited ride, but not full "R" word! Lol
On the HP note.... discovered the new Toyo tires are safe from the wear and tear of burnouts today! Lol
Definitely need to do something about that!!!

If ya do a 5.3 swap your tires will stay safe from burnouts as well lol. 6.0 vote x100!

But to be fair....you have a lot of cool stuff on your rig that adds up.

You know that's the plan!

Oh....and I tried to resurrect Lil'red today, but the new bottle jack is smaller and didn't have any mounting holes in it.
Going to have to tear the old jack out, see where it's leaking and dissect it to find out what size O-ring I need to try and find.
Luckily there are a bunch of farm dealerships and parts stores in town, shouldn't be to hard to find.
Once he is alive again, I can stop making excuses for not doing my door pins.

If needed you can borrow my little red as well.

I do appreciate that Sean, but if I did that mine would never get fixed! Lol
