Full truck and trailer, to Austin yesterday in Rawhide. He hauled it quite well, just thirsty (almost 3/4 tank of gas, but we did drive some between fill up and leaving on the trip. We were probably hauling close to rated weight, but we could run pretty consistently 55-60 even in the hills(nothing really high) while the engine was turning 1900-2000 RPM.
Eventually I'll put a shell on it, so I don't have that air resistance as it comes over the cab and catches the trailer. Then I'll be able to put a load back there and not worry about rain....
Had a little rain on the way up, but we got in the venue and unloaded and got back to the motel before the storms started. It rained really hard for 2 or 3 hours here last night; Houston got that this morning.
