It was a long trip but finally made it and got settled in. The trip started off bad right from the start. A 100 miles into the trip my brothers truck broke a valve spring. A big thanks to Zac and Matt for coming to pick him up with a trailer. Being I had a everything in my enclosed trailer, I kept going after my brother was taken care of. My dad and another one of my brothers left TX then with a trailer to come pick up my brother and his truck up. After all that was taken car of the trip wasnt bad. I got 13mpg at 20,700lbs. I only had one blow out in LA and no other problems. My dad and brothers trip went without any problems. It was easier to tow his truck and fix it in TX vs fix it and then drive it 1200 miles and chance there being something else wrong.

Thanks again to everyone who helped load everything up and helped me and my brother out.
