I saw a yellow GMC pulling a blue/grey Samurai heading towards Payson, AZ this morning. Anyone here?

Good Job Jim! It must have come a long way since I saw it in Feb. It was still on jacks and looking kind of rough at that time! That you had an uneventful trip is a testimony to your mechanical skills.

Gene;
Thanks for the compliment on the 23'.
Hope to have the 26' just as good looking.

Carl;
I worked on it pretty steady until about a week ago when I finished the ride
height & 6 wheel alignment.
I don't know if it is the longer wheel base or the Quadra Bag system, but
was impressed the way it handled
compared to the 23' & the 23' handles really good to.
Things are looking up.
