The Hoe earned her keep this weekend...
The Tahoe, not the GF
I’m one of those guys who has modded his truck so far that I am scared to drive it too far from home because I never know what’s going to explode or leak next. Well this weekend I had no choice. I had to pick up my GTO in FL. I live in OK. The Tahoe was still on Fort Walton Beach FL parked directly behind the GTO.
I drove the GF’s 4Runner from OK to FL. Spent 2 days getting the GTO ready for its next round of mods (I'm an addict, what can I say) Fire up the Hoe that has been sitting untouched for 2 months (with a flat tire no less LOL) Air up tire and head to U-Haul for a car trailer. Hook up, load GTO and drive that fat thirsty bitch towing 6,000 lbs all the way to Shreveport, LA, spend the night then on to Longview TX where I Drop the GTO/Trailer at East Texas Muscle Cars. Then drive the Hoe another 6 hours back to OK. She did this with not so much as a hiccup. I did get a little nervous while towing, cruise on, going up a grade and the boost climbed to 9psi…yikes.
There’s no point to this post other than to say I'm pretty impressed that it made it with no issues at all. I don’t even want to know what I weighed in at with a 2,000lb trailer, 4,000lb car, me + 3 kids and luggage, jack stands, tool box, hydraulic jack, etc, etc…she was packed down! I’m so proud of her...
