    Lot you gewbers know. Stopped in to see my transmission guy this AM, who just happens to have the same truck as me. I was gonna ask him about whether I needed to put a transmission cooler on it.

    Said, well, I could, but what do you want me to do with the one that's already on it. He explained it's got a transmission and oil cooler, has the same transmission and rear end as the Tundra and has an drive shaft in it bigger than a F250. Said he's not had a lick of trouble out of his pulling a 24' Pontoon nor a 30' Camper. But did clue me in to manual shift it especially when pulling out at the ramp. Said a manual shift engages additional clutches that would protect the tranmission.

    Now, as long as my gas peddle doesn't get stuck, I'm good to go. Now stopping the dern thing......well, gonna tighten the surge brakes on the trailer to help out some.

    A lot like the old Wannabe... except with fewer bad words. And Karate chop action. But, yes, still purtier than you.

    I thought your truck had those cutouts like Fred Flintstone's ride?

    Next thing you know you will be running all over the lake,stopping to fish about 10 minutes in one place,and then blasting off to somewhere else just like the bass boys.Just remember just cause your truck has a drive shaft bigger than an F-250 doesn't make it an F-250.

    I would seriously consider adding a front hitch if you're gonna be on steep ramps. Nothing like having that weight on a set of drive wheels and all pushing in the proper direction.

    Naw.... NVM... now that I've thought about it a bit more, it might be more fun to have someone post a picture of that Tundra taking a dip.
    Quit complaining about the color, just pull up your skirt and fish! -- snagged

    Even his truck is a Wannabe. Don't think it's a Tundra.

    Magnetic propulsion. That's all I'm allowed to say at the moment.
