Had to mention here in Idaho we are going to be in the low 30's tomorrow
morning. We were 39 this morning and got to 53 today.

Don't forget chains and skyhook if you're planning to stay in Gary's
driveway :-) Superb view and super folks though [g].

When we arrive home in the GMC we put on a well rehearsed performance. At the
foot of the hill that leads to our house there is a convenient scenic turnout
off Hwy 101. We stop there and my wife takes the Geo Tracker Toad on up the
hill to the foot of our steep driveway. She waits there for me with the nylon
tow strap already hooked up to the Tracker. I arrive in the GMC, she snaps the
strap on the hook I have installed under the GMC front bumper, and then she hops
in the Tracker. It's a pretty impressive sight to see the Tracker pulling the
GMC up the grade!!! Actually just a little help from the Tracker is all the GMC
needs to overcome front wheel spin-out. Anyway, it works.

I have wondered about doing this but have always been a little concerned about
over stressing the tow bar. So you actually know of this being done
successfully??? If so I'll give it a try tomorrow when I pick up my coach with
new 6-wheel discs + sensitized booster from Harrison. Thanks
