So what is the weather like?
Here
Sorry to hear john. It's actually pretty decent here now. Hit and miss sun, not raining, and right at 80*
How bad are the trails? If its not bad there I have time to make it before dark if I leave by 4pm
Didn't make it. We got to Abington VA and I lost trailer brakes(suddenly) on a downhill stoplight and got pushed through it. The ABS on the Commander stopped me eventually but there was no way I was going to tackle those mountains with 6500# pushing me around.
Shane stopped with me and we worked on them for an hour with no luck. My Prodigy controller was saying "Short Circuit" and "Over Load" when the brakes were applied.
I sent Shane on and I worked on them until 10pm and got the front axle working by cutting the rear axle out and capping the positive wire.
This trip has been doomed from the start for me. I like to drive my rig and the tranny issues kept me from that, then the rain now the trailer.
I'm home
That is very unfortunate with the trailer. I wish you could have made it, 2013 was a fun crawl. Weather was surprisingly nice until the sky opened up on us today. I think you would have enjoyed the intermediate ride, Shane and Jason stepped up and had seats for me. Maybe we will hit Crozet this fall?
Get up with me this week so we can work out whether you want a refund or me to ship the stuff you ordered to you .
