Kkkkaaaannnssssaaasss Ciiitttyyy! We have bee here a night already hanging out with some friends. They have been very hospitable. I got to drive the camper for the first time longer than down the road and its a little slow, but we are in no hurry. Not sure where we are headed after this. I think in a northerly direction would be good.
I like the truck. Looks awesome.
Good luck and more pics!

The last time I checked in we were in Kansas City. We have made a little ground since then. We are currently in Bozeman, MT. We have taken 90W most of the way. Zig zaging in and out of the scenic highways and National parks. We have meet a lot of interesting and helpful people along the way. The truck is doing well, but I think some sort of suspension help in the rear will be necessary. We are going to schedule some sort of appointment farther North on 90 to get bags or helper springs. Hope you guys have a good Labor Day weekend. Let me know if there is anyone up in these here parts.
Glad you're underway, have a great trip!! :smiley_drive:
John Bozeman's Bistro downtown has good yuppie food. Alternately, out in Manhattan and Logan are the "Land of Magic" and "Sir Scott's Oasis," which are both beef enterprises that you will not soon forget.

Congrats on finally getting on the road!
I am a bit south of you in Jackson, Wyoming. Look me up if you come this way. Free camping in my front yard!
The Taco looks heavy! I have some used Airlift air bags you can have, for free. They have tire plugs in them though and do leak a little bit of air each day. No mounting hardware, only the actual bags. I would suggest getting some Firestone air bags though, the Airlifts gave me a lot of problems. I do have a mig welder though and a steel shop is just down the street from me. So it wouldn't be hard to get some steel and fab up some brackets and install the Airlift bags I have. Like I say, show up and the used air bags are yours!
I will be watching your trip reports!

Hey thanks man, but we are in Calgary now. I think we are going to try and find a shop or something here for it. We might have to pay a little extra, but we are here and it would be convenient. Unless there is someone farther North.
