  2. That's funny. I was born in Jay and live 35 miles from there now. What kind of rally? Only kind of "pride rally" I can imagine taking place around here would be for Cherokee pride 🤷‍♂️
  3. Are you sure your Tahoe is rated to tow it? I would think so... I would think the 26' would be relatively light but I know some of the Tahoes are only rated in the 6000-6500 lb area but GCVWR is the important number. I'd also strongly consider having a brake controller installed if you don't already have one. Here's a boring video about tow ratings with a handy spreadsheet: https://www.keepyourdaydream.com/payload/. At 12:36 in that video he explains some of the consequences of being overweight. Here's a link to Chevrolet VIN decoder that will pull up your specific numbers https://chevroletforum.com/forum/vindecoder.php?vin Towing is not that hard, backing is a pain in the ass though til you get some practice. Our process is we pull up to our spot and wife gets out and calls me from her phone to my phone that's on bluetooth. She guides me in watching the back and passenger side which leaves me to watch the front of the truck and the driver's side. But here is where you need to have the conversation beforehand about patience and understanding because this is where you get into trouble. She'll tell you to go left and then after you figure out which way is left cause you're all fucking turned around you'll still accidentally turn the wheel the wrong way and then she gets pissed because you're an asshole that doesn't listen... There is a reason this exists. The first thing I learned about towing a travel trailer is don't ever pull into a place unless you are sure you can get out of it (some gas stations can be tricky). Setting up is no big deal, the only tricky part is getting it level. Just watch some youtube videos and you'll be set especially if you got a buddy that knows what he's doing, but even then the park hosts are usually pretty helpful if you need a hand.
  4. I wouldn't mind having wr250 for an rv bike... But I had a helluva time talking the wife into letting me get the Tiger. I'd have to trade it in and I'm not ready to do that yet.
  5. Here we are
  6. Are you suggesting that someone beating the shit out of their wife is not that bad? Or is it because it was just that one time? Or letting a player play that committed attempted murder, not a big deal either?
  7. One of those coaches on your list is 3-0 (midseason or whatever we are now) and has his team ranked sixth in total defense... Going back he's also 5-3 vs Patterson.... And he's 73-34 vs Patterson's record of 64-41 since they've been in the same conference. Not at all trying to say Gundy's all world or that he doesn't do some really dumb shit sometimes but I think some of you guys maybe giving Patterson too much credit because you just lost to him?
  8. Wonder if he said this to his receivers last night?

    OU at ISU

  10. If this is how you prepare for OU then you are fucked.
  11. I've seen people pulling their 21 foot bass boats behind fifth wheels here...
  12. We looked at toy haulers but wife could not find one with an interior she liked. At least one in budget.

  14. Maybe I'll put the Tiger on the front of the truck?
  15. I was thinking maybe a small trailer to pull behind the fifth wheel - but that I think would be a huge PITA anytime I needed to back up. I just got motorcycle early this year so I hadn't taken it on any trips yet but I was looking forward to in the future...
  16. That's kind of where we were too financially speaking. I just refinanced the mortgage and had paid off another loan so that freed up some monthly budget money and we figured our trade would just depreciate even more if we waited til next year. So when the dealer came down on their price to match the other guy we took it.
  17. Thanks! Our bumper pull was nice but this is another level. My goal is to be in this one for at least 8-10 years and then when it's just us and the youngest I'd like to start looking for a super C. Now I just need to figure out how to tie up my motorcycle to the back of it... It's got a hitch already but it's only rated for 300 lbs. and my bike weighs about 500. We're still planning a trip to Mt. Rushmore sometime and love to be able to take it too and hit some OHV/Jeep trails...
  18. Yeah the couch in the back flips out into a full size-ish bed. Then there's the bunk room in the middle with same couch in it. There's a loft above the bunk room that is about the size of a queen size bed. And up front is the main bedroom. We have three girls: 15, 11, and 4 . The oldest and youngest share the bunk room and middle one gets the loft.
  19. That makes me think of the old school waterbed/heater I had when I was a teenager.
  20. It came with a king bed but we traded it out with our queen mattress from the old trailer. Gave us a few extra sq ft of floor space in the bedroom. First trip is next weekend to Greenleaf State Park near Gore, OK.
