hopefully it will be at least another ten years before i am reminded that White Castle sucks lol. that burger is like one notch above am/pm burger. the chicken slider was better than the burger lol.

had a great time with everyone. even the bronco.... in fact i was discussing the bronco with my wife the next day. for her next vehicle. she really likes them.

yesterday i got up early to hit the Pomona swap meet with my buddy who was in town.
i was still so tired last night i passed out really early last night. like 9pm lol.

Yeah, when someone said "White Castle" I slinked away. Wife and I were in Indianapolis about 20 years ago and drove through one. We ended up tossing it all out and hitting a bbq joint.

Good to see you again Steve. Great bunch to wheel with. Always fun.

On my list of trail rides is Mojave Trail and it's odd sights. It's just a dirt/sand road, but has some interesting stuff and there's a big sand bowl near a friend's old cabin, some lava caves, petroglyphs, the Mojave megaphone, Afton Canyon, a spring that the Calvary built an outpost at, the old Kelso train depot. Between now and the spring is the time for this trail.

I’ve been looking at the Mojave trail. I have friends in Bullhead city and the start is right across the River from there. That’s about a 3 day isn’t it?

You can drive it in one day. But if you want to see all the POIs it can take 2-3 days.

Gesh, it sucks you did get to make it but I am glad it happened are you place instead of the middle of the trail or in the middle of the highway -_-. I would be curious if the turbo just below is the cause of the failure of the coolant reservoir. looks like they do have a heat shield but is it actually enough :movember:

Looks like a substandard seam bond. Second or third one I've heard of recently. When you get a new Mopar part, keep the reciept. Their parts are warrantied for some period of time that I can't remember.

I can’t remember if the newer tank is the see-through one or the black one like the photo. But if given a choice, I’d go clear—I have the black plastic (MY2020) and hate not being able to check the level without opening it.

I took it for a spin to the supermarket the night before.
Energetic off the line with a nice throaty sound from the 2.7L. The 10-speed AT was super smooth.
About all I’m willing to admit. :bandit:
