To be honest, back at Dave's waiting out the storm.
Forced me to cancel New Jersey this weekend, and just hoping it doesn't do anything bad enough that it doesn't work to head there next weekend.

Re: Yet another trip

Just posting this so people don't get mad I'm not responding to text/call. My phone keypad appears to be nonfunctional after loading up the 92 ebony in the rain last night. I'm looking into options of either an ebay phone and getting it activated or else a cheapy prepaid. One time where having UScellular for cell carrier kinda bites me. There are stores in Hagerstown, MD on my way south from PA but will be out a phone til Sunday if that is what I choose.

Re: Yet another trip

Tow dolly behind a Dodge Caravan if I'm on the right page, like this:



Except replace the Ford with a Dodge, and the Matrix with an SVX. It works fine with AWD as long as you disconnect the driveshaft from the rear diff and tie it to the exhaust or something.

Re: Yet another trip

Yep, works out extremely well. I'll try to get some pics up in a little while of the setup as well as of the current of the new acquisitions.
Just becomes a bit tricky since my phone is out of commission but I think I have a cable to link up my camera to my laptop.

Of course my dolly doesn't have alloy wheels or those handy tool racks, but it works well.

BTW Chris, what day were you heading to Dave's? There's a chance we may even get to meet as I think you had mentioned being there the 10th?

Re: Yet another trip

Update, phone started working again, however I am putting it in a bag of rice overnight so that it can fully dry out.

Also, got the stitches taken out today and I am back at Dave's after spending the extended weekend at Eric's in New Jersey.
Will be starting my journey southward on Sunday morning.

Re: Yet another trip



Good to see you again Eric and Tim. Wish I couldn't stick around any longer Tim.

Nassir, I'll try to give you as much update as possible. More than likely I'll be in the area a few days but I'll try to update you on my whereabouts.
