Update for "Waylon"

Waylon is coming in up on 40000 miles. My not so trusty steed hasn't let me down, just likes to complain. We took the wagon (camp trailer) on the trail across the state. Had to get the whip out on I-70. Waylon has the ability to pull, just got to rev him out to get over the San Rafael Swell.

When we got home the transmission was acting up. I unplugged the battery for a few minutes and now things are right again.

At 30k miles I re-shoe'd him. The BF Goodrich KM2's did very well. Road manners were decent, tires were quiet and off road was impressive. KM2's weren't available so the new Shoes are Nitto mud tires. They are a 10 ply tire which means higher load rating and ability to run over 70 psi. Waylon's pressure light had been stuck in the on position because the tires weren't rated at a high enough pressure, problem solved with the right tire. Road manners are a little worse than the KM2s (noise and vibration), but they are impressive off road. With 10k miles I haven't noticed any irregular wear. We will see if they make it to 30k. Overall Waylon serves the purpose, just wish there was more room, no speed limiter, and that I could drive with the lights out...
