Hi Dr,

O yea, I will be making the drive in my '02 Silverado
1500HD truck, which is a 3/4 ton pickup. May have
to take a second mortgage on the house to put gas
in her, but I do plan on making the 12-13 hour trip.;^) Got plenty of 
rope and several ratchet tie-downs, too. Looking forward to my first 
Cheesehead 'thon ;^)
