Default Time for a vacation = 1500 miles!

Im about to put 1500 miles on the blazer for a trip to texas.

Time for 115 degree heat!

I haven't had any problems with the blazer yet but iv been getting little
paranoid lately because of how little trouble it has given me.

I feel like my time is coming lol.

I wonder what will go first.

Wish me luck!

yea...115 sucks. I work at a place that has huge ovens that get up to 120. Brutal.


If anything goes,it will be a nail in the tire...Mine has been giving me no issues...For some reason my water pump has been on my mind for no reason. Maybe its a warning.

115 degrees of dry heat = 90 degrees of humid heat. Florida sucks.

Don't worry, Brian, it'll only be ~105 while you're there.

Try the panhandle or any of west Texas. I'll take 120 degrees out there over 90 degrees in the south east ANY day.
