I'd be a little nervous but I think it'd do it. Hate to say it but my old Ford was more reliable lol

Yeah, I'd trust the blaze to make that trip. We've been through a lot together. But no way would I ever trust a ford.

I have taken mine on many 950 mile trips, but 1000 might be a bit too far.

Actually, lately I wouldn't, nothing but problems for past few months.

And I really was taking it 950 miles from Denver to just north of Minneapolis and back, did the trip atleast 15 times, and I had to work on it when I would get to MN and work on it again when I would get back to CO

How old are you?
Whatever...I will defend to the death* your right to express your ignorance. Makes it more fun when you come on here and complain about being stranded.

Answer .. yeah, once I replace the LIM gaskets. No they havent gone out... yet.

Actually it's pretty freakin' SAD this thread exists.


* Actually.. that's just a figure of speech. I'd be sad for you.
