Check out our new truck pic, eh! This is our Yukon truck and JoJo likes to keep a clean windshield. It is a 2007 Volvo VN 660, moose bumper, moose lights with a Cummins ISX 450 HP engine and an Eaton 10 speed automated transmission. It has a nice, comfy, smooth and quiet ride. It has a great compression brake too, the Cummins Intebrake, that holds the whole truck back on serious downgrades without using the air brakes. We were stuck in Whitehorse for almost a week with a faulty sensor on the tailshaft of the transmission. It did get replaced and we were on our merry way. Our friends, Darby and Leigh, the other Yukon team, have an identical truck that had the same, identical sensor failure a week after ours!

We also posted a really great video featuring JoJo flirting with "her boys", the Norquist Bison Herd! These are truly magnificent animals, who show no fear and will waltz across the highway right in front of you. They really "own" the highway. Check it out.


Gots to get on the way. We are resolving a few work issues with info to follow.
