RE: Thoughts on my set-up

[Rich Kinsley <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>]

I had to put my hood back on tonight as I'm afraid it may rain tomorrow. 
This way I will go anyway and come home only if necessary. I'd be a bit 
hesitant with out the hood. An empty trunk does help anyway. I suppose I 
may be at least 100lbs lighter w/o the extra gas and junk in the trunk. 
So I'm down to 3900 or hopefully 3800lbs.
