Love the UP. Can't wait to go back in September.

What happened to the truck?

I had develop some kind noise just before crossing UP it feels like discharge valve wasn't working properly the boost would go up 30 psi but really slow acceleration until second turbo is kicked on. Next we went local shop in Pickford they said its turbo but they can take us about week plus from that time. So on way to camp site where we left all our gear truck made metal sound and just dies right on rt 129, so some very nice people helped us with caling a tow truck ans loan a car while we were looking for the transportation back home. Truck is still in UP at shop only next week they will take look. We are home as we bought old truck for 2 k . That is story . I'm 850 miles away from the our truck. In picture below is our hero as drive 850 miles home in one day !

I miss Michigan so much....Florida is COMPLETELY different. Brother still lives up there so I visit at least once/twice a year. The UP was always a nice area and full of so many getaway spots.

Yikes! Glad you made it home safely though. Will the 2k pickup be earning a place of honor at your place or is the plan to drive it back up and sell it when the Titan is ready?

I am sometimes amazed by how nice people can be.

My wife got attached with truck ans don't want to sell it. So I think we will fix exhaust, get seats covers fix emergency brake ans keep it as home depot/ Costco truck.
