well, we left Anchorage friday night at 10PM. Me made it here Orange, Texas at 8 this morning. Took about 76 hours to make the trip i beleive. We saw at least 20+ buffalo, 20+ moose, a few caribu, some foxs, a wolf, mountian lion. wild horses, a few porcupine. We ranged from 34MPG to 26MPG. When we hit Kansas, the wind was teribble!!! made for bad MPG. I took just a few pics along the way, not much time to stop and take pics, but ill have more on the return trip, well stop alot to take pics.

oh yes, as far as the box took the trip. It did well. Other than the 1/2 of the rear bumper falling off , did quite well. My fog ligths wouldnt work for some reason, but hey. thats how it goes!!

it was somthin from hurricane Rita. I had to drive through a ditch to get to a buddys house to check on it. The bumper got ripped off, never fixed, But the new bumpers, grill, lips and hood is sitting at the paint shop and are ready for mounting on tuesday.
nothin for ya to worry about.
