The ride up was quick, the ride home was killer. I think it was a little over 3 hours. Well worth the trip though. If the snow holds off, I think a couple of us might go to the Nicolet National this fall as well.

The drought had emptied the big puddles, but we still found some mud. Then he let me drive, it was all down hill from there. I had the itch. I left there knowing what my next vehicle would be. I also left there knowing I owe him a lot, especially for that dent from the log I kicked up. Oops.
Let me know if there are any dealerships I should avoid.
So far I've learned a few things here, see if the treadlightly discount is the best deal and stay away from the show and tell threads, they'll just suck my wallet dry.

Yes, as long as we are mentioning service and dealerships i have to get a vote in for UPTOWN in Slinger. They also gave my father a really good deal on a new Grand Cherokee, (he didnt take it but wished he did)..
Ewald and 5 Corners are also on top the list in S.E. WI.. For me a dealership that doesnt mind some mods is priceless (Uptown seems to actually care about thier customers)..
Good luck..

Look what I installed today! It took a little while to get everything to work right. It's pretty finicky about certain things, so it kept failing on installs and one time after installing my speedometer didnt work at all. But now that it's working Im liking it. Just have to figure everything out now
