Head West young man! The Rockies have been beautiful and the weather awesome. But the dust from the gravel roads and smoke from the forest fires has Stephanie's sinuses hurting. Utah bound! Packed up the truck and hoping after adding the air ride suspension and having the brakes worked on our little red F150 will be ready for the task finally. After the first mountain pass of two we check the brakes after going slow and carefully applying brakes as needed. Nope they were hot and smoking. Made it over the second pass and headed towards Monument Valley. The winds picked up and began tossing us around, again. Enough!!!! We both agree this is not worth dying over, the next town we're are going shopping for a bigger truck. At the Ford dealership we found a new 2019 F350 with most of the options that were on Stephanie's truck, except it wasn't RED. Red or not we bought the truck and what a world of difference it made in pulling the trailer. Okay, no matter what Ford or anyone else says a F150 should not pull a camper, yes it has the power to pull it but not the suspension or brakes to safely do so, so don't! In Monument Valley, looking to ride tomorrow.
