I really want to go back to Bar Harbor. I did a quick stop on my way back from Nova Scotia when The Cat ferry was running back and forth to Yarmouth.Here are photos of Bar Harbor and Belfast Maine.View attachment 228279View attachment 228288View attachment 228286View attachment 228281View attachment 228287View attachment 228284View attachment 228285
Lot of surface to wash on that big girl too!Beautiful day yesterday to do a washing on the XL. Nice to break a sweat in November and burn off all the good pumpkin spice foods I have taste tested

You aren’t kidding! It involves a ladder and scrub brush to get the top, and drying up there is a challenge. I’m 6’2” on a good day and my wing span seems short. Years back in Ohio I had a 2002 Yukon XL and it was very difficult to find a car wash that would take such a long wheelbase. I think they are more common now, especially in Florida with all the pick up trucks.Lot of surface to wash on that big girl too!
We used to wash the company trucks once a month by hand. Boss would buy pizza and drinks and we would shut down at lunch and wash the trucks. We used to fight over who got the lesser of two evils. Either the 4dr long bed 350 with a topper, or the extended length service van. Neither was great!You aren’t kidding!

Man that was a good game! Should've been a bit more to our side, I think there were a couple bad calls in this one.Conducted payload testing in the Silverado this weekend. Rough guess, there's about 2800 lbs of Bills fans actually in the bed. As they say in the towing threads...I couldn't even tell they were back there!
