Hey, DML!
  Who needs those extra 2 cylinders??!?!??!
The DAKSY with Susan & I & a "toy" trailer, just got back from North Adams,
Ma. We hauled home 17 square of Owens Corning 40-Year Architectural Shingles
over the mountains on Rt 43, 'bout a 35 mile trip. I figger (@ 240 lbs per
sq) we hauled
a little over 2 TONS (4080#)! Hadda climb some really steep grades & hadda
go to 2nd gear once - to hold 30 MPH @ 3500 RPM, but other than that 3rd &
4th all the way. Had about 1/3 of the load in the DAK...She didn't even
sway..THANK YOU Roadmaster!
"Course she didn't really wanna stop too quickly at the 8-sided red signs,
but I snuck up on em to avoid potential problems...
Ennyhoo..."I LOVE MY DAK!"
