yeah the 4 times I've been through NO I've taken the bypass, was down there for the katrina aftermath because of my job. You know up until a year or so ago they still found bodies.
Anyways all the times I've driven through was at night (2am ish) so didnt see any places to eat. Now mortons, are you talking bout the place I take the ol lady and walk out bout 200 bucks less or is this a diff mortons? I just want some good spicy red beans and rice. Also can't spend too much time as my two dogs will be with me.
As for the towing I found a moving co that'll put it up on their auto transports for 500 bucks. Can't go wrong with that, the trailing kit at cheapest would be around 200 and that's if I don't need any special brackets. So that and lower mpg that I'd get for trailering it I decided to go with the transport service. The bad thing is they take up to 7 days, but my buddys dad will let me borrow one of his powerstrokes from his company. Hope he let's me borrow his (he bought a second vette so he's been driving that), has a tuner in it so it'll cook all 4 37" tires. Hell he has a nos kit on his vette.
As for the tires 600 more for 7 tires ain't bad.

gtxpooch........No, I shouldn't have to lift at all. Because I already have a 4x4, I can use the 265's, otherwise I'd have to stay with the 245's. Here's a link to Rickson's site that has pic's of costumer's trucks after the conversion. Some have been lifted for effect, and will imply in the description. Worth looking at ........ http://www.ricksontruck.com/customers_dodge_drw.html
RamItOne........ The Mortons I'm talking about is in Madisonville, on the Tchefuncta River. It's very reasonable with good food and service. Here's a link to mapqest of the area. The red star is praticlly on the resteraunt. http://www.mapquest.com/mq/4-C9ogwozaE6YVd83ALvq9
Sounds like a decent price to have your truck hauled over to FL. Certainly they're insured and it's one less thing that you have to deal with.
$600.00 more for the Goodyears, ain't to bad, but thats in addition to the $2500.00 for the Toyo's. Total of $3125.00 for the Goodyears. Ouch.......I hate to hit the final total button when considering the rims also! [:@]

I've decided for the most part to go with the Goodyears. They seem to have a better reputation than the Toyo's. Got to support Americans nowadays.
Oh, BTW..........What do you do with 365 used condoms?
Put em together, make a tire and call it a Goodyear!
