The Canyonero has been brought back to stock height, which means it’s now completely restored, and eligible to tow a sports car across the country, with all my stuff in the back! In the middle of March, Cletus is coming into town to help me move to Toronto. Yes that’s right, I’m moving to the big city! I’m so excited to be following some dreams, including trying my best to make R+C my full time job. See you there!

You’d get better fuel economy riding a skateboard while pouring gas out of a can.

Yup. But there really isn’t another vehicle that can hold all of my stuff and tow a car, so I’ll have to endure!

“Restored”

Cletus should bring the Vette and you can make an episode out of making some bodge to use it as a moving vehicle.

The 454 is a hungry, hungry beast.

Should be a pretty straightforward move. Try to hypermile it!

Funny, I’m trying to go in the opposite direction of you. Here’s hoping I make it out to the prairies!

That reminds me, there’s a fantastic red square-body Suburban on campus that parks next to me sometimes with the most 80's graphics package I’ve ever seen. I need to snag a pic eventually. Those things are neat as hell.

As a guy who’s planning to move across the country within a couple months in an 87 Suburban, I love this. I’m not looking forward to towing gas mileage. Really wish I had an overdrive.

Yeah the towing mileage is going to be STARK. But whatever, still cheaper than a moving truck or shipping everything. Where are you moving to/from?

Yeah I’m gonna be headed to auto value to get some glasspacks before we set off.

Why are you coming my way? Everybody is broke here.

The Suburban is essentially a bodged Cletus-Vette already, 350, 4 speed, no exhaust, Chevy, 8MPG, it’s got it all!

Moving from Seattle to Detroit, so almost the exact same trip as you! lol

Wow! Haha, I like Seattle a lot, cool city for sure. We’ll have to drop down to Detroit sometime.

Sounds like a great trip. Good luck making R&C your full time gig! You know I love the show :)

Well, aiming for Saskatoon. Cheaper living if I can get a similar or better wage (which I can), plus my girlfriend. And I’m tired of Toronto.

Thank you as always for your support! Now I can come down to have hot dogs with you any time I want!

That is perfect. I might have to find a reproduction set of those decals

Definitely! If I can get a ride in one of the soon to be infamous R&C vehicles, I’ll buy the dogs.
