That is going to be his name and you can call me Ahab(sp). I left on the trip to pick him up. I had to use my sister pick-up the canyon can not handle the load. She had it at the dealer to make sure all was good to go for the trip 1900.00 later I pick up it up. Take it home get all my stuff load for the trip. Wake up go to work spend the morning on the phone and then call it a day. I head to pick up the trailer at her house. Go to make the last turn to her house and the brake petal goes soft and the anti lock break light comes on #$%^!!!! I am able to make it to her house and back up to the trailer and see a line in the snow, brake fluid. S#$%!!! my sister live in BF 30min from any Auto part store and there in not a 2nd car. I get to sit around unit 5 that is the 1st time any one can come and get me.

I look over the breaks and it is the main line from front to back. not something I wanted to mess with. I did not have any of my tools take care of it in time to meet up with my brother. So I call him and cancel the trip.

Trip #2 cancel that name is real starting to stick.

thanks for putting up with my rant
