. What'da mean height would make ya crazy? Town is only 5,280 feet above sea level, in the 20 miles to work I'm sitting at 7700 feet, in 45 minute drive I can be sitting at 10,300 feet above sea level..... However, I come there, my truck would run fairly good, you come up here, yours would run like ?;"+.......... If it was a carbed vehicle anyway....... Its great up here where oxygen just isn't as easy to get as there | |
