Wish we could make it. We're 3 hours away, but with our critters, it might as well be 300. Mr. Beefy should be ready to roll for 2021, though! Have fun

Bout to do my oil and filter in preparation for our skoolie swarm here in FL. I won't ask about your brand of preference! 
Hope you, Spooky, and Mary have a great time out there!

I keep gallon and 2.5 gallon jugs around. So when its oil change time I just go get a 5 gallon bucket and a filter and use the smaller jugs I've got to make up the difference.
Haven't done a 3126 oil change before- but I'd figure on it being 6 or 7 gallons?

No FL this year, at this time we're kinda tied to Dr. visits, maybe someday.
Unofficial bus count is 225 plus. Lots of folks still there when we left.
Going to edit my pics and will post asap.
