    Yo, did they ever get the 1 open after the slide? I'd like to make the drive on my way to see my brother in Seattle. Was thinking about towing the trailer but it's appearing not to be a good idea....

    Yep, made sure and got 3.73 diffs on the Diesel Jeep. Keeps the engine right about 2,000 RPM at 65 MPH (not coincidentally peak torque).
