Driving to Lake of The Ozarks

Posted by GITiger66 on 6/5/24 at 12:22 pm
Driving from Baton Rouge area to Lake of The Ozarks in a couple of weeks and trying to decide which route is better.

We spent a day in Jasper National Park going to Maligne Canyon and Maligne Lake and it was much less crowded and just...

re: Educate me on RAM trucks

Posted by GITiger66 on 2/23/24 at 12:50 pm
I had three F-150s in a row (Crew Cab, 4x4) and was going to buy a 4th in 2020. After I test drove the RAM it was not even close. Now at 80,000 miles with the RAM and really happy with it. The 2020+ Rams are very different from the previous version. Drive them all and see what makes you happy. ...

I personally like the older building for the ambiance, but haven't been in couple of years. The last couple of times we looked at going the rate was outrageous ($500/nt) so we ended up going somewhere else. But it is a cool spot....
