I think we're going to make the next meet in red deer or nordegg for the camping and quadding.

I noticed you don't have the max tow option on your trailer. I guess your trailer is under your trucks gvrw?

I wanted to get a trailer this year, I was going to go for a artic fox, but i'm opting for a different route.
Trailer weighs 4800lbs dry,515lbs hitch weight dry. So about 5600lbs with 640lbs hitch weight. With me and the Missus,tools etc truck weighs about 7100 lbs with the trailer hitched up.
We are close to the GVWR .

George's has awesome food, Tony Roma and Montana's are always solid hits. Eastside.Mario's is good Italian fare.

not sure if the olive garden has hit red deer yet, but it's great eats there.

personally man, I think if we took em to George's, it would be best.

i'm always a sucker for locale eateries. I mean, yea bp's etc I can get anywhere, but I've gotta go to red deer to enjoy George's pasta's n pizza's.

pretty sure we could reserve the "upper deck" in their pub side. even if we had half of it, it would accommodate 10+ if need be, and you'd be able to see a kitten or two too. plus, jen loves their scallops. she claims there the best she's had since she moved from nova scotia.

welcome to the game...

Georges is located at 67th and gaetz. its kind of a bad parking lot up front, but if you park in the rear there is plenty of room.

anyways, 67th n gaetz. if you're arriving into red deer via highway 11 from sylvan lake--- just stay on that road until you go through that intersection. as soon as you do, there's a left turning lane. take it and you should see a Tim hortons in front of your hood. George's is just around the bend and before the CIBC bank.

if you're on gaetz and heading towards blackfalds, its on your right. turn a 180onto the frontage road and you'll see it as described above.

btw, i recommend joining the Alberta f150's Facebook group page. if you do, and you post there... there's a few of us on there from the area that can help you with directions.
