      Definitely not breaking any records power wise, but trucks then were geared really low to make up for lower engine power. It's why Orwell is pretty much geared out around 70

East branch of the Potomac river runs alongside the property. Probably 8-10 feet wide and couple feet deep. Few would think of mountains and countryside like that when you mention MD.

    If not all you are doing is spinning your wheels.
