Nice pictures of your miniture schnauzer, we have 8 of them. They are excellant very personable dogs. Woouldn’t get rid of none of them. I work at the Cleveland plant where you picked up your truck. Glad to hear it works for you. Can you comment on how your Cascadia performs with and without a load, as far as fuel consumption?
