Oklahoma is a beautiful state with more sunny days than Florida. It has small mountains, many very large lakes and rivers, and is navigable with large barges, trawlers, etc, from Tulsa to New Orleans. Lake Texoma is so heavily stocked with stripers that I have never fished there without making the limit of 9 keeper stripers per day. Route 66 has been restored in that area and Arkansas's crystal clear lakes abut the Eastern border.
Concentrations of Indian sites, etc, are everywhere and the population is in a nice balance between laid back and party hardy.... so a very fun place to boat and visit... John

We loved our CD22, we love our CD25 better, Thoreau notwithstanding! Towing the CD25 is NOT a problem, D~J is right...now, the C-Ranger 25, that MIGHT be a hearse of a different color...

Now towing my CD-25 is nearly effortless, no problems, just got to THINK when making sharp turns or BEFORE you enter that small mall parking lot...(don't ask how I learned that one..  )

Come on now Pat, don't you wish you could have that 25' C-Ranger hooked up to your rig? Be honest now!!
Having pulled a 38' wide load goose neck trailer with my six speed manual dually, I can surely say that one must obtain several extra levels of enlightenment in order to navigate through strange roads during bad weather and rush hour traffic. You learn to DRIVE. |

This has to be a typo. I am sure you meant 38' long, didn't you?

| Actually I forgot the comma. It should have been written "38', wide load". I know a guy in Baton Rouge who drives a Tug pushing 106 ' (feet) wide barge strings. They are 800' or 900' long. He has some incredible boat driving stories to tell. |

| I should have realized that. My mind just put the comma in the wrong place. |
