Russell,
Thanks for your endorsement of the 184. Due to my 6'2" height and concern of space in the 154, I'm leaning that way, too. I see you are in Wisconsin. I am in Chicago-land and can't wait...

Yes. I should get to a scale. On paper I am okay with weights if we choose the 154. The 184 brings me closer to the max, but offers a 3,500lb axle vs. 3,200lb on the 154.

Thanks...
