    Boy I like the look of that lineup...haven't had much of the Rocky Patel but the rest all sound great to me...I like those Cu-avano Intenso....they last a long time and have a nice peppery strong flavor..thought it would work on the golf course but it is too good for that....best sitting by the campfire..I love Pepin and Fernandez smokes so the others are right up my alley

    You have good tastes my friend, Intenso and MOW lines fit well in my hand especially around the campfire. BTW, Rocky makes some tasty sticks too, give some a try.

    Excellent line-up for a camping trip. DPG and AJ go together like chocolate and marshamallows. Ummm...

    Six nights means 7 days and that is less than 3 sticks a day. You smoke 4-5 during a work day? I though you'd go through at least that on vacation. Sounds like you have full days planned. Stay safe my friend.

    A very astute observation but really a simple explanation. I will not be starting at 5:30 am so I only need 3 a day. I do have 20 sticks in the travel humi and plan to stick two in my shirt pocket for good measure. LOL

    I would need more LHCOF's. I really dig those. Enjoy your camping trip! are you using your new V10 to tow a trailer or are you a tent guy

    I love the quiet groan of the V-10 when under load pulling 32' of RV and what fun it is to drive.

    the v10 you have is the best one, the 3 valve head is great. i had an 08 Expedition with the 5.4 3v and loved it.

    Sadly this is the last of the V-10 engines as Ford is phasing it out. I am glad I got it when I did as it is a great motor and proven architecture for longevity. The new generation 6.2L V-8 will be the only gas motor available for the SuperDuty line moving forward but has great potential to surpass the V-10 in power output in the long run. The first year numbers are decent but Ford always takes their motors and continues to improve the numbers over the life of the engine. I have also had a 3v 5.4L and it was an excellent small block engine. All of the modular Ford engines were bulletproof in design and hopefully they have done their homework with the new line as well.

    now if they could just get the diesel stuff back in check where it should be. the 7.3 was great, the 6.0 could be good if you remove all the failure prone emissions junk, and the 6.4 only lasted a couple years which should say something

    Just got back from a good week of camping and cigar ignition. Came back empty handed traded a couple of sticks with a BOTL and was gifted a Camacho 1962 Pre-Embargo by another BOTL which I promptly smoked. Excellent stick.
