    true, but always worth a try. I have family in helena, but none of them are very big car nuts so they wont know what they are looking for as much.

    We did a little conservation project in the Tizer Basin on Saturday. The forest service, Boy Scout Troop 207 and the Frontier 4x4 Club built some fences around some meadows to protect them.

    Sorry I had not dropped by sooner. There are a few more differences. the lockers as you already know, the E-disco (push button sway bar disconnect. Also, the rock rails (sometimes called RubiRails). There is a little more shielding underneath. Last I knew the Rubicon was the only model which had 4:10 gears. I think that covers it.

    Oh, I think only the Rubicon has the 4:1 transfer case. The Rubi is also the only one which gets the BFG tires.

    Hit Hell Roaring, Fantan Lake, and Sawtooth Lake this weekend. Awesome trip! Anyone here ever gone to Sawtooth? It is quite the trail to get there, a blast though!

    Here is a picture of Sawtooth and I'm gonna be that guy and post a picture of my Nissan on here!

    Hey guys, a good friend of mine is missing. He was last seen on I-90 hitch hiking from the Gorge from a concert this weekend. If any of you guys are driving that area and have seen or heard anything can you please call 406-498-0959, 406-498-3764, or 911. And feel free to share this on any local pages on FB or forums in your areas between Montana and Washington. Thanks guys.
