    We had talked about hitting The Gap offroad park in Auburn, but it was closed down.

    I'd be up for driving a bit south if there was enough interest with the Mobile guys.

    It would be nice to hit up a different park. The GAP would have been almost perfect for everyone. Isn't there a Boggs and boulders. That's the name of the park I think...

    Yeah, Boggs and Boulders would be a long haul for us, and I highly doubt any northern guys could make that trip. Would be better with more of a halfway point.


    Besides, I don't trust my old 95.5 with over 200k miles that much. :)

    Anything in birmingham is, in my opinion, halfway for both southern and northern alabama

    The Slab is almost the exact center if Alabama. In fact, the exact latitude longitude center of Alabama is about a mile from me, and it's a graveyard for anyone wondering.


    Birmingham is about 45 min closer to the north, than the south.

    You already asked me this, and I'm not sure. If I remember correctly, the fuse we pulled said 30 though.

    Opinions are like butt holes. Everyone has one and they usually stink.

    Yeah, I forgot I had asked. I've been looking at the research and according to most manufacturers, they say the 32 inch bar draws only 12 amps. That is why I was asking about yours. Do you remember what gauge wire you have running to it? I am looking at running 12 gauge for mine. I am going to ground it on the cab inside so I have only 1 long cable to worry about. If I ran power and ground to the under hood I would have to run 10 gauge, and I don't want to do that if I can help it.
