SouthEast Region Offroading URE meet in Oct!!!!!

yeah, i slept in my truck the first meet. i wish i could do it again but my gf is coming and doesn't wanna sleep in a cab that smells like my sour unwashed nutsack. bitches.... am i right?

 

Sorry fellas but I'm NOT going to be able to make it. Its an 11 hour drive and I will spend about $180 just in gas money+the hotel (campsite,etc.)

 

if it gets cold i might head to the cab. idk i'll be inside two sleeping bags plus will have a blanket just incase. both of them are rated to like 15 i think, so i should be fine. i've slept in the bed of my truck a couple of times and had no problems...but this is when it was like 65 at night..



the girl i was expecting to bring along is like a 99.9% no go.

im kinda glad though because, for some reason, i dont see her enjoying spending 3 nights in the bed of a pickup with no electricity, running water....basically nothing at all except for a fire and a hole in the ground to shit in.


and mass amounts of alcohol.

 

what hotel?

 

Campsite,Truck, etc. Somewhere to sleep


and food

 

heres the food i plan on bringing.

breakfast: big box of poptarts from costco (3 mornings)

lunch: loaf of bread, squeeze pb & j (3 or 4 afternoons)

dinner: canned food (chili, spaghettios, etc.) (3 nights)

going to cost like max of $40 for 12 meals. not bad imo.

the whole 5 tanks of gas total is going to suck though. stupid 1000+ mile round trip!

 

Thats what Im not looking forward to

 

i might be headed to raleigh on the monday after the trip, so add another tank of gas.

16mpg kinda sucks for long road trips lol. i go 250 miles before i gas up :/

probably going to be a solid 70 or so gallons of gas used during the weekend. it'll be worth it though, thats for damn sure!

 

Yeah man I agree. But I would have to leave after school. 3:10 and 11 hours on top of that... Man I would be OUT cold

 

oh, ya im skipping thrusdays classes. leaving around 8am thursday morning so i can get down there in the daylight.

 

see I cant do that. My dad wont let me.

 

yeah, i got a couple 0 degree bags so me and my lady should be ok. she's cool and doesn't mind roughing it and doesn't complain but it would be kinda nice to be alone so i didnt have to set up a tent. if she weren't there i'd be a little more bare bones and i'd sleep in the bed or the cab. oh well

 

haha here's the conversation i had with my mom when i told her about the trip

Mom: When are you going down to visit that girl in NC?
Me: Thrus Oct 22 til possibly monday the 26th. I'm also going to go to a truck meet in the woods.
Mom: Whaa?
Me: Yup.
Mom: You're skipping two days of class then?
Me: Yup.
Mom: Alright just make sure that you dont have anything due in your classes.

 

ya the only tent that I know of at my house is one of them 4 room sleeps 20 people or some shit tent. Damn thing weighs a solid 50 lbs by itself. Definately not bringing that if its just going to be me.

 

wait a minute, has it always been the weekend of the 23rd? i could have sworn it was next wknd! i got this up coming friday off! i swear it was the wknd of the 16th!

 

you fail.

 

are you fucking kidding me? this might actually be a problem. how the fuck did i get the wrong date?

 

well as of oct 11 09 i am not going to disgrace my presence at the oct meet due to an issue that surfaced with the ass end of my god dam mutha effin truck . the issue was a small leak coming from the brake drums well i pulled the tires and beat the dam drums off to find out the dam wheel cylinders were bout to sh*t fluid. well i went got all the stuff to fix my prob and the new brake shoes are the wrong type and spent 4 hours aguing with auto zone advance and napa to find the right ones to no avail . bumpkis . sorry bout the rant. i was lookin foward to meetin yall and having a nice weekend doin some wheelin . oh well sh*t happens. have fun fellas maybe some time in the future
