    Installed the LEDs that are shown below in the "products discussed in this thread" section yesterday. Happened to be missing a connector so didn't get both wired up. Will complete tonight.

    I will say this, $500/month for a 1 bedroom apartment that's halfway decent exactly 1 mile from campus is not bad. I can pretty easily find a 2-3 bedroom close to campus for about $300/person too.

    Pueblo does have some advantages.

    It wasn't that fancy lol. Paper thin walls, very dated lol. I just couldn't stand living in an apartment anymore. And I still had crap neighbors there haha Plus I had to listen to all the events at the stadium and get trapped with all the stadium traffic on occasion haha. But it wasn't bad.

    we'll be running it leading into Rock Therapy this year...

    i've heard people take a trailer back there...there's a couple spots that would be tricky..

    there's a few tricky spots...a large ledge that will test your hitch articulation, the chute will test your low gear and brakes, and the climb up grey mesa will test your nerves...but that's just from my readings not personal experiences yet...so there could be more

    but i know kurt williams (@cruiseroutfit ) has done it as well as Tomas Dawson which can be read about in the July 2013 FJC Magazine, http://www.magcloud.com/webviewer/596764?__r=9130&s=v (page 32 on the online version)

    Thanks for the info.I haven't seen that specific article. That is about all Ive found in my research and videos I've watched. Doesn't seam bad at all. But after pulling the trailer around a little yesterday and airing out the tent, I think I'm going to put the tent on the roof. It's only me in the truck and 4 other trucks so trailer probably more a liability than necessary. We r going The third week of March.

    yea that's a tough decision...do you really want to be "that guy" or take the easy route and roll with it on the roof...i think the tippiest section would be the ascent up grey mesa, so top heavy shouldn't be a big concern...i know woody recently did HITR with his 80 which had a RTT on the roof with no issues...

    but if you guys are one to take a leisurely pace, the trailer could be a fun challenge


    but that article shows those tricky spots i mentioned
