    I agree.. If it wasn't for me and Alex talking people into not taking the bypass I think it would only have been me and him that went through the obstacles.

    That was @penguins_cc . His rear diff grenaded, which didn't really have much to do with the trail other than it may have helped it along. I'm not sure if it's still an issue in current tacos, but it used to be a standard issue that the gears were assembled poorly at the factory and led to failure. I had mine replaced early on. The entire Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue FJCs went in for service at the same time as me. Can't remember who else I knew had to get this done as well.

    Post up in ADVRider and ThumperTalk at the very least. Lots of eyes in those forums.

    so it sounds like we got 3 already haha (EDIT: 4 haha)

    Everyone's got their own comfort levels, and I understand. But these trucks are insanely capable and 99 times out of 100, the driver's ability depletes well before the capabilities of the truck. It takes time and seein others do the unthinkable haha...and repetition (or at least thats what it took for me...and im STILL learning something new every trip :thumbsup:)

    update from north Idaho. Game cameras getting pics of decent bucks on my Dad's property. So far I've been sitting in the woods and watching moose walk back and forth though. Fun when they don't know you are there. Yesterday I saw a cow and I could swear she had a tracking collar on but didn't get a chance to take a pic.

    Here is my primary target


    And here is a bull that showed up for picture day

    Well I had an interesting afternoon.. If you haven't heard there was a student walk out going on at UW campuses and I'm sure many others.
    Well I was in the bathroom and 2 girls with a mini megaphone came in and started yelling something about walk out and "fuck trump" as I'm peeing. I turned around and said "fuck off im peeing" so she decided to get closer and yell it more, so I turned around and peed on her a bit until she left. Have to meet with the dean since she complained but he already emailed me saying I'm not in trouble

    Cool. Time to stir the pot a bit. Perhaps start my talk with a giant MAGA statement!

    Yeah haha apparently they are marching through Bothell now with signs that say "wall street is the enemy not muslims or immigrants" and "#Education matters".. kinda ironic since they walked out of class to protest that.

    Yeah I'm sure thats what he'll tell me. They came back into my class after I got back to class grabbing people by the door to come walk out with them and no one in my class did.

    I'm not a fan of Trump (or Clinton for that matter, not that I can vote in this country anyway so it doesn't really matter) but there is a time and place for everything. Walking in on somebody while nature is calling to try and recruit them to your cause is stupid and she should be the one being reprimanded. You can bet damn well if the situation were reversed and a couple of dudes walked in on a group of women openly using the facilities that you would be having a much different meeting with the Dean.

    Yeah the whole situation is just messed up. There is a way to protest but this obviously isn't it.
