    I like my Uniden. I think @fishfinder has a Cobra.

    I really want to go to Oregon.

    If you are going late september, I'll be heading north to Reno. Maybe we can link up to camp somewhere on the way.

    That sounds like fun but I'm planning on skipping CA on my way up. Going directly to Ashland. How long will you be camping about for?

    You should check out the McKenzie River up there, and an off shoot called horse creek. Just spent a few days up there, awesome spot!

    I finally got a laptop so I'll be more active once again. I've since been on a 3 week road trip and two Mammoth trips. On the road trip i went through AZ, UT, CO, WY, MT, ID, WA, OR and back down CA. Camped in so many great national forests and on friends couches. I have photos coming around but I shot everything in film... So maybe one day i'll get around to scanning it.

    I also got into a little collision and may have purchased myself a shinny new bumper. Thankfully the collision wasn't my fault. Hopefully I'll have it in a month!

    I also got around to cleaning and regressing my UCA's. Gotta keep my shiny things nice. 700# springs on the way for the front suspension too!

    Took off my bent up fender and hammered only a single mounting bracket back into place. Went over to John Briggs Motorsports in Goleta and picked up my new fender. I go there every time I need body work and they really hooked it up with this new fender.

    Pelfreybilt bumper should be ready between the 12th-26th!

    Just realized I haven't shared my stealth camping setup yet. Super simple and has come in handy many many times.

    Picked up my front bumper in San Diego on my way to Arizona the other day! King put a hold on my #700 coil overs but Pelfreybilt is sending them out to me with no added charge. Those should get to me about mid Feb now. Also ordered some lights from Caliraised

    The day before I drove over, I also got my swing put on with Pelfreybilt's new spindle and latch system. It didn't get finished 100% but just a couple more small things are needed. I have @deadhed61 's first rear bumper, which is Pelfreybilt's first generation.

    Whoops, fixed your name ha.
    Fender flairs will go back on after my caster has been adjusted. Then comes the fun of trimming them to match the front bumper lines :sawzall:

    It only took me a year and a half to get it all done with... A buddy of mine who usually works on BMW's and works at a fab shop in carp I believe. He did my sliders as well. Tig welded my sliders cheaper than a quote for a mig job from a shop
