    The cruise control in my 4.0 is awesome. Mind you it doesn't have any control over gear selection.

    I work this Monday, but two weeks from this coming Monday I'm off!

    We're headed out tomorrow after I get my truck back together, gonna make some coffee and lunch. If you're around you're more than welcome to come!

    I don't think the trail is 100 percent decided yet. I was hoping for bowater but it may be too tight for Ben's liking

    I am helping my buddy move tomorrow morning, and little Andrew's 2nd birthday party in the afternoon (he's getting a toy truck). I think I have that Monday off though.

    Yes. That makes 7!

    I'm sure there are a few trails around you wouldn't have any issues with provided you don't mind pin stripes

    Thanks Ben and Jeep Kyle for the help :D

    Both races slid off the hub.. it was a small victory in this war against wheel bearing failures RIP #7

    My Flickr seems to be working at work and my computer actually connects to the internet at home, I may start bringing my DSLR along for runs again.

    I have a buttload of pictures on it now I'll have to have a pic dump in the coming days

    Depending on the trail you'd probably be okay if you air down. Rocky Myra isn't a struggle unless you make it one.

    At the moment there's not a whole lot of snow anyhow, just frosty as fuck out!

    During the thaw I'm sure we will be able to get out and have some fun regardless.

    @Canoehead I have this coming Monday off. What's your schedule like?

    once you guys are done the trail, how do you air the tires back up? just drive to the closest gas station, or does some one bring an air compressor?

    Some people bring a compressor. Some people run OBA, some people go to the gas station, some people don't air down.

    I've been running 15ish pounds in my tires for almost two weeks now. I'm not overly worried about it. I'll air them up Wednesday when I have the truck in the garage!
