    We had to see it for ourselves.

    I have a scuff on my fender flare that proves you were right.

    That would be Chaos Canyon, which is a fun trail.

    I'll give you a pass on that one. :D

    Definitely in my top three favorite trails at that park.

    One of these days I won't bypass the sketchier part of the rock garden in there. Most of it's doable, but there's one big boulder that catches me every time.

    I thought you were talking about a different trail. Lyndall questioned it about half way down but I was leading and said it was not Desi...How wrong I was.

    @MJS
    Glad to see some of the pics getting used.

    Good looking truck and nice avatar! I read in the original post you used it to tow a boat and was wondering how big it was? Doing some boat shopping and want to make sure the 4.0 can keep up

    Mine is a Cajun Center Console 18.5'. Taco pulls it OK...brakes were a little questionable with a boat that heavy which is why I upgraded the fronts. Get about 10-11MPG when towing it.

    Finished the job. Ended up using 7 of the daytime running light LEDs with a quick Conn on each. Does a decent job for not having one in the middle on the passenger side. Accomplished that by having one above the driveshaft. That way no wires have to cross the exhaust.

    Switching on and off is by using the parking lights. Used relay logic to turn them back off when low beam headlights are engaged. They will come back on with brights due to that lol.IMG_20160919_190200.jpg

    Took off the Prinsu rack today...no more hat.

    Ended up filling the factory roof rack holes with silicone caulk and then covering them with foam tape (belt+suspenders). Luckily I had saved my trim pieces although I feel like those need to be taped on...there is not much holding them down.

    I really wasn't using it (especially since I sold the kayak) and it does add some wind noise in high wind highway conditions. So now can use the $ for rear bumper or wheel/tire fund.

    Recently replaced 2 of 4 tires after another sidewall gash, but this weekend topped it - ripped right through my front passenger tire! It was a bad line right on top of a sharp rock at Barnwell :anonymous:

    At least this time it was an older one and I had another of its older tire brethren to swap for it. Hopefully this time discount tire doesn't forget half of my valve caps :facepalm:

    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    Just ask to speak to the manager first, then...

    No tires lost this trip! Did some wheeling with @bakerla at Hidden Falls. Terrain was pretty much what I expected.
