    Yeah. Al's isn't bad, reminds me of the Tommy burger in Grandma's Boy. I'd be coming from Chelsea, which is an hour from South Burlington. There isn't really anywhere to hang out, at least I don't think, outside of A and W in Middlebury and various locals in Burlington. We could always just meet up in the parking lot of some place somewhere and TAILGATE!

    Nice. Just like mine. I haven't done wheels or tires yet. What else have you done to your truck besides the shell and the wheels/tires?

    I didn't realize you already had a Taco when you were seeking input on DCSB's for sale around NE. Did you go see the one at Boch? In a way I'm sorry you caught the 6 cylinder bug, in a way I'm not. They're great trucks.

    I was talking to Jason at 4x4 Center about your truck, he was very impressed with your leaf springs.

    nothing wrong with truck.
    i just would like to have a bit more speed when going uphill and a double cab wouldn't hurt either.

    haven't made it down to boch yet.

    I'm fairly new to VT, are there a lot of good spots around here?

    Vermont is full of class 3/4 roads In manny townships that are old wagon roads and are maintained by atvs and locals that don't advertise on the internet. They can be found on GPS and town maps. So manny that you just need to start exploding and discover depending where you live. Less in Burlington chaplain valley and more as you move into the heart of vermont and its townships. Lots of forest land and roads to explor Allso. We like to fined new routs east and west over the montains and gaps do to the fact that we have family in SE Vermont and we live in Vergennes. The best thing about vermont is that you can alnost get anywhere by dirt road and trails!

    I wouldn't say world class routes but there is plenty to keep you busy. Smugglers notch has a ton of routes from V nothing on up to V 6. I'm sure there are harder routes but that's as far as I needed to go. There's also a couple gyms, metro rock and Petra cliffs.

    I am thinking that one was cleaner? Has the Baja all over the bed. I don't think either was bad but frame condition is more concern for me than the rest.
    I'm at 150k like 0 issues not self inflected. The warranty will expire before the mechanical on these is my experience.
    Handys have a few others also.
    It'd be worth the trip to have a look maybe?
