    Head unit. That's it.
    Just wash the truck really well soon after mudding.


    I typically hook up a sprinkler to the hose and just leave it under the truck for hours.....moving it around.

    Alright y'all so while we were at C&C there was some talk about possibly renting out the new drive in in S.Austin for a meet and a movie. I have looked into it and it actually seems pretty reasonably priced. The more people the better when it comes to cost so i want to get a feeler of who'd be down. Its $250 for two people and $15 per person up to a total of 15 for one level ($445 for 15 people) or $475 for upto 30 people. so price depends on attendance.

    It is a BYOB facility for those of you that may get thirsty. And you can bring in or coordinate catering. I would be willing to ask if we can do our own bbq/skottle cooking as well if we get a group together.

    We were talking about some cool old movie like Smokey and the Bandit ( @Spansfelder hasn't seen it ) but that is open to a vote too.

    Whos in?


    I suppose if we get enough traction ill create a new thread for it, but for now lets just feel it out
