    Still planning on going out this weekend and camping overnight if anyone is interested. Plan A is to drive up to Gallagher then camp at Van Epps mine camp. Plan B is to hop on WABDR at Ardenviour and head north.

    Just a Relentless bumper and winch. The preload isn't even cranked up very far, as I didn't want to worry about the CV angles/boots.

    Still haven't heard back from aFe regarding any applicable warranty. Personally, I've never heard of a CO spring snapping in multiple places with only 20k miles on them, especially on a well-cared-for DD/work truck. It's gotta be some kind of manufacturing defect in the spring steel :notsure:

    Appreciate that! Luckily I've been borrowing a vehicle for work while I'm trying to get this sorted. Hopefully I can get the CO warranty figured out soon.

    Or... perhaps this just means it's time for LT or SAS?

    Alright all you camera gurus @Nimitz @AWilson013 @utroda and whoever else I may have missed. I'm tired of being in epic places and coming back with shitty iPhone pics
    IMG_0261.jpg
    This had potential to be a great photo but is just sub par potatoe junk. Any recommendations for a beginner who will strictly use camera for outdoorsy nature pics?
    Also...I don't really have thousands to throw into this

    I love my Nikon. I don't know much about editing or specifics into lenses like those dudes do but here are some budget good beginner options. Just type into craigslist Nikon DSLR to find more. Canon is another quality option but I prefer Nikon over that.

    Yeah I am not looking to get too crazy into it either. I just want to be able to have some better quality photos! Those are cheaper than expected! I feel like Nikon vs Canon is the Xbox vs PS battle lol

    Yeah it pretty much is. Basically what ever brand you started on is the one you'll favor for ever. Here are some of mine without any editing

    A camera is a great investment in my opinion.

    Def going to have to do some research here. Also, anyone have Sun-Mon off? I'll have the next 4 Sundays and Mondays off and am hoping to go on some day trips or shooting trips.
