    I feel like it's christmas morning as a kid.. and the presents have been opened.. and there is that period where everyone looks at each other like "what do we do now?"

    I got my truck back! Seems part of the issue was fixed, the steering wheel finally talks back now. Heard a loud pop in my suspension as it cycled over the entrance of the apartments entrance so; I still have some searching to do. I'll tighten the a bolts tomorrow and see if that helps. If not, it's a bushing, tie rods, sway bar links, or ball joints.

    Betweens the ruts at PINS, the park road at Big Bend, Hidden Falls, and whatever the previous owner did I'm willing to bet something needs servicing.

    Well just an update. We've decided to stay one more night here at hidden falls. So I'll be here all day tomorrow and leaving Sunday morning. If anyone is interested in wheeling tomorrow shoot me a PM.

    Shit, y'all were so distracted with Chads truck y'all let @rocklobster2008 spend his first time at HF alone! @Toyboata and I might be joining him tomorrow for some wheeling and camping if anyone wants to tag. We'd probably be doing harder trails though, nothing someone with a locker and sliders can't handle with some good spotting but nothing too serious. If you come don't expect to be doing park roads though.

    Also @ChadsPride truck is lookin badass brotha
