    I bet that does suck. Being private and not government works in our favor with some stuff like that, but we still have limitations and have to stay secure and whatnot since we do government work. God forbid you guys find out about a boiler I'm designing to be replaced. Hot water is top secret.

    Which should be called fire roads other than 14 which I had to use my slider to keep me off the embankment all the way down. That rain made things go south quick!

    In all honesty, not much there would be considered green at any other park. Those greens at AOP were even to some blues at Stoney or even Chocco. They need to have more than 3 trail classifications. If you look at the black mountain trail map it has like 6 classifications lol

    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    Did you look at your dif to see any scratches after getting hung up on the rock at the bottom? Im actually suprised you were able to get up out of the ruts. I was getting ready to give you a tug

    Oh yea, its nice and scratched up. The whole bottom was already missing paint, but it goes all the way up the side now too:rofl:

    I thought I was too, Kayla actually picked the line to get off. I was impressed!

    Well gonna go by McKinnon toyota later today. I'll be wearing my seatbelt for sure since idk how long it's been leaking.

    They better not claim this is from offroading lol, I'll be so upset. Have to explain to them this is the reason I didn't buy here.

    Edit. Btw I've already had recall performed.

    To me it's built up around that bottom drain. So it's as if they didn't check it when recall was performed.

    The bolts loose and all oil is coming from it.

    all of that looks to be coming from around the drain plug. Like they didn't put the crush washer on or did't torque properly.

    Reasons why my truck never sees a dealership.

    Check the housing bolts before you take it to them. Mine was leaking pretty bad after Moab. Come to find out the bolts had just loosened up and needed to be tightened. No more leak.
