Trail Run October 14

I'm tentative, pending wife's permission.

 

Looks like a reschedule anyways, no ones confirmed for it. Maybe we can get a small group together and check out tepui fest

 

an early run to Hollister would prolly work for me!

 

also i just ordered a couple of these HAM radios.

might be good for everyone to have since reception is so spotty on these trails. i know technically we need licenses, but seems like a good thing to have in case anyone ever gets separated / lost from the group. *ahem* @Dave2017Taco @Batman! lol. and for $35 it's a pretty cheap safety mod.

 

Clowning lol
The question remains “how did a brightas$ orange Tacoma get lost “
Lmao

 

I have one of those Baofeng radios from suggestions here!

But I don't think I can make it this Saturday

 

I'll be there Saturday afternoon till Sunday afternoon

 

Kinda tempted to go up. Might be a bit crowded with the festival.

 

does the coral hallow trail is connect to slickrock trail? that's what i watched from youtube. anyways im down!, just count me in i wanna explore more trails

 

I don't think they are connected (could be wrong), but they appear to be near each other. I've done the corral hollow trail a few times it's a nice little cruise. I've been wanting to check out slick rock but would be down for either.

 

Oh and I learned that tree beats tail lamps at Hollister this weekend.

 

What happened

 

Ass end of the truck slid into a ditch while climbing an incline. There just happened to be a tree at the bottom of it...

 

On the bright side now you have a perfectly good excuse to get a high clearance armored plate rear bumper?

 

Dude, I ordered it like 16 weeks ago.. it's being powder coated now hopefully I should see in in another couple weeks.

The true silver lining is that I now have an excuse to pick up a new set of tail lights. I've been itching to order these for the past couple weeks...

 

Wow, those are nice tail lights. Which fabricator did you go to for the rear bumper?

 

I ordered a Pelfreybilt

 

After this last trip though, I'm starting to see the appeal of adding the extra bit of tube to protect the brake lights like some of the other fabricators do.

 

Like this....

Just don't do what I did, have a rear armor but not the back.... it looks incomplete. At least that's what I tell myself.

 

Nice truck man, that front end looks good kinda miss mine sometimes.. But I'm thinking I might hit up someone that is skilled at welding (cough cough hi @Bentrodder )and see if they can add that extra tube by the tail lights. ..
I already have a front plate bumper, this thing has come in handy a few times, visibility in these trucks really suck and I'm not always patient enough to wait for a spotter...
