    Living the best of both worlds I see. I haven't had Britts yet but sounds like I'm gonna have to check em out! I'm assuming they're open spring/summer months...? How are they in comparison to say a Duck Donut?

    Thanks buddy! I definitely agree. Great area! Kinda low key...real quiet in the winter but busy enough in the spring/summer. Most the locals are good people too!

    North End pass for Carolina Beach is 150$ a year unless u get the pass. Dec 1 thru Dec 15, then its only $75. Otherwise i think its 20-30 each time u drive out.Southend costs $12 to drive on. Not really any good trails. Sutton Lake outside of wilmington was ok until officials started cracking down on people. Theres green swamp but its lots of mud, not really technical trails. If u come down, hit me up.

    Thanks brutha! I admit I do miss her a bit :anonymous:... she was a beast! I checked out your build thread...fire!

    Our backstories are eerily similar. Shortly after I got mine, my brother purchased a 17 Inferno TRD Offroad and then a few months back my step-dad traded his Ford Ranger for a 15 TRD Sport. YotaFam!

    Hell yeah! Thanks for checking out my build man. I love this truck but sadly haven’t been modding too much lately. Have to step away every now and again, but soon enough! I’m trying to eat my wife to buy a 4R so I can have the bets of both worlds, she’s liking the idea
