January 2018 Seattle-Area Meet

Put a few shovelfuls of snow in the back of your truck. Old indian trick.

 

Have to be back to pick up a friend at the airport at 6pm :/

 

Just picked up my rig from MULE yesterday. 4.88's and front and rear air lockers. WOOT!

 

Not a bad idea.... burn the weight on the way in.... melt the weight on the way out

 

Not that anyone asked but I won't be able to get the time off work. I'll keep an eye out for future chances for you guys to get my stock truck unstuck though for sure.

 

I don't know why but how you started that had me laughing out loud



I'm in the same boat, I have Tues/Wed off... aka no TW meets, for a good while

 

So that was your rig hanging out on the lift then.


Anybody driving up from Puyallup/Tacoma and want to meet up before heading up to North Bend?

 

I know it was previously asked... but I just want to confirm... This route is going to be doable for 100% stock trucks driven by a newb/idiot driver?
I've maxed out on battle scars for my truck in it's first year lol

Also, started the roll-call in the OP, if I didn't catch you, lemme know.

 

I'll have my dog with me.
If @Korndog1284 is going, I'm sure his wife and kiddos will be there too
So ya, safe to say it's kids/dogs friendly aside from the campfire banter

 

It's actually a paved road that we'll start out on. From there we just evaluate conditions. No specific route, and it's all forest service roads.

 

Instead of a campout what do you guys think about an overland trip?

 

I’m coming from the Tacoma area and would be down to meet up before hand.

 

Red one yea. Don't laugh. Les Chooch needs a bath for sure. Did you work on it?

 

I feel you girl. I did $2,300 in repair in my first 6 months. Crushed a rocker and fender ew. xD

 

Yep, it stings at first but once you resign to its inevitability, you let it go and embrace it full on.
And figure out how to make more money!

 

yikes!!! in the end, i didn't care about the side steps as I knew one day they will be replaced with sliders... i'm just sad the body has a couple scrapes now.

if only i were in the tech industry...

 

like maybe do a section of the WBDR?

I'll double check it against the snow parks, see if I can get a route.

 

If we can hit the WABDR That would be awesome!

 

I feel like I should just throw this out there being the nervous nelly that I am... If I counted right, we have 7 people who say they're going, so we need to make sure the route we chose is going to be wide and big enough for that many trucks. Especially in the event we need to turn around.
