DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

ya zac had issues with the altitude as well. We were there in September also and it wasn't bad at all we camped off Imogen at 11k+ feet and were cozy in the RTT

 

Something that has worked for me and anybody I take to high altitude for the first time... we stay the night in Amarillo (3600' elevation) on the way up to help with the acclimation since most of DFW is around 500-800 ft. Then the first night in CO I try to stay below 8500 and usually we're all good to go up higher after that with no issues. Now that I'm near the water and at 27' elevation I have to be extra mindful when I travel up there.

Those quick trips up high can be brutal.

 

Im from Amarillo and thats the only reason I would go back there lol

 

I like to camp in the Canadian River Rec area and do a bit of night wheeling when I'm going to/from the mountains. Plus it has the first Whataburger I can hit when on the way home

 

hahaha yeah i cant even tell you how many times ive stayed out there, tons of dirt bike riding has been done there by me.

 

Good idea... will have to do this when I make my trip as I would like to camp up on Alpine loop somewhere...

 

Camping up high is awesome. Depending on how high you get be prepared for below freezing temps at night even during August.

 

Im going to have to make it to CO this year. That looks amazing.

 

I stayed in Amarillo, didn’t help a crazy amount. Our house we stayed in while we were in CO was sick though.

 

Nice!

Part of me wants to find a cabin to stay in one night... just so I can.

 

@Tacoaric You need another Ferd.

 

Next truck is something to the tune of this-

I work at Sam Packs in Lewisville. I'm in parts but let me know if I can help with anything.

 

$90k? I could have a taco and a gtr for that

 

I bought a 2014 F150 FX4 from you guys back in 2014! just had my dads F250 serviced there a few months ago.

Usually buy all my shit from Lewisville Autoplex. They overpay for my stuff lol

 

Doesnt bother me. They buy all their Ford parts from me. Job security at its finest.

 

Depends on said Taco and said GTR. Lol.

 

keep my taco and buy this https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/l-Used-Nissan-GT-R-d1103#listing=198400949 already been shopping lol

 

Let me know if you need GTR parts to. I know a guy. And I literally dont know anyone with a GTR under 1000hp lol.

 

I tried that once lol. Can’t do cars so I passed. Id much prefer a 997 turbo after beating the shit out of this 2014 black edition
