    Had a z71 that only showed bearing wear by wearing the pads at an angle. Apparently that's common but was a first for me.

    Looking for a short-bed camper shell if anyone knows of one for sale. Preferably black but might consider other colors. Thanks!

    Hey all, just learned this has been postponed:

    Team,

    We apologize for the late notice, but due to unforeseen circumstances we are going to have to reschedule the Quail Forever Banquet that was going to be held Tuesday, September 25, 2018. We hope to reschedule this event soon and will notify everyone as soon as a new date is determined. In the meantime, we again apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

    If you have already purchased tickets, you will receive a refund.

    Thank you,

    Quail Forever Atlanta

    Just accepted an offer in ATL, so I'll be heading that way sometime in the next month.

    Adios Texas and Hello Georgia. I know I'm not leaving heat or traffic, but will be glad to get back somewhere that identifies as Southern instead of teetering on the line of Western. New office will be in Norcross. I'm open to recommendations on where I should look for housing. Priorities (somewhat in order): safe neighborhood, good schools, space (prefer .5 acre or more), commute distance.

    Lived in Norcross for 5 yrs. Part I lived in is now Peachtree Corners. Great elementary school (Simpson) there are others. It's a great area and I have made many friends there. PM me if you want any other specifics.

    I've already been looking up Tray Mountain (which I gather is closed due to a passable washout) and Mt. Helen. Definitely looking forward to hitting some trails.

    Also interested in hunting, but that can be a conversation saved for in person.

    I used to live in Johns Creek a while ago; it only took me like 10 minutes to get to one of my contractor's offices in Norcross (which is unheard of trying to get anywhere remotely near ATL). I liked the area, it was safe/spacious/etc, BUT it was very expensive.

    I'm going to send you a PM in a minute, I've got some suggestions.

    What kind of hunting? I'm a quail hunter myself with two bird dogs. Always looking for more hunting buddies.

    +1 on the Johns Creek, its where I live and its convenient to Norcross. More information to follow in a PM.

    Yeah not too much good wheeling left in GA. Mostly easy forest roads that have one or two "obstacles." If you want some fun wheeling go to TN i.e AOP and Windrock

    Well, that's a shame, but "not many" is better than "none." If I want to do any public trails in Texas, I have to drive to Arkansas or Colorado....

    10 hours or so into CO.

    8 hours to the Ozarks.

    Either way, you gotta drive for a while. Both are beautiful!

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    I am about to drop some big boulders in my backyard! Who wants to crawl inside the perimeter!

    Same crap everyone else got
    Me!! you're over in grant park area right? My grand pa's house was there. (lived there form 1940-2010). We sold his house to some flippers and they sold hit for almost 4 times what we sold it for after it was done. The area is getting really nice so they definitely need some rigs and boulders there to slow the gentrification process hahaha.
