    Don't worry about refilling it, it's a jeep thing.

    Bumper looks good man! It's tough to make a mount that'll adapt to every single option or light bar out there good solution made there.
    Don't think that little water puddle would cause any issues. I remember bombing around Croatan in my old Tercel and my buddies Sidekick! Cool place for some mud bogging.

    That one wasn’t as deep as we thought. A few were a little deeper.
    As long as I am not running through mud holes consistently I should be ok. But I am going back out in the morning looking for the buck that left some nice tracks beyond the mud holes.
    The guy I was with has an old ‘99 dodge with a 360. I told him his dodge is not allowed to pull me out! He called me once when he sunk his dodge to the axles in mud in the Croatan,but my old gen1 3.4L pulled him out!

    I’ve never seen the allure of living in Raleigh or the surrounding areas. This weekend has changed that.. spent three days just south of downtown Durham and I could definitely live there. Such a cool scene.

    Jessi booked us for the zombie paintball place north of Raleigh.. that place was the only bad experience we had haha. Such a ripoff out there and the sad thing is that it could be so awesome if they ran things a little bit better

    Where in Durham did you stay, near Southpoint mall? Durham has a really cool downtown than what it use to be. I'd suggest hitting up MotorCo, Fullsteam, Blue Note Grill (good BBQ and top notch ribs), and Tobacco District (lots of cool eateries). Next time you come to the Bull City let me know those are my old childhood stomping grounds.
