    DAMN things like this make me wish I lived in Cali.

    Not enough TW member where I live. I wish I could do something like this. Down here in TX I got a beach meet going. 15 ppl said they would show up and only 5 did including myself. Only two of us had 4x4's. Everybody else was getting stuck. Nobody really has a reason to buy a 4x4 down here. No hills, it never snows, nothing. Most people down here that buy a 4x4 do it cuz they want to.

    Those are some awesome pics guys!
