    I was addressing @MattJakobs ’37s on IFS’ comment.

    lots of wear and tear on components with 37s. But With that said, there are products out there that can potentially hold up. Tundra rack, better axles, etc. chances are if you go 37s you’re knowledgeable to upgrade those components along with it.

    Finally found some spare time to do a small project. This has been sitting on my workbench for over two years. Now that I look at I can’t remember how the fuck it’s supposed to mount on my Relentless hidden hitch rear bumper area. The holes don’t line up. Fuck.

    I used a CB mic wire since there like a pigs tail, allows you to leave some slack at moving parts areas and it retracts back.

    Looks like half the 1000 string. Saw a few good ones a friend took down there. Holy crap it was wet and washed out a lot of places.

    Well it started to flurry at Chester flats this afternoon. Looks like it will be white and frozen by about 4 am.
    Awesome weekend for turkey day and a Wheeling trip for Christmas tree???

    Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving I’ll be a pointer telling some folks where some trees are, as long as the snow don’t get to deep.

    My experiences, this is not a week to be driving that Donner pass. Been hitting flurries all day. I'm 10 min from Elko at the moment. No snow yet and seen cars sideways pointing the wrong direction. Just went over this pass at 630. Shit is slick. Was breaking traction 20191125_183423.jpg 20191125_182841.jpg

    Drive safe.

    First storm is always the worst. It’s like people forget how to drive in inclement over the summer.

    This storm is shaping up to be a good one!

    Thank Nick. This I'm aware of, seen to many of these storms like this and drivers on the road, why I'm going to tell them I'm bailing.
