NE area wheeling trip plans

Id be up for this Sunday for the RI spot. Should be sunny and a high of 70.


We can call it the COVIDrun?
Sorry if its corny

 

I’m down. My weekend opened up. It’s probably going to be really busy so if we get more interest we might want to break it into smaller groups so we can realistically move aside for other groups.

 

I've been farting around their forums a lot today and saw them talking about finding some more stock friendly, or stock challenging trails. So you're not the only one looking for something stock suited!

 

You'd be amazed what a stock truck could do. Course I have armor to make up for my craptastic driving, but yours is a foot shorter than mine.

 

slap on some sliders and these things will go! Can’t keep up with jeeps all the time but then not much can.

 

Stock you'll be fine but you need to lose the beard and maybe the tire flaps.
Just follow the line in front of you.

 

I was talking in general. Yeah I have an OR so didn’t have the splitter. I pulled my mud flaps off yesterday there were a few times I hit them out there in the RI woods. But yeah those trails are very stock friendly. A few challenging spots but nothing terrible. I just mean trails in general, sliders and you’re good, might not keep up with jeeps all the time though.

 

ENH is an awesome group, and great way to learn some legal places to go. Stock trucks are fine on stock runs. Like anything else there's always a risk you could damage it, but chances are low if you don't drive like a tard. A lot of the obstacles look much more intimidating than they actually are for a stock truck.

 

Just to echo this, my first time out in the RI woods we did the rock ledge by the sand pit - the sounds, etc scared the bajeebus out of me - I thought I had demolished my rocker panels, was kicking myself for going out there above my/my trucks ability, etc etc. The next weekend I made it up no problem and got out to help spot someone else and watching other trucks go up, I realized how much clearance I probably had.

 

Ri trail damage report from last weekend tight spot out on the CT line, bent inner tie rod on a stump. Wtf

 

Too much send.. Is it scratched all the way down to bare metal?

 

Ooooof. Looks like your bed took a hit too, yeesh - what did you hit?

 

Well your truck was pretty nice...

I thought you had sliders too?

We're you in the logging area?

 

Let me talk with the lady and see if we have anything planned. We were talking about taking her Jeep up to Harris mtn with a couple friends of mine who have some serious rigs, but they decided to go Saturday instead.

 

Who is thinking of going this sunday to the ri spot?

 

I'm down either day this weekend, not to lead. And maybe both days, let's be honest wtf else is there to do.

 

What stump did you bend the inner on? Jeez I was leading the way and i didnt clap any stumps. Weld some kickouts on your sliders dude it saved my shit lol

 

I work saturdays, so Sunday would be it for me

 

I was just out in trails close to home not wheeling trails. The puddles are the size of Montana so Sunday would be better anyway.

 

I plan to explore some class 6 roads this weekend on Sunday. Pembroke NH, any takers?
