NW WA Meet / BS Thread

With Chinook pass closed, it may very well have been an attempted shortcut using the fs roads.

 

St Maxx disappointed me today. 98 Cherokee on Ko2s had no problem, my tires pissed themselves the second we got into 6" of snow. Shame. I couldn't imagine that semi had a good time

 

Not aired down?

 

Jacks pass got 3-4 feet of snow we were there Friday-Saturday and it snowed the whole time we were there

 

Down to 20psi.

 

I'd go down even further, down to single digits.

 

That low huh? Alright. I'll give it a shot next time.

 

I'd go to 10 and see how that feels/performs. Below 10psi you're approaching bead separation territory.

 

That looks fun. Seems you were plowing this just fine in fresh powder. Once I fix my wheel bearing may need to head out...

 

Tried to roll my truck getting under this fallen tree and then sliding my ass end into a pretty good ditch. Wish I coulda go a picture with 3 wheels on the ground but I was in kind of a hurry to get my winch hooked up and tight. Wont forget my chainsaw again

 

Not nearly enough. The sidewalls on the Maxx are stiff. You need to be down to 10-12. The Maxx are great in snow

 

BOLO!!!!


2006 f450 super duty service truck with miller welder and mi-t-m air compressor mounted above the box. Pretty much all my tools where in that truck.


Also our 1999 f350 4x4 xcab superduty power stroke disappeared over the weekend. Protech headache rack and off-road diesel transfer tank in the back.

 

I haven't had that issue on deep snow since there's little to no friction when turning. I do have c-rated tires though, which have more give and play too.

 

shiit

 

Holy shit, you guys had TWO work trucks stolen this weekend? Did you fire someone recently?

 

Fucken scum. Who the hell steals from people with explosives and equipment that can dig huge holes. At this point in the game I’m not even sure if stealing is illegal anymore and just more or less becoming socially acceptable. Hopefully they sent you a social worker to help you feed your family now that someone has your tools and work truck. It’s just property you didn’t need that shit anyways.

 

I'm going to go ahead and kick the hornets nest and say that when someone broke into my car last year I didn't even bother calling the cops because the time it happened before they acted like i was fucking bothering them by reporting it. Then told me that there was no way they would find the person after refusing to even come look at the car.

 

Same thing happened when my mailbox was burglarized twice two summers ago. I asked them if I should bother calling them to pick up the corpse if the asshole tries for thirds.

Funny thing is, the postal inspector DID take it seriously, started an investigation and arrested a suspect and asked me to testify (court date TBD, probably after this Wuhan flu is thru).

 

Anyone have a victory roof rack? Looking for a front fairing with out the lightbar cutout. An wants to trade the front for a lightbar cutout one.

 

We had a thief ravaging about a 15 mile stretch of HWY 20 during September and October. He was caught red handed packing my buddies guns out of his house by neighbor. Came back a week later and was caught by a Ring at another neighbors house and spooked. He was on video after ripping off the mini storage units. On camera again at the DOT shed. Rolled a brand new Husqvarna dirt bike out in broad daylight on camera. I found his ass in a pull off one day scoping out a house in a back rd. I called the sheriff to let them know where he was hiding and was told they would let the next shift know and not to worry about it because it’s that time of year when property crimes drop off. He then broke into a house and shot at someone. A week later he was a passenger in a car accident and escaped. They finally caught him and have him on 13 felony charges. He was out on bail for you guessed it possession of stolen firearms from last Christmas Eve when he got caught. They let him out because of COVID. He’s been to prison for shoot out in North Bend with the King county Sheriffs in a hotel where he kicked a hole through the motel room wall and took a hostage. The guy he shot at in October had to go to court and speak because the prosecutor was gonna let him out again because of COVID. Insane he has a 650k bail this will be his 3rd trip back to the pen. I would be beyond pissed if I was the Sheriff to finally nab a guy like that only to have him kicked right back out on the street again and again.
