    Besided whats been listed, I enjoy Offroad Hub on YouTube. He's got a FJ Cruiser and has a ton of trail video with good commentary. It was also fun watching the progression of the FJ from basically stock to going SAS on 42's.

    I do subscribe to 4WD247 because it's fun to watch the Aussies rip it up in $100K+ dream rigs without doing it myself and destroying my own truck. Lots of good ideas to spend money on that channel. Hide your credit card.[/QUOTE]

    So thats how you do it... let them trash the rig and you watch. I enjoy the adrenaline, so that tube doesn't quiet make the grade. Nothing quiet like being stuck, on your own with a long hike ahead if you screw up... but see, you are the TW research guru!

    I drove to Deadhorse back in 97 when the haul road first opened to the public... didn't have a winch, come-along or anything resembling recovery gear (although I did have a full size spare-I was on 35's back then.) Road is pretty tame now days... The trip they did in in Canada was more my style-though that much chainsaw work would have been miserable!

    Day one was alright. Got some maintenance on the truck done which always feels good, but also one of those days where I was just a little clumsy in everything that I did which doesn't feel so good lol. Today the road trip starts and will really feel like vacation :)

    This is a real adventure. I first read about this back in the 9th grade, 32 years ago. Found an issue of Four-wheeler magazine in the school library. I took magazine and never returned it.

    I must say that, now that I have gotten myself into a few pickles, it can definitely add a little excitement. Plus, it's nice to justify owning all of the recovery gear.
