    I am torn between the aluminum or the brass (Onyx vs Permanent.) Also going to throw an emergency in the truck as well.

    Nope, ordered straight from Australia. It only took about a week to arrive.

    The benefit is the exchange rate, even with shipping. There's no Australian tax that can be applied and the USD outweighs the AUD.

    Anyone that says they don't have time for my bullshit needs to get started a little earlier in the day.

    I agree with @pearing

    Let's see, you have the main things covered. Armor, suspension, solar/aux power, sleeping setup. Larger tires would complement everything you've done. You should be able to take that thing anywhere. Probably needs a trip to Moab!

    How many people can say that they were in Moab offroading with snow on the ground?

    We can:thumbsup:

    Driving through Colorado in March?

    While typing "what's next", this was what I expected. While I like the look, I still can't convince myself I need to go there. (35's, not Moab)

    It’s not at all about ‘need’.
    Don’t you want to look cool?

    If you plan a trip and can tolerate my charming presence, I'll tag along. I'm not gonna count the 211 days 'til you're done working, so what's the magic date?
