    Well maybe. But if I'm sliding on rocks I'd want to be fully armored.

    True, a leaf pack is more important. I wanted sliders because I will be going wheeling up at my cabin this summer and really don't want to mess up my 4runner. Plus my fiance needs a step and the running boards are never going back on. It was between sliders and a projector retrofit right now. I was leaning towards a retrofit as it is cheaper, but the deal was too good.

    Yeah it was definitely a good purchase on your part. Definetly can't beat 20%

    Hopefully I get a 20% off my all pro leafs. That would be sick.

    Damn all these talks about Jerry's sliders...I can't wait to get mine on but he is too busy to install them. But he promised free power coating once he gets all set up! :yay:

    The toughest part is that they are already built and just sitting there! But I know it is definitely worth the wait

    I've camped at Upper Pines with the trailer a few times. No full hook ups, but it still worked out. A few times I had to park the truck next to the trailer so that it would fit in the little parking spot, but it was never a problem.

    This was at Upper Pines 3 years ago

    I forgot what site # it was, but we got lucky in that it had a big parking spot. We were able to fit my trailer, father in law's RV, and a van (I had to re-park my truck at our other site because some people were sleeping in that van). What we've done with a big group is reserve 2-3 sites to accommodate the vehicles, then we all camp at one. So just using the other sites as parking spots.

    True thats a good idea, but this was a last minute camping trip for my fiance's spring break, I hate last minute trips, make me rush around getting time off. Getting shit done, etc, etc.

    Got on the freeway in Pollock yesterday to go pick up my daughter after track, and here's this pink jeep getting on the freeway. Did a double-take. What are the odds of 2 pink jeeps in NorCal?

    I went back and looked at the pics. It didn't have the front tow bar and it looked a lot newer than Felipe's. Plus, I let this guy pass (yes, a guy driving it too) and he took no notice of me with my NorCal sticker. So I figured it wasn't him. Although, this guy was all over the road like he was on something. But pink jeeps, what is this world coming to?
