    Yeah, BFE is free and that's definitely where the party will be at. There are a few of us that want to run white rim which is a 77 mile trail. It's usually not done in a single day and they have spots out in the back country that you can reserve. So we're trying to get a couple campsites so we can run that trail as an overnighter.

    Ah I see. There are a lot of plastic manufacturers (ie Rubbermaid) in AZ. So if it is what I am thinking then I could see why he is there.

    It's looking like there's a lot of interest in this trail this year after the few trucks that got to go last year reported it to be a sweet trip. If we can get two permits for potato bottom, then that would mean 6 trucks could go. I think there's already more than 6 that want to go, haha. The other Ben (Btnewman) was working on getting in touch with the Moab BLM office to see about reserving the permits.

    Lol. I don't design the packs. That's left up to marketing which could be a really bad thing.

    I do engineering and project management for beverage companies, working for a small company that provides this as a contractor. We like to think of ourselves as just an extension of their engineering group. Mainly working for the top competitors for soda and water but have done some work with brewery's as well.

    Currently working on a project in AZ for the red guys putting in a hotfill line (powerade).

    Hey guys/gals, got a quick question. My Tundra is stock, not looking for any high speed type terrain. But, are there any lower/mid speed type trails that I could take a stock Tundra on? I live in the Denver area, wouldn't mind a early morning to early evening type trip.

    Definitely would like to minimize risk as well, don't need to be trying to act like a rock crawler.

    What would you all recommend?

    If you guys are answering my question.... Just want to see if its something I should start investing significant funds into. I will not be lifting the truck unless I plan on actually getting off the highway/city driving.
