    We haven't figured out shipping yet, Billy's still working on all our stuff. I don't know if at this point he can get you on the pallet or not. We've been planning this for months and to push it back any further wouldn't work. Best bet is to call him and see what his timeline looks like. If he can get another one finished before ours ships then awesome!
    He and I will probably set up another group buy around September though.

    We're you at the Kenai visitor center? I was there this morning too and our group got limits waaaaaay too quick.

    By chance do you drive a white Tacoma?

    does anybody have recommendations for the best tires here in Alaska? I won't be doing a whole lot of off roading, but I want the aggressive look.

    A really soft rubber compound will hold to the ice really well. The trade off is really soft rubber compound means much faster wear.

    I agree with the duratracs, haven't run them in winter yet but I likely will. Lots of good reviews on them, only negative ones are usually from people with the C range tires on full sized trucks... Of course the side walls will bulge and feel soft under that weight ya ninnies :)

    That'd be sweet! I'm wondering if I should bring a net down and try and dip a bit.

    Go for it. We should be at the airport Kenai center from about 8-noon/1. You can fish while I wrench on your truck. Throw in a dozen sockeye from dipping before or after that and you're set.
