    Thanks, I wanted to Lone Star one which had a little bar that went over the grill, but in hindsight, I'm glad I didn't get it because it would have limited where I could put the light bar.

    locker to drift? i'd get waaaaay too much traction between that, my tires and the fact that this road is meant to have traction in the wet weather.

    Perfect time of year to go to all these parks. Kids are back in school and not too many tourists around, and the weather is still pretty good in the west.

    Have you enjoyed some good food on your journey ?
    I always like checking grub in new places.
