    It was pretty fun! We went up and played around on some mountain access roads then we mounted the RTT on Jakes rig at which tine Jake pointed out a soft topper for sale. We went and checked it out and I ended up buying it.

    Oh yeah. Jake joined me on the trip to MT. We stopped at a rest area called indian john hill to camp out for the night. We woke up to 25 degrees at 8 am...

    ill post more later. I have some pics and videos to upload.

    Lol im pretty close to my original plan but there have been a few bye days where I did just that-

    cruise and explore (and sometimes be stuck in a toyota service bay for 5 hours). I really had no plans for anything in ND.

    Hellz yah!

    And I am falling woefully behind on uploading pics and videos but this bent frame issue has me a bit frayed. Ill be at my next spot for a few days with reliable interwebs and will get completely caught up over the time there as well as get into some new shenanigans. This I promise.
