    Hey people!

    Been a forum lurker for a while, finally posted up. From Trail, B.C., but love exploring evrywhere...inpromptu roadtrips are kind of our thing lol. Just a mild, steady as she goes build as it is 1) a true daily driver, and 2) her truck :D. Some basic stuff done, like 5100 lift, aal, some cosmetics, bed rack, roof top tent, custom canvas cover for rack, but more long range type stuff on the way(dual batteries, comm's, lights, storage, etc.)

    Like I said before, its a d.d. so gnarly trails are off limits, but as the equipment gets added, SHE'll feel more ok with wheeling it.

    Im a welder, just finished my B-level training, and she's a 3rd year industrial carpenter. 2 dogs, 4 yr old golden ret. and a 2 year old Siberian husky.

    look forward to picking some brains, and getting out and meeting some of you!!

    Cheers,
    Lumpy

    :rofl: !!!!! That's awesome! And much agreed on the loaded slurpees... Freshman year of college we made "real" tequila slurpees the first time it snowed... Literally set in the middle of the field behind out dining hall with cup and a bottle of tequila, scooped the snow, poured on the liquor and ate away!
