    6. Since there's 2 of every make I am thinking they may eliminate 1 of each make. But hell an FJ40 still looks just like the Jeeps, so if they want diversity I'm in :D

    Yeah, definitely a good chance for sure. They always have a good mix of rigs, so hopefully it works out. Plus, I think they like having the newer, heavily modified stuff, that's not a jeep. They had a brand new ford last year. See how she goes I guess.

    When do they announce it?

    It is, but its a shorter wait than after I applied initially. But knowing I made the first cut is like winning in and of itself!

    I shit bagged the Scouts. Basically stock rigs. I had a Scout, I love scouts but these are not UA material, pretty tame rigs. Their spam posts piss me off.

    Whatever floats your boat, lol.

    I am trying to keep things positive as I may be wheeling with these guys, but I agree most of these trucks don't appear to have near the work put into them that mine does. At least not driveline upgrades.

    Dana44's aren't going to take much abuse over the course of a week on the trails, unless they aren't very hardcore trails or they run small tires. Me...I want to run 40's :D

    Maybe I overdid it with the mods this time around :eek:

    Some have 14B rears matched with a D44 front. Seems out of balance IMO.
