    Yeah that's what I figured, so we decided to go to the rubicon/ellis peak area instead. :D

    Thanks! Yeah they worked.

    There are some pretty views up on some side trails heading towards the north end of the rubicon! That's what I went to check out today. Found a nice, secluded lake (Richardson Lake) that everyone skipped by because they were just going for the rubicon. Made for a very pleasant lunch! If you go past the richardson lake turnoff, though, you'll go through some pretty deep water (I had one side on higher ground when I went through the deepest puddle and the opposite side slider was completely submerged... :eek:), so be prepared for that.

    Unfortunately we didn't end up getting to the peak, there was too much snow on the road for my truck on its own and we didn't feel like hiking all the way in. There were some breaks in the trees that provided some awesome views, though! Next time I'm up there (hopefully towards the end of summer time) I'll definitely check it out, though!

    Guys my brake lights aren't working and I can't figure out why. The third brake light and the running lights work just fine. I figure it is either the fuse or both the bulbs burned out at the same time. Any suggestions?

    With the combination of bulbs you mention still working - I'd start with the bulbs. You could have gone a long time with one bulb out never knowing - and then when the second one went - folks started being very interested in telling you.

    Thanks Steve. I'll look into replacing them and see if that works. I know they are a dual filament so I was curious if I would be able to replace them with leds
