JeepAndrew's AZ Trail Runs/Campouts

That sucks but im glad that everyones ok

 

Will stock tires be fine for the back way?

 

Yes. Unless you are me

 

Okay just making sure lol

 

Yeah its a graded dirt road all the way with 3 water crossings into camp

 

I got everything for the 4x4 trip except sliders and a CB. .. trying to come up with funds asap. Me and my buddy may try to weld up sliders On our on to save money

 

Me too!!

Can I touch it?

 

You know you dont have to ask

 

This time we are going the whole route through. Entering rug road, and then eating pizza in Wilcox.
There will be footage from two go pro cameras and stills for the group
We will be meeting at Andrews at 07:00 on the 21st.
I will be bringing dogs, beans and chips to be cooked on the trail for lunch.
The trail may not have changes much, but with the massive summer storms and winter rains combined we will not know until the prerun. I would like for at least one Tacoma to make the trip with us, so we can see how it will be for the rest of the trucks.
Any takers?

 

I would, but I got prerunner problems.

 

Id love to but ima call it tentative at this point

 

Feb 21st

 

I demand that you go Matt. You didn't get to go to the mine with Andrew and I during the Dragoons.
You need Bro time and Epicness!!!!
DO IT!!!!!!!!!

 

I agree sir but saturday was supposed to be rear suspension day. Im still up in the air about it but ill probably end up coming. I miss rug road and my NahBitchOffRoad brothers!

 

You will have more than a month to do the upgrade
Just saying

 

True story

 

I'd go on this prerun as well buuuut I have already slayed these tires enough since I got em Andrew we'll just have to do the tire gate planning the next weekend, need to find out if we're getting paid or going into furlough again.....

 

^that stinks!!^ good luck!

 

Unfortunately, I have to relinquish my spot fellas. Some plans came up with the girlfriend and her family on this date that trumps wheeling. Consider me back out. Sorry :\

Hoping to get in on one of these in the future to meet everybody. Have fun!
