    Based on what's available looks like roughly 36 tents can fit in all campsites, soooo who's sharing? also I assume people with RTTs wouldn't count

    We should probably consolidate trucks and maybe leave some up at the parking lot to accommodate more tents/people. We can have some trucks load up supplies from parked trucks down to the campsites.

    Swampers are bias ply tires. They have a good bit of vibration at the best of times, especially after the truck has been sitting over night. They get flat spots after sitting for a while and will be pretty rough until they heat up and the flat spots go away. This can take a few miles on a lighter vehicle. They are also hard to balance perfectly due to the size and depth of the tread. It's just something you have to be aware of and accept in return for the significant traction gains they provide and on a trail rig, on road performance is secondary at best. Of course, if your Swampers were really old they might have had some integrity issues causing them to ride rough as well. They can dry rot and seperate just like any other tire.

    I drink a little, depends on how the beer is tasting that particular night, but I also tend to stay up late being nocturnal by nature. I'm pretty sure I snore like a bow saw as well. :D As long as I have a spot with someone with a TRD OR or has an inverter so I can inflate my air matress, I'm good.



    :pout:

    It'll keep my trailer company if I manage to make it. ;)

    BTW, isn't there camping in the parking lot as well? I wouldn't mind that if need be.

    Yep. We can camp in the parking lot. Being near a bathroom and kitchen isn't so bad. Lol.

    I'm debating bringing pulled pork. I have three butts in the freezer right now. I don't know if I like y'all THAT much to precook that much meat beforehand. Lol. :p
