Alaska BS thread

I just got back. I went back up into the hills. Snow is just super dry like fine sand. Watched four different rigs get stuck.

First a Chevy, then a Ford went to tow him out (using my strap) and ended up getting himself stuck. Then a 4runner pulled the ford out but in the process tied a damn knot in my snatch strap. They ended up cutting it and paying me for it which was nice.

I should have just gone over to help so that wouldn't have happened, but oh well. Neither had recovery points so they tied the strap together instead of asking to borrow my receiver hitch recovery point. Ohhhh well.

All in all it was a good day of shooting.

 

Hey Ben I'll have to pass this time around the Pelfreybilt pallet, it's tempting though lol, but I think I'm gonna get my bed squared away first with an RTT and such, whenever you guys have another pallet through CVT I'll probably jump on it

 

What are you gonna put it on?

 

I'm gonna get the bed bars from either All Pro or Relentless Fab, they're not too expensive, I think like $250 for 3 bars, they just mount into the bed rails, and they only sit 8" high so the tent will sit about flush with the roof

@benbacher

Since pelfreybilt is also a dealer for CVT would it be possible for me to throw a CVT into that pallet?

 

Pelfreybilt pallet coming up and 10% off sale going now. Get em while theyre hot!

 

Grrrrrrrr

 

Since they're a CVT dealer could I get one on the pallet?

 

Where you headed?

 

I have a cvt pallet coming up sooner, two tents on it so far. One is my mt mckinley summit series and the other a shasta summit. The pelfrey pallet is a few months out, but the sale is going until the end of the month, you'll secure the place now and the price and they'll ship after theyre built.

 

Put me on that CVT pallet for a MT. Bachelor with the Star Gazer, how much longer is it on for? I can swing by Monday and put cash down

 

Why the bachelor?

 

Good price point, and its a 2+ man so it won't be too much of a tight fit when sleeping inside, also the general size overall

 

I'd highly recommend the shasta, its more bucks, but its the best seller up here. That overhang in the annex is a huge factor for many things. I'll run you through it monday when you swing by. I've honestly never sold a bachelor up here.

 

I'll definitely look into it! And sounds good man, after the CVT pallet sales are all done how long does it usually take until you guys get em in?

 

I have the shasta setup

 

Off to Virginia

 

Right now we're just waiting on the summit series to arrive, once they hit (probably the end of this month) it'll be a couple weeks. I hope to have mine mounted before the sportsman show. Also, Bobby from CVT is coming up for that!

 

@benbacher Got permission to go ahead with the SAS! I'll have to talk to you Monday.

 

Dang, sounds like a fun day! Nothing like multiple stocks to add insult to injury. That's pretty sweet they paid you for it.

 

Yeah it was definitely an entertaining day haha.

My roommate was supposed to bring out his traction ramps but forgot. Those would have worked wonders for everyone that was stuck. Except the chevy. He was just a dumb ass that needed a tow truck.
