    Love that area, been going up there for many years, but I couldn't get the family to go camping back there due to the last time we were struck by lightning. Had to take my oldest to the ER to check her out, also did over $3500 in electrical damage to my wife's car. The only way i would get anyone up there is to stay with friends or a hotel:(

    I was looking at the 88p or 300p, $62 vs $112. I'm going to be running 255/75 17 so which do you think would be ok? if I can get by with the $60 that would be great but I don't want to be stuck airing up for 30 minutes.

    She was, the doc said she was hit by a "splash" had what is called "ferning", I'm assuming the car took the main hit.

    Finally put my finger on why I don't like any of the 3rd gen bumpers, plus found one I like!!

    The 2nd gen bumpers are almost straight across the bottom of the grill or close. Most of the 3rd gen bumpers have the grill dip down into the bumper and there is a couple inches on past the bottom of the grill on each side. Which make it look like a big nose or something to me. SOS is pretty close to straight across like the 2nd gens!!:yay:
