    I think I'll be able to follow splayed out buck tracks in the fresh snow tomorrow.

    Big difference between the Icons and the Fox/Kings though; digressive valving versus progressive.

    and again for someone who is asking what to get, I would bet money in a blind test they wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the two. Pick one they think feels better sure..but go oooo that's definitely a king cause of progressive valving....not happening.

    Ill forever stand by my stance of just buy whatever is the best deal and youll be more than happy. IE if icon is better deal..buy icon. If kings are..buy kings.

    Saw all the snow posts on the interwebs when I got up this morning. Made sure I loaded up all my fuel cans, tow/winch gear, recovery tracks, and extra warm layers as well as changed all auxiliary lighting to amber lenses and aired down to 4 psi before I started the treacherous 5 mile commute to work. Needless to say I fit in quite well this morning with all the other well prepared folks on the road.

    Should be a goodish time. I don't get to do as much off road as I would like when it's the whole family.

    Going up to grab a beer from Dru Bru at Snoqualmie pass. And probably find somewhere to fuck off. Anyone else going to be on a snow adventure that way?

    Mercedes SLK drove into me. Would you get it fixed or try and bang it out and put the payout towards suspension / front plate bumper? It bugs me that its there but at the same time I'm kinda thinking that I could get that quarter panel replaced later on if I can't live with it anymore. I don't think I can cover up the whole thing with a Safari snorkel and not sure how flat it would sit....that was my other thought.

    Stoopid mercedes...


    That crease isn't something a mere mortal can bang out and make look good. $241 plus shipping and paint for a factory replacement. Or $175 per side for fiberglass that will cover the +2 long travel you're gonna do. Hint. Hint. If it were mine I'd call around to a bunch of upullit yards and find one regardless of color, then either derp, rhino, or wrap it.
