NE area wheeling trip plans

That he is, isn't afraid to try much that's for sure.

Haha yup the go around on the left in the really muddy area about 500' from the Row hill climb. Almost broke the driver's mirror off in there, thankfully there was enough angle that it folded in instead of breaking

 

Watching this thread, thinking of making the trip from NY and joining you guys. I'm all stock except for Falken Wildpeaks for tires. Also have an air compressor that I can run off the outlet in my bed to air up afterwards. Don't have much else in terms of gear / armor. Looking to armor up over the winter when the Black Friday sales roll around. Looking to get out with some guys who have some experience, there's little over here in NY. Any chance I could tag along? Think I'd be okay gear / armor wise?

I'll know for sure if I can get a deer in the next two weekends. All out of venison from last years three deer and would feel better taking time off from hunting if I had a deer down. As a hunter public land is public land, we own it, and we can recreate on it as we choose.

 

have you tested to make sure the air compressor works in the bed outlet? I can never seem to power anything i want to from it. The air compressor I use just alligator clips to the battery terminals-works well.

 

mine works in the bed outlet

 

which one u got, I need/want a new one

i don't do any air tools etc though. just for tires and the lift

 

I think the most useful thing I've used mine for was a blender. I had bought a tiny shop vac and the outlet can't even power that.

 

I'm completely stock too, and am planning on joining up (assuming plans don't fall through due to the hunting issue). I have a small craftsman air compressor that hooks up into the cig lighter (just in case inverter cant keep up).

 

Cool, that's all I used mine for, airing up after wheelin'

Mmmmmmm Off-Road Pina Coladas

 

Exactly.

 

I don't remember seeing this when I bought my Kobalt inflator. It does the job, but it's slow af.

 

I use my bed outlet to keep food in the crockpot warm on the way to relatives houses on holidays.

 

i got it end of last year. it's almost too heavy for me to put in the truck hahaha

 

Inverters in our trucks are only rated for 400 watts (roughly 3.33 amps @ 120v). Im surprised Kobalt makes a compressor small enough to be run off that. I run a

$91 Viair 88P Portable Compressor Kit (12V, 120 Psi, Forup to 33" Tires)

Viair 88P for now. Lightweight which is nice. And 12V so just pop the hood to hook up the alligator clips and you're all set.

 

i know nothing about this stuff. i just plugged in one day to see if it worked haha

 

My first instinct was margaritas! but I remembered that I prefer them on the rocks.

 

can i request a mudslide before the rocky hill climb?

 

Actually, that's exactly what it was. At the car show I used to go to every year, there was a guy who would make margaritas for everyone.

 

I agree
WHEEL ON DUDES !

 

What's holding you back now??

Not true... I don't have a driveshaft skid... (if they make those). Right @ecgreen ?

I'll give you that - only reason I didn't go that line was because I didn't want to rip the roof top tent off...

You'll be fine - just take it easy, pick your lines and you'll be good. Besides the rocky hill which is an optional section, the only thing you might knick on is a few loose rocks.
