    Nice! You could just do like me with my sleeping platform, and rebuild it every year. :rofl:

    Your MT? I see it's the fast one (Hi-Viz). I have 31k on mine.

    Sweet...buddy and I are heading to N GA. in a few weeks. Going to hit the Barber Museum while we're down there. Had my F4i on the Dragon and Cherohala. Would love to go there again.

    My brother wanted to do it, we took a to week off and explored, beautiful area. I wouldn't go just for the dragon but the roads are awesome over there. I got a week off mid October still deciding where I want to go, explored the Ozarks last year solo and it was amazing! Have fun on your trip!

    Well I decided that a new daily driver was in order after I changed jobs and no longer had my middle manager Camry company car.

    I drove the first gen most of summer but an exo’d truggy is far from the ideal DD. Also not a great road tripper on weekend camping trips or non hardcore wheeling trips. The other truck is a 6.7 dually F350 that rides like ass empty, has emissions that don’t do great on short commutes, and I’d like to keep as many non-towing miles off it as possible.

    So enter second gen shitbox. I didn’t even have the title signed for 24 hours before I hit Harlan on the way home from the Bristol night race with my cousin riding shotgun. The 770 mile drive home with the cruise set at 80 was lovely afterwards too.

    It's an 11 with 117k on it. 4.0/auto, 4.88's, ARB front, Harrop rear locker, tuned fox 2.5's with DSC on all four corners, FJC manual tcase/ADD tube. Exterior is pretty beat but the interior is nice. 37’s and Method beadlocks. Plan is to put it on 35’s and generally clean it up. Probably going to find a new bed, order new fenders and pull a few dents in the doors. Should make for a nice DD/non-hardcore wheeler that’ll be perfect for camping trips around the SW part of the state that we really like to do

    I’d add that if anyone wants the 37’s or the safari snorkel, they are available. Located near Rockford IL but I’m in Madison regularly. I also have some BAMF LCA skids if anyone wants them too

    Get the Coyza tune, based off of Yotawerx. Best there is for MT (need to upgrade my ancient tune lol).

    You'll also want to do the adm.

    As a point of clarification, I am the original creator of Coyoza prior to selling the brand to CVC, and so YotaWerx is the successor (not to mention a significant difference/advancement).

    Just for the sake of accuracy where that timeline is concerned.
