    Most of the ice is off the trees now. I think I'll head there within the next few days to see how it made out...

    It's hard to stay warm when the high is -8! :eek: lol

    · Aftermarket fog lights · TracRac G2 with extra tie down points · Bilstein 5100’s on the front at 1.75” · Scangauge · Rubber bed mat · Relentless tailgate reinforcement · Window rain deflectors · Back seat dog bench. I got tired of him drooling on the dash, nose printing on the windows and getting in the way of the side mirror. He farts a lot too but the bench won’t help with that. · 265/75-R16 Goodyear DuraTrac’s on Pro Comp 7089 wheels. A couple of the wheels took a lot of weights but they’re smooth all the way to >85 mph and then a little vibration starts. · I removed the back seat headrests. · I disconnected the key chime. · I added a wiper switch with the intermittent option. · A subtle Steal Your Face stencil · Removed badges
    First the ice comes down from the sky. Now it's coming up from the rivers. I've read about many ice jams in the Northeast today. I even got blocked by a little one on the road out of camp. The water wasn't deep but after the sand washed off an ice covered dirt road I wasn't going to chance it. I had no recovery gear, no cell signal and the water could rise at any time. 15 mile detour. Glen Creek Rd. Warren Co. NY

    Yesterday was a disaster in central VT. I was glad I have a Tacoma. The only traction I had was by driving in the ditch.
