    Short and sweet. Its been done with stock trucks. From what I have heard, you can usually pick the trail to make it as crazy or mellow as you want.

    There has been bumper damage and some serious stuck ness from what I have heard.

    I have off roaded all of maybe 6 times in my life. Only been here once before. Really, not a bad place to start! You'll be fine!

    Awesome. Getting pretty excited. Decided how you're going to cut your rear quarter panels without blistering the paint?

    And I'm glad i ordered them when I did because you can no longer special order tires at SAMs. Apparently the prices don't apply to us anymore

    What do you mean? I can't order a size they don't have in stock, or I can't order a size they don't usually carry? If so that kinda sucks.

    As in you can't special order. So if it's not a size they stock you can't get them. It just changed over the weekend I guess. The people in front of me in line wanted to special order tired and the guy said they couldn't anymore and that the prices didn't apply to Alaska any longer

    Wow that's dumb. Luckily I'm still thinking of sticking with 265/75/16s. Maybe 285s but probably not. Either way I think they stock both sizes so I should be good.

    Yeah you should be set then. I was really surprised there wasn't higher prices for tires up here compared to their online store, but apparently they've caught on

    Oh what?!? They aren't honoring their online pricing anymore? I was there on Saturday and it was still $202 a tire for the duratracs I'm looking at.
