    You going to regear? I thought you had stock hearing with that mpg.

    Nope. It's regeared. I was getting similar mileage with stock gearing and 35's.

    My truck has never been good at gas mileage. Well I have never been good at gas mileage. According to the eco app my all time best gas mileage was 15.3. That was probably with 285's since those went on day three or so.

    Here's a different and short review. I'm waiting for some product to test so I have nothing to do but stand here.

    I've always hated those tall foldout camping chairs. The ones that go into the cylinder shaped bag. They are always hard to get back in the bag and take up a lot of room.

    I had my rei dividend to spend so why not go look at some chairs.

    Well I came across Helios brand which was way to expensive. Was about to leave and saw rei has a house brand that looks the same.

    Here are some pics. It's really light around 2 pounds. Super easy to setup. Has tent like poles that all snap together. Very comfortable. It's missing arm rests and a cup holder. But it does have a cell phone pocket. Or whatever you want to put in there.

    Rei flexlite macro chair. Kind of expensive still at 99 each but it was worth it to me. Like I said...I hate that other style chair.

    Nope. I cycled the rear when I did the extra leaf. They are fine there. I know they aren't going to fit in the front. :D

    I was worried you might say that...so if you do some high speed mobbing, are your fenders gonna grenade?

    A lot if cutting needs to be done for sure. Especially since I rub the top of the fender well when stuffed with 35s

    Oh they clear the fenders. It's everything else they'll hit.

    I won't be mobbing anytime soon anyway. Unless I start liking this suspension again it won't really see anything that'll matter much.

    Lesson ive learned with long travel. Only works on whoops at sand dunes. Sucks for anything else. Oh also looks cool.

    Damn man...that's a bummer that due to your suspension design you are forced to be a maller! I made that a personal choice even though my set up can handle more.
