    We hope it can be an annual thing. I will probably go Alpine Loop and southern Colorado next trip though.

    I was telling my wife about it and she's all for a trip like this. just have to get everything I need/ truck built the way I want. possibly next year I could be ready but more likely 2019. taking two kids so I would have to plan around spring break. funny, I get this truck and it has me planning trips 2 years out.

    It's addicting...I KNOW!

    Ya know the more people I talk to about Moab and building the truck I continue to hear you can range from stock to built anyone can go out there and still have fun. They say most trails can be done stock or with mild lift. I have to remind myself of that so I don't go drop 5k right before we leave on stuff I think I need. When in reality I don't, or it can wait.

    Just to make sure there is no confusion, I understand the 1 April date for get together at Brian's or my house for trip discussion is out. We will get together on a weekday yet to be decided. Mod day is 15 Apr at Brian's with focus on electrical. Up to meeting on a weekday earlier than that if we can get enough people together. I will be gone all next week so first week of April is best for me. Again, the earlier the better so we have time to resolve any issues.

    you're right it does. southern slang can get you sometimes.


    when I was working at CVS I had a guy call to get his prescription said "I'll come get it after supper" *hangs up*. We are open till 8pm so I'm thinking ok cool if I get it ready by 1pm I'm guaranteed to have it done even before supper. Sonofabitch shows up at 11am and gets mad it isn't ready. WTF when is 11am AFTER SUPPER?
