    I'm sitting this one out also but you have to go next time!! You like to come prepared with gps and everything and you're a pretty damn good spotter! Trust me.. We'll need it next time! I don't want to hurt my rig! BUT... I plan on putting it through some pretty rough stuff! I'll post pictures of this weekend also!

    BTW.. Paul.. I'm most likely not gonna waste the money putting tires I don't want on those wheels, SO that's why its good to have friends in a small town.. LOL! The guy that owns space age used to GIVE me tires to save him money. I used to put those on my old F100.. LOL! Most of the time they won't be a matching set but that's why he gives them away. Most people want a matching set and if he has one with 50% tread and three with 20% - 30% he'll just toss them all cause he can just save that one. So I save him money by taking tires off his hand so he doesn't have to pay for the salvage fee per tire.. LOL! I'll see what I can find for cheap though..

    Ok, so let's get either choccolocco or Skyway planned for the next couple weeks. I know some of the guys know Skyway fairly well so my vote is for that first. I kinda wanna wait for my bumpers before choccolocco haha

    i was told that even the "easy" trails at chocc pretty much require skids unless you like buying parts. got a buddy with a fully built zuke and fully built wrangler that hits choc, stoney, and grey rock on a reg basis. he advised me STRONGLY to wait till my skids come in. so that is what im gonna do, then i plan on trying my luck, hopefully wont be pushing it though.

    yep, what we hit last time started right around sylacauge and dumped us out in right around lincoln.
    also if we hit skyway next weekend im thinking about bringing my wife. it would be a nice trail to take for a ride without freaking her out and maybe get her interested in offroading so i can go back to buying stuff for the truck. maybe others would bring their sig. others too???
