    I'll bet with you it will be 9:30 once you get gas, stop by starbucks to bring something home for the GF, etc.:D But I'll be ready to leave my house at 9 just in case.

    Is your dad going to drive down or ride with you? It should take me 30 minutes from the time I leave my house to be at 65 Hartselle exit or 1 hour to get to the Cullman Rest stop.

    What do you have for a tow strap? I think I may need to try to find one today. Any ideas of somewhere local to get a decent strap?

    Also, will you be leaving from your house or his?

    I have a generic 20 or 30 ft with metal hooks. I gotta have this cause I don't have tow hooks atm and I gotta use holes in the frame haha.

    Tractor supply has a good selection.

    and Yeah, I live like 3 miles off 65 so I'll probably leave from my place. No point in driving all the way into south huntsville just to turn around and spend 30 minutes on 36. Gonna warn you though, I probably won't go much over 65-70. Death Wobbles aint no joke!

    In a caravan, 65-70 is fine.

    So for those of us who can't go wheeling due to family commitments or otherwise busy weekends, I'll throw this out there.

    I'm meeting some Land Cruiser folks over at O'Henry's Coffee in Brookwood Village at 8:30 AM tomorrow morning just to have a cup o'joe and talk about Toyotas.

    EDIT
    Son of a bitch... now I can't make it to this either. Kid duties tomorrow AM. Justin, <clinton voice> I feel your pain. </clinton voice>.

    What would be awesome would be a meet at that park in auburn. I say that because it's a central location that north, central and south Alabama guys could attend.
