    No shame here. I'm happy as a clam. I've got a truck I enjoy, and I share my name with a guy that looks to have a sweet truck. There's no shame in that, even though it's a second gen :duel:

    hey guys, i'm thinking of taking my wife wheelin' a bit in her jeep and was wondering where some easier, relatively close to eagle river locations are. She hasn't gotten to break her new jeep in yet, so i thought it might be something fun to do on our day off. maybe somewhere with a nice view? trying to think of something cute for our anniversary =D

    Oh man. I haven't been to petersville but I really want to check it out sometime. Hatchers is just an awesome drive. I did it last weekend from willow to Palmer. Going up arch angel road is really cool too. Just uh, don't drive in the small mud hole at the beginning of arch angle road. I hear you can get stuck in it... :anonymous:
