    Dang!!! That'd be a little big for what I will use it for.

    I picked up a sleeping back and tent on Amazon last night.

    I do appreciate your offer! :fistbump:

    Told me they couldn’t hear the noise “because it was wet out” heard it backing into my garage after picking my truck up from the dealership... for the kazoo noise I had them look at they wanted $400 for weatherstriping to fix.... thanks but no thanks might take it back and have a tech ride with me when I have time.

    The clanking noise could be one of many things. Have you modified your front suspension? Had an alignment recently? Done a front brake job recently? For the rear squeaky leafs, have you had the rear leaf TSB done? How many leafs ate in your leaf pack? 3 and overload or 2 and overload? Easy fix is to power wash in between the leafs to get the dirt out, then soak them in WD-40 or your favorite brand of penetrating lube. For the Kazoo noise, I think @ChadsPride can guide you to eliminating it. Let me know if there's anything I can help you with.

    Yeah without any issues. They scraped all the park roads last year so they're super easy to navigate. Your tires may just get a little dusty though ;).

    We'll be on CB Channel 4. Otherwise I'll give you my number for when you get out there.

    To clarify, this is talking about next weekend (22-25th), not tomorrow. However you'll be able to find us the same way tomorrow.

    If you do want to camp this weekend (sounds you do), Mark (@trail_or_sail on IG) has put together a camping group at Area 51. It should be super chill and family friendly. Check him out on IG for more details.

    That's the group I plan to meet up with, for the day, after the FOD meet. Kind of wish I could camp out this weekend too!
