    Hmm, I would suggest something but I've never wheeled with 2wd so I'm unsure of the capabilities. Traildamage.com is a good site to check out and look for trails. they have a good rating system for difficulty and usually lots of pictures

    Yeah nobody will ever pay that lol.

    And on another note, my CB radio mic decided to disintegrate even more. Took it to a CB guy in Denver and told him a wire broke and he was like "well actually two broke" and then suddenly a third wire broke. :facepalm:

    But it's currently getting boosted up and will get the system checked. So I will no longer be the loser with a non working CB :D

    Well then. Just had a lightning bolt strike about 150 feet from the truck going down the highway. About the closet I've come to crapping myself I think.

    Haha maybe a little :anonymous:


    Got it done by a place Ebbs recommended.

    Radio Service Center
    918 South Sheridan BLVD
    Denver, CO 80226
    303-922-8107


    Got the CB boosted, was running at 3 watts and he bumped it up to like 15 watts. Don't know what he did but took him 2 hours to do it lol. He also checked my antennae. I had to buy a new mic as well since mine died but he said this one was a really good mic, better than the one it came with. Really old dude but nice guy. The system check and boosting was about $45 and my mic was about $24, so about $71 total.

    I still need to hook it back up as we had to cut a wire and test it but it should be working loads better than before.
