    If I read right, you have a 4x4 right? I suggest Tray Mountain near Helen, Springer Mountain near Dahlonega, and/or Coopers Creek near Suches. There is another place that I ride thru that has a real nice campground but I cant think of the name of the area. They are all very doable (in my opinion) in a stock 4x4 Tacoma. I usually ride them in my dual sport motorcycle but if you take it easy and dont go after some torrential rains you should be fine. Springer Mountain has some cool campsites not in a campground right next to a nice river. Coopers Creek has a nice camp ground. Tray Mountain has odd and end places to camp...not as goos as the other places but it is more secluded.

    Let me know if you need more direction or have any other questions, Ill do my best to give you direction to the places.

    It's a combo of cigs and weed. The weed smell is already almost gone but it still smells like cigs.
    The only stuff I had on me to spray in there was some scent away that's made to spray on your clothes when you go hunting

    I didn't see where you had answered if you did, but did they find the guy(s) that stole it?

    My mother in law bought a '06 Nissan Morano that someone has smoked in and we got the smell out by steam cleaning it and then putting a bunch of baking soda boxes in it for a few days

    Where do y'all get your brakes serviced? I'm in need of getting the fronts turned and new pads, as well as new pads for the rear. I heard Just Brakes or someone else was doing all four for $99. Anyone know any other places doing stuff like this? I travel to Atl twice a week, so anywhere from Butts Co. to downtown Atl. is doable. I'm not going to Blue Ridge to save $20 on a brake job lol

    Best thing is to do it yourself. You can get way nicer brakes off the Internet and put them on yourself and save $$$ while getting better, longer lasting brakes

    Do not go to just brakes. It is a scam.

    Just cause they're the cheapest doesn't mean they are the best. They get customers in with the cheap service then say all you vehicle has all sorts of problems and charge you a ton to fix it. If you take your vehicle to another reputable shop 9 times out if 10 those "problems" won't be an actual problems. I took my silverado to the ins in stockbridge I was quoted 1800 in break work. Took it elsewhere and no issue with breaks at all. Looked online and just breaks as a whole is notorious for doing this. I will never go back to any just breaks. Any company that allows this nationwide does not deserve my business.

    I got mine done at pep boys maybe 6-9 months ago. I think I was OTD at ~$140

    Thanks. Pep Boys is closer, so I'll probably stick with them.
