    Looking forward to it! Not sure when I'm heading out... I have a meeting at least until 2pm Friday, and my gf and pup are getting back into town late Thursday night so I might want to spend the day with her before bailing again. So latest I'lll head out Saturday morning.
    I have 30,000lbs 30' strap, and two shackles to help contribute to any recovery effort.
    Trying to decide whether or not to sleep in the bed of the truck under the stars or pitch a tent... Weather seems like it should be nice a clear while we are there.

    When I roll in i'll be on channel 16 though!

    Great so if I get stuck till late at night than you can winch me out :thumbsup:.... hopefully I wont need it :D. The stars are really pretty out there
    All of mine are staying on until I sell it, hahaha so many Adventure Stories on it :D. It's up to you what you do with your truck, but once things take damage and you learn to be okay with it damn you off road quite a bit harder than you did before :thumbsup:
    True but he had crawl control. Also remember that hellish off shoot Ron @ODNAREM went on? That's what myself, @Crow52LA and the other 2wds were going down hahahaha whole different level than what that guy went up. Also not sure if @Crow52LA has crawl control :confused:

    Sweet.
    If @logcabinwc ends up coming on Saturday, I'll just head out with you and get there late Friday.
    I was gonna tag you as well. My girlfriend pointed you out. "Is that one of your Tacoma friends?" Haha
