    ^^^ This guy is a life saver. Bro-lean forgiven.. for now :D
    We were 2/3 of the way through the trail when Ashley hit something (what exactly she hit is still up for discussion) with the passenger tire hard enough that the spindle was bent inwards and back, pushing the tire into the UCA. Obviously that brought the convoy to a standstill. After looking at it and doing some brainstorming we took a wheel spacer off of Mike's truck and put it behind the tire on that side which freed up the tire so we could get it to camp. She was able to drive it out to the south through Willcox and back to my place to replace it. Thanks to Stefen for meeting us in Benson with one of his old spindles!
    Yes there was, We had a busted rig we had to leave on the trail, Ashley's bent spindle, Snowtank dented his bumper and pinched his exhaust pipe nearly closed, Brian bent his driver side step, I broke a trans mount and one of my engine mounts and maybe a front axleshaft, not sure yet. It was a rough run, rougher than I was expecting...

    Rug Road has changed drastically since I ran it last July. There are sections of the trail that have changed so much (for the worse) that they are now a 4/5 instead of the 3-3.5/5 rating like some websites have claimed. When I ran it in July I thought the 3/5 was legit for the bad parts of the trail, with the rest being a 2 or so. Anyone who wants to run this in the near future, be warned. Several large washouts have appeared on the trail and others that were there are now massive. Brush along the trail has gotten tighter and some sections are even starting to overgrow.

    I think I owe an apology to everybody that had any bad luck today or yesterday on this run. I feel really bad for all that happened and hope that everybody had a good time at least.

    Check IG1 fuse under the dash(#32) blew. It is for the Back-up lights, air conditioning system, passenger airbag manual on-off switch, and SHIFT LOCK SYSTEM
