    Nick have you had a chance to wheel with the new suspension? How are the 285s treating you?

    So far everything is great. Wheeled about 45 minutes on the Niagra rim trail. Hit some snow and bumpy terrain. I kept it in two wheel drive for a awhile and it did great in some thick mud and inclines. I'll be testing it some more this weekend. Hopefully the wife gets some good photos. Did you move yet?

    Thanks. I'm working hard on it. More to come. Working on a gas and water setup. Getting extended brake lines. And fiberglass fenders.

    Just on the front. The fenders will be a while. I just spent a bunch of money on a matching rim and tire for a spare and the gas cans.

    I think I need a shelf for a storage box above or below the gas and water cans.

    What kind of gas cans did you get? I've been looking into picking up a 2 gallon can or so.

    So as some of you know I moved and went from 20 minutes a day in the car to over 2 hours. I was putting well over 3,000 a month on the truck. I just bought my truck but after all the mods 14 mpg in traffic and filling up twice a week just didnt add up. I also hate put highway miles on an offroad rig. I never though I would own a boring white 4 door sedan but if it means I can keep my truck I will drive anything. I picked this ford focus up with 35,000 miles, leather, sync (entune), and power everthing for $14,000.

    It seems like the more you build your rig the worse it does at everthing but offroad, BUT ITS WORTH IT...

    No the wife has forbidden it. The reason I had to buy this thing was because I modded the truck to death. I will get the windows tinted and a sound system and sub put in soon though.
