    I thought so too.

    NM has some nice terrain, but none like what you see in those pics. Those were all taken in UT/CO.

    The first set, above the ".........." is from RT, the rest are from a recent trip to CO.

    By the way, Nate... any interest in doing the Chile Challenge this year?? I've got the time off, and as long as I can work it in, I'm there.

    Alamo is pretty much a dump, but cloudcroft and ruidoso are close by, great hiking, biking, and some wheeling.

    It's new mexico. If you're old enough to drive, you're old enough to buy guns, beer, and women at the same time in the same place.

    Had a couple minutes to work on the truck today, so I sound proofed the doors and installed some basic speakers. Eventually I'm going to build another killer setup, but I had to upgrade the factory junk in the mean time. I decided to make my own speaker mounts, probably the most high speed fab work you'll see all day...

    Also threw Tom's old wheels on...

    A couple things happened to the FJ. Somebody got to take a grinder to the interior and took care of that dildo of a shifter. Going to order a new shifter knob to try cutting the housing a different way to see if it looks better but way happier with it now.

    The grinding didn't stop there, with a good ol' cab mount chop done by same individual:

    Tom, did you weld those caps in, or was that piece solid?

    Chris (MojaveMadMan) welded them in. About the only thing I did in the whole affair was paint 'em.
