    And yet you are still there?

    Going to be a hot one this year, the good news is all the snowbirds will be out of here soon before they start dying.

    Awesome photographs! Very well put together video! I want to take my boys out there this year. How long were you guys out there to see all that you did in the video? Also how are those ST pros doing? I'm torn between those and ST Maxx. Thanks for any and all info. Your truck is sweet! Keep sharing the awesome pics!

    would rather be in the west...many reasons

    we could be fine out here, but we'd just rather be out there..so we're taking advantage of a window to move back

    ^

    really liking the pros..great overall tire, improvement over the STT overall...check out the Winter Issue of TCT Magazine for my initial thoughts on the Pros, http://tctmagazine.net/winter-2016/winter-2016-big-bend-baja-white-rim-more

    depends on what you need out of your tires to choose between the Maxx and Pro...

    i know @lotsoftoys is running the ST Maxx on his 1st gen...he does a lot of wheeling with them and used to DD on them as well..

    all of the pics from my "stumbling on a blunder" album were with the sony... i also think most, if not all are from the sony on the "frontier town" album

    i really like my 60D, so i'm not sure yet how it'll fit in the rotation..but i'm going to try it out

    might end up having that be kayla's camera

    which means our rebel t1i would be up for sale...

    nice, I'll have to check them out, I'm keeping my Nikon D300, but just want something that's a little more compact, and shoots video. I like the fact that the sony was full frame and can transfer wirelessly.
