That signal comes from your fish antenna no?

In other news, let's invite him to the trail

 

I wanted to get an scx-10, then I got my tacoma.

The full size rig has become my favorite toy. Everytime I think about the R/C's, I find something else I want for the taco.

 

Yeah same haha thats why mine sit for years before i decide to buy the $15 part it needed just to break it again after a couple beers in the garage

 

Okay, T - 16 hours before the cross Canada trip to the West.

What's there to see? Anyone got any tips? I got 5 days to explore.

So far the list is:

Lake Superior Park
Kakabeka Falls
...

 

Ya, take the route through the US. Cheaper gas. Mackinac bridge...

 

Im headed out there mid june with the gf, you’ll have to find some good spots to go wheelin and show me lol

You are moving west too?

 

No just road trip for 2 weeks, plan is to go to jasper then head south to montana with a bunch of back roads hopefully then home

Mostly a hiking trip but i want to try n sneak some wheeling in

 

Nice, I'll see what I can find for wheeling there, should be plenty of trails.
If you are going to Montana, stop by Bozeman, and you may find my maxtrax boards in the woods, snow should melt by that time

 

You could go off-road, or more likely off highway the whole distance on the Trans Canada Adventure Trail.

Edit. 3 days to get there and 2 to explore?

 

Im excited for all the service roads out there.
Were trying our best to avoid the crowds. last time we were out in banff we hit all the tourist spots and it was way too crowded for us.

 

Got a whole plethora of places to visit by Banff if youre heading that way just shoot me a PM.

Goodby commrade, thanks for bolstering up this Ontario group

 

I got the gpx file, will see if anything aligns with my route.

IDK, I can cross it in 2 days, but figured driving each day 7-8 hours and hike/explore for the rest of the day.

Jasper is the way to go, although getting busy now too I've heard. Better yet, let's do Dempster hwy, my penis-rated nokians up to the task after US trip, still 40% left! lol

 

Yeah we havent done it yet and it was on the to-do list
Speaking of, i need 2 new tires. My rears are weather cracking and i want to jump to 35’s but i cant afford re-gear before the trip
Im so conflicted

 

I drove out to Yellowstone in 1997. We visited The Badlands in South Dakota along the way out which were pretty spectacular. I had my started motor fail in a rundown, one road town just west of there where the gas station and "park" that look more like a crime scene, were on one side of the road and a biker bar right out of Mad Max on the other side. That was in my Jeep. I also cracked my oil pan around there. Yellowstone was beautiful but no wheeling, only a couple fire roads. Wish I had headed south to Canyonlands but ran out of time. We only had 2 weeks and spent a week in Yellowstone. Came back on the Trans Canada. Round trip was a little over 8,000km.

 

Best wishes and drive safe.

 

And of course the spending does not stop

Someone local selling brand new OME 886's, just what I need

*Edit*


Looks like I should be selling my Mobtown hidden 2" hitch receiver, shoot me a private message if anyone is interested in this item.

 

You could be spending money on broken drill bits like me installing sliders. I suspect the steel may be heat treated to a higher strength on 3rd gen frames.
