    But what if they did make a trail edition? That would be cool

    I say we need an up to date trail condition by the end of this season and see what they fixed. Like I have said I have heard they are hauling in a bunch of road filler ,are moving a bunch of big boulders, and doing tractor grading work.

    The harder areas may end up still being there, but I bet you there will be some really nice by-pass roads. It almost sounded like they were rebuilding the road to be near what it originally was before eroding and "enthusiasts" pushing big boulders into the road.

    One can never have too many light bars.
    True Story: A Yukon Denali made it to the top of Mt. McKinley. Not a regular Yukon though that got stuck halfway up the trail.

    This is a funny old thread. Figured I'd revive it with this:

    I ran Loon Lake to Spider Lake and back with a buddy in his jeep on 35's (I know, I know...). My taco doesn't yet have skids or bumpers, so didn't want to risk it in mine. Next summer, though...

    Anyhoo...

    There was a guy in a side-by-side who we met at little sluice. He and a group of 3 other rigs were just coming down little sluice. He blew his clutch so I guess you could say he was in zero wheel drive...

    So yeah, I guess you could say a pre-runner could do it, but not likely under its own power...

    The other way to make it in a pre-runner is if you do the add-front-diff-and-transfercase mod.

    If I was a "Tin Foil Hat" kind of guy I would almost think these kinds of post are staged to keep as all interested in TW. Along with the never ending threads about my "3rd Gen sucks so I traded it for a Ford", or "I'm stuck in a mud pit someone help me", or even the "I bought a 2000 1st Gen with only 10,000 miles on it".
    :crapstorm:

    I mean without the drama where would TW be?
    :annoyed:
