    Thanks for posting the pics & video. Maybe I will meet up some day. MY buddy might be putting together a winter run with several Toyotas. I will post up if he does. We will probably go to Rocks & Valleys if he does it. He only lives a little bit from there.

    BTW, watch out running by those powerlines. The DNR loves to hammer people for running them. There are only a couple in MI you can run that are legit ORV Routes.

    Two reasons actually: Thats how I did the first dew attempts and about broke my head and shoulder (windsheild and seatbelt). 2nd after a few hard hits started to worry about my fab/welding skills on the rearbumper, It took it like a champ.

    Edit: I also was alittle worried about hurting Matts nice new truck.
