    :thumbsup:
    oh but you are :spy: sorta...

    But not me :(

    I have it pretty low, only a few inches over the cab, and I had a ton of crap in the bed as well so I didn't really notice it. I was expecting to feel a difference but it was minimal if any. I do notice the tent when my bed is empty and I'm on the highway thought. Crosswinds are scary!!! :eek:

    AND THIS IS A PICTURE THREAD NOT A BS THREAD!!! :goingcrazy:

    Looks like an amazing trip thus far.. Hoping to make it out to CO once I get off the boat in Oct.

    Creeping your picture thread out in the Bering Sea!

    Mike - that sucks about your ARB.. pretty sure that Carl will make good on it.

    Keep those pictures coming!

    I think it was probably a good thing that you didn't come on this one...you would have been more freaked out than me I'm sure! These were the roughest trails I've ever done and I was stressed out the whole time.

    Rich! You'd be soooo proud of me! :D I made it through Morrison (well most of it, not the switchbacks) and I only remember a couple of minor scrapes...and a missing mudflap. I shocked myself when I made it out without any major issues and we only had to be spotted up one section, made it back out on my own.

    That's just because Frank is a fat ass :rolleyes: And its not the RTT that makes it heavy...its the rack and 60,000 lumens of lights you have perched up there!

    Yes, that's you. I told you you weren't missing out...
    Its OK...I said many, many bad words on this trip myself :eek:

    Heck ya it is. I thought u got the close up pic of u

    And it deff is the tent adding a lot to the top heavy feel. After we took off montes you could instantly tell a difference just driving around town. Of course the top heavy feel is amplified by how tall the truck is and how soft the springs are an how fast you go

    To be honest, I'm not so sure that's the case, I've been through some sketchy stuff before, and I live here in WY, so I've seen plenty already. Plus, I love a challenge of picking new lines and such... But you may be right!

    Just setting the record straight that I'm not a wimp. :cool: Most of the time haha

    Ya dude u would have been fine. Might have scraped a bit more with your smaller tires, but there was only one real "obstacle" on the first leg, at goose lake. And that wasn't bad at all. Most everyone got through with no drama. The trails were just a hard workout on the suspension going over all the rocks and bumps.

    Oh, good, you brought enough for everyone! :popcorn:

    Well, I didn't notice my tent back there but then I don't treat the trails like a drag race :rolleyes: I take my time and go over everything very slowly and methodically.

    are too! :boink:

    what are you calling small tires? I'm on 31's

    Slowly and methodically except the last obstacle :rolleyes:

    And some people do drive faster than others, which does have an effect on the feel of the tent. Hence why I included it.

    And you did scrape on more stuff than others did because if your tires. Watched u hit the diff a couple times.
