    Utah is an amazing place with endless out door activities I think you'd love it especially you wanting to get out of the city!
    Trust us there is snow galore!

    Do it. I came here from the East Coast 8.5 years ago and I'm still kicking myself for not doing it sooner.

    And snow? The Wasatch had it in spades, but the greatest part is that relatively speaking we get very little in the Salt Lake Valley, so not a lot of shoveling at home. If you'd like some insight into and photos of Wasatch snowfall, check the Western section of my website's user forums for any topic thread stated by Admin, yours truly:

    Congrats man! I just moved here a few weeks ago and so glad I did. Of course, I moved from Ohio so it was a bit more of a move but so worth it.

    Just came out to salt lake to visit some friends. It's beautiful here, quite a change from wv. We only have 2 days here , from what we have seen it looks like an amazing place to raise children. Wish I had my taco here , so much off road fun here.

    Just wanted to throw this out there for any of you Utah guys. Would anyone be interested in buying my used Bestop Supertop? Its for 2nd gens with short beds so 5' beds. I got it a few years ago but only had it on the truck for about 10 months and its been sitting in my garage ever since. I took it off cause I had to transport my dirt bike a lot. Let me know if your interested and I'll come up with a good price.

    ^^ lifts are easy to install man. TOYTEC has really good instructions, regardless of the brand. If you have any mechanical ability and access to a place to install it you can do it with two people and a 12 pack. The AAL can be a bitch, but that's what friends are for.

    So I decided to turn into a post at my apartment complex this morning as I was backing out. Damage was pretty extensive; new fender, flare, maybe a new bumper. Hopefully the headlight and hood is still good. Can anyone recommend a good body shop in SLC? I want it fixed right. Man this sucks!
