Dont say your looking at Flagstaff

 

Psssht. I could get a job there maybe. But that's a fat chance

 

Hey mike, we actually are moving a bunch of animals to our house. Like Lammas and sheep and horses. We’re right outside of the evacuation zone. Thank you man!
(Clarification I live in El Monte now but my moms place is still in Sunland.)

 

I did move out but my moms still around. We’re taking animals if you know anyone who needs it. We have 2 stalls open and a lot more room for sheep and Lammas In the corrals

 

Clara wants to move there just for the desert and snow....but AZ is a right to work state and the union is super weak there... not much dinero for me there

 

You've worked hard enough. Maybe it's her time to pay the bills!

 

Yeah that sucks. And my pastey ass doesn't do well in the sun and heat so living in the valley would kill me. We'd want to be up in the tonto or coconino forests. It's affordable but finding work is the hard part

 

Flagstaff is almost 7000 ft....and sedona is up there too....and homes are cheap! Need to win the lotto and retire early haha

 

I’m not sure, they aren’t ours. Someone bailed and left the animals on the property trapped in a cage. So we said fuck that and brought them to our place

 

how short was it on yours? Been keeping an eye out for deals on soft toppers, not a fan of the bestop's windows... not to mention all the rips and tears

 

You probably wouldn't like mine then...the back zipper is broken on one side so it won't zip shut completely. It's the early model Softtopper so it doesn't have a replaceable back panel (not that I can tell anyway, looks like one piece to me). I'd let it go for dirt cheap though, probably just a hundred bucks if you're really interested.

And the reason it looks a few inches short on my truck might just be because I mounted the bed rails too close to the cab and not far enough down toward the tailgate, I'm not sure. It will still close over the tailgate though, but I always had trouble getting it to stick to the velcro. I hear that's a common soft topper issue though.

 

darn, oh wellz

 

Hmm I might be interested

 

Let me know, I'm picking up a bed rack this weekend so I won't have any need for the Softtopper any more, $100 and it's yours. I can send you some pics later if you want, or if you're ever up in the Monrovia/Pasadena area you can swing by and check it out.

With some TLC it can be made to look good as new again I'm sure, there are no holes in the material at all and the frame for it is in good shape. It was a steal when I got it for $125 last year. Just now the zipper for the back window is busted on one side.

 

@dtaco06 Wow, awesome pictures from your trip.

 

I’ll be down for that brotha
