    yeah that's the weird part, I simply deleted his tag from Mike's quote and when I hit reply it turns it into a link to his profile :confused: I tried editing it twice to do what I wanted and it still does it, oh well not worth the effort lol.

    how much work is it to install/take off the tire carrier? been thinking about one, but wondering if it'd be a bitch to remove if I need to use the bed for anything else.

    Sounds like my kind of trail. I gotta hit it one day.

    I should name my truck Whiskers. Like a cat uses its whiskers to see if it fits in a space, everybody behind me can judge if they fit based on how much damage I take.

    As of now, every weekend is booked until at least mid June to work on my shit. And then I turn the procrastination up to 11 once the triple digit temps roll in. I told myself I will break that habit this year.

    Not scared of it. I just can't plan around the heat and burn the midnight oil like I used to with my old shop setup. I have always been a nightowl when it comes to wrenching, but I no longer have a shop that is far from the closest neighbor/tenant to bother.

    After the motor gets built, I will be bugging my brother to help on my electrical panel and wiring. That is a big weakness of mine, and he is meticulous with it.

    Yea the BLM made it pretty much impossible to keep things organized as planned so it made things pretty hectic. But with all that happening and the shit show that was the trail runs I think we did alright. And to add to that we lack of anyone wanting to lead groups so we ended up with groups far too large. I had 16 rigs, Miah had like 30 something, you guys on Odessa had like 15, easy group had 20 iirc.
    So yea we need more people willing to lead groups to spilt that up.

    There’s so much info out there about the area I was pretty surprised (or was I?) by the amount of people totally in the dark about the trails they signed up for, especially Doran/Odessa. I told a few guys that morning not to run that loop for the sake of holding everyone back

    Aaaanyways I’ll be out there on the 7th & 8th pre running all the moderate trails and checking out the harder ones I had to turn around at because of my group last September....if anyone wants to cruise let me know I’ll have one other rig with me
