    Gave me a chance to attempt a couple long exposures. Definitely a noob but would like to play around with them some more.

    @Digiratus I thought I remembered this trail having a few more challenging spots on it but it wasn't all that bad. Just a bumpy ride for the most part.

    Basically a river bed the whole way up a fairly steep incline. Lots of nasty rocks scattered about and some big ones here and there, but at 15lbs the Coopers ate it all up.

    I remember the KM2's being more squishy when aired down- but they were very well broken in. The Coopers still probably have some more breaking in to do.

    521 up in the Big Horns aka "Gold mine trail". Name says it all, theres an old gold mine and some cool stuff to look at towards the top. There's even a ran down box wagon on the side of the trail.

    3 years ago we both had a mutual opinion that we didn't want them either. Baby fever is real, and you never know when it'll hit.

    Lol the truck doesn't talk back :laugh:. But yes. Just like the truck.

    I wish more smart parents would pop some kids out. It seems that the smarter people tend to be more career driven and "selfish". Two of my professors (they were married) adopted at an older age and I think that's the best route. They were able to travel and work in awesome areas and now they make enough money that a kid didn't stress them out. And they are still traveling and doing cool stuff. Glad you and Jen got your lil turd though. Should be a fun 18 years for you guys.

    Morning Guys. Got a question for yall. I was turning left into a a very tight parking spot the other day, and hear a terrible rubbing/grinding noise coming from the front end of the truck (sounded like it was from under the drivers side wheel well). At first I assumed it was my tires rubbing, but I cant reproduce the noise when I turn sharp to the right. I checked around the forums and some people has mentioned something about the brake dust shields, so I checked on both sides, and those looked ok as well. I was curious if anyone has any other ideas I should look into. Thanks guys. Have a good Monday.

    What tire size and lift? Also u can have that happen when ur turning and under compression vs on a flat surface. I had wheel run but only turning one direction and backing up and had to be on a slight slope.

    @Digiratus

    Finally bought and used an aeropress for myself tonight. My kitchen is so small I didn't want a drip machine and I am glad I didn't go with one. This will travel to work and back since they make some crappy coffee there.

    Just need to sew up a travel pouch for it and off the the field it goes.

    Dude I use mine every day since Jen got pregnant and gave up coffee. It's seasoned big time. I pour in the first full to the top and wait for it to drain half way out then fill it full again and stir then wait for it to drain halfway ish again fill up one more time and press it. That way I get a full big mug in one go. The grind has alot to do with how this method works tho. Enjoy!
