Great idea! I thought the bacon fat trick was only to attract slump-busters.

Twin, twin, twin, twin, twin..........I fear that Zach may be right. Perhaps one of the meet and greets at the mall would be a better venue to start with. We can help you de-bling your deuce there, reducing the weight and thereby making your rig more trail ready. :)

Hope we to see you somewhere soon.

You guys just don't understand me, chrome, and off roading.

The chrome is in place to help flag down the rescue helicopters after I break my **** in really bad locations and even worse angles on the side of the mountain. My quickest record was under 15 minutes after hitting the trail before I had to call a wrecker and call it a day. You should have heard my buddy on the radio screaming for me to turn the steering wheel before I would have rolled it. Problem was I'd lost that particular function on the truck. When he finally caught up to me to try getting the truck off the mountain his eyes were huge as he watched me 1-wheel it out of position (yeah, 3 in the air, only need one for traction). I was still working off a little PTSD from a recent vacation in Iraq and couldn't get the smile off my face though!

And yeah! Whateva! **** goes sideways on a trail here, we stick around, we don't leave until EVERYONE, is off the trail. The way it is here. Might send some home, but, whoever is leading and few others stick around. Stories of that. Got home at 4am once for an easy trail. Oh ****! We are running it Sat. What I'm trying to say, out here, you're in your best environment to break ****.

And already told Alexa I was wearing the bathrobe and bunny slippers on the trail. Thanks bro! But, you might not want to look at pic recap

And some of us are quite adept at making repairs in the boonies.

I haven't had any late night repairs with you guys but swapping out driveshafts at 2am and plugging holes in my diff cover before I lost all the fluid is also more fun at 3am.

We will make sure we all get off the trail

Umm, I thought we were signing up for a three hour tour. Nonetheless, hitting the road in 55 minutes

My first run with this group was in Big Bear. Seth, the trail leader, broke a half shaft. We did what we had to to get him off the trail.

You can't ask for better people to wheel with.
