i think brad should lead the way so his truck can clear out the twigs and such.
Red truck with pin stripes is the ˟˟˟˟˟.
I still have pin stripes from my first BigFalls trip and my truck is not even a year old.
Seriously, someone bring the shears.

I've got a machete' that I can bring.... I know we have pruning shears too, but that would take way too long to do...

Black with pin stripes is pretty appealing too.... hehe

Ok, I think I'm ready now.... Coilovers are adjusted, sway bar is removed, CB has been tuned and tested, tires are rotated (thanks Milton for helping out with everything!). Tomorrow I may even go look for some dust lights for the bed bar and try to get that done. See y'all tomorrow for some wheeling!

Even with the carnage I think we all still had a blast. I think we would have gone further back if we had more time. I just wish someone would have gotten more pics of my truck making the trail look so easy! LOL

That's the first time I've heard what my truck sounds like from the outside since having the Magnaflow put on. I LIKE IT!!!
I can't wait for the rainy season to come back and hit Big Falls when the mud puddles are back and the creeks are a bit more "interesting"....hehe. Maybe by then I'll have my Swampers on too.

Actually, no to the muffler question. The Jardine I had at Pismo cracked and I had to get a new muffler put on. I went with an 18" Magnaflow since it was about $80 cheaper.

As for the tires, the latest idea is Swamper TSL/SX in either a 32x11.50-15 or a 32x11.50-16. I don't need the bigger diameter, I just want a wider tire than the Firestones I have. I guess mileage isn't so much of a concern anymore either since now I have a work truck that I drive 98% of the time. Sad to say, but I actually go several days without driving my Taco now :cry:
