Camping?

Camping?!?! Sweet, I think I'd be in on that. It would beat driving out there way early in the morning.

We talking sleeping bags and fire type of camping I'm assuming? Where do you guys camp at? I'd probably through down a sleeping bag in the bed of my truck and go from there.

The 24th!

Yeah, since more people can make the 24th for sure, lets just make that it.

Unless someone else has another idea?

Regards,
Joel

I've gotta figure out a place and time to get my Bilsteins in now!

Mud in your vehicles?

Hey guys,

From your comments I'm thinking you must have gotten mud in your vehicles while driving through some of the mudholes. Am I understanding this correctly?

I'm kind of an anal-retentive neat-freak who wants to keep as much of the mud on the outside of my truck as possible. I thought I'd share a tip with you guys to keep the mud on the outside of the truck and out of your cabin.

Apply a coat of vaseline to your rubber door seal. Greasin' it up with vaseline will create a much harder to break seal against your door frame.

Regards,
Joel

aaahhh man I wanna go so badly. I wasn't initially going to go on this trip. But I'm addicted. I should be getting my CB in this week, still trying to find an antenna. and I'm also looking in to some mud tires. Damn this sucks .. I finally got it some what clean.

I'll fight the peer pressure as long as I can

Ignorant me...

Hate to betray my ignorance, but how do I do that?

Windows down in the mud huh? Wow, that is a little bold for me. It'd be fun if it was someone else's vehicle. hehe

Yeah, that is what I figured and I did that. Note that the subject of my first post changed but not the subject of the entire thread. Any other ideas? I thought for sure that would do it.
