That was a fun day out! The mud is fun for a while, but I'm ready for some rocks!!! By the way, you did a awesome job on the video! Sorry about forgetting to give you the camera charger!

I LOVE the long bed! Not very common in 4wd SR5, either!(I know, you're Carb'd ... just stating what me and my buddy found trying to find a long bed 4WD for him, let alone an 22re one! lol) Some times that long wheel base is SHWEEET! lol.

well i had my dad drive behind me today and tell me how fast i was REALLY going, and lets just say my truck is WAYYYYY faster than i thought it was! at 40 mph on my speedo, i am really going 50 mph. at 45, im going 55, and so on. but i wonder what im doing at 60, because i didnt have the chance to get up to there. Im really surprised i havent gotten a speeding ticket. (knock on wood) haha

I just noticed all the balancing weights on your wheels! I'm suprised that you didnt get them on the inside of the wheel instead of the outside. Inside mounting looks much cleaner!

they are old rims i have with a bunch of rock rash on them so they had to balance them like that.
