about theeeees far... | |

srsly tho... not doing the upgrades before the trip, so i wont be junping it...
keith is riding with me... lets just hope that i dont pull over and kick his ass out for making me listen to black metal... lol

so, what do you old hands suggest i bring down there? so far, ive gathered that i need firewood and drinks... and ill be bringing my dog, so dog food too...

 

Hey now, I do listen to other music too.

 

Hahahahaha! I know... Bring some music if'n ya want...

 

Just pack like you would for squaw ridge, but prepare for everything to get sandy. There will be sand in your interior, exterior, body cavities, etc for months...
The drinks are most important!! Sounds like it might rain too the first day, so bring warm stuff. Your tent I'm gonna bring has a rain fly so your literally covered there

 

Placing THIS here for safekeeping...

 

looks nice troy. I'll most likely try to make my own in the future.

 

so, got back from an awesome trip out to Pismo Dunes for the 10th Annual Ultimate Surf & Turf... this was an amazing event... MY first time on sand... definately a different experience than im used to, but i had an absolute BLAST!

only downside of the trip was my alternator ingesting copious amounts of sand and not regulating voltages too well... this in turn took out my el cheapo special battery i had... oh well... it gave me a reason to upgrade... went with the Diehard Platinum P-5 which is the EXACT same thing as an Odyssey P1400... little bit smaller physically, but will allow me to run the dual battery setup that i posted a few posts above... only downside is the price... 234 after taxes... OUCH!!... only got one, but i will be purchasing another soon enough...

lift and winch go on soon... nervous about both... but we shall see... id like to get this crap done with so i can start working with the guys who are gonna fab the rear bumper, sliders, and maybe even a tire gate for me...

 

So troy wanted me to post pictures from Prairie City this weekend

Here's the Thread: Prairie City 11/19/11

 

not many pictures from me... thats why i wanted Mak to post them on my page...

anyways, heres what i got...

some pics of the new obstacle hill that they just built...



and some pics of me flexing out the truck... yea, the rock is only about 2 foot high, but i think its still pretty good flex...





and my new favorite picture...

 

When I get my leafs swapped out Troy. We will have to get together again and chill at prairie city

 

If I had a truck or trailer, I wouldn't mind BBQing and wheeling out there all day.

 

screw that...let's all put our $5 toward some steaks and go hit up some snow!

 

i dont eat steak...

anyways, as soon as i get my suspension done (i know ive been saying that for a while now) we need to go out... i will want to test it thuroughly...

maybe go back thru that tippy section where you almost flopped, mike?

 

wait..... no steak?

 

Unfortunately.... The way my jaw grew (1" past my top jaw) make my teeth not alighn correctly... That means that I can't tear food or grind it without too much difficulty...

 

Overnight camp trip for snow wheeling??

 

ah well have a damn good time wheelin

 

seriously? you dont even attempt to try an obstacle anywhere unless you're 100% sure you can make it, or someone has already done it. So I really dont even want to hear it whether my truck nearly flopped, or if someone elses rig can "almost out wheel mine."

 

Whats so bad about flopping? It gives your truck character!

 

LOL Stockwell.
