Almost forgot, I have a bunch of firewood. Don't know how much I can fit in the Cruiser but I can bring a bunch in the Dodge for those with room. Geez, this is getting to be a re occuring statement. (MCR5)  :camping:

Thats right BigMike, 38's, go big or go home. haha actually I decided to go with the 38's cause I want to run swampers again and the TSL's only come in 36 and 38's I dont want 36's so that leaves me with 38's :yupyup: Where is everyone staying the night? There is no way that I am going to try and drive home after that long of a day. To close of a call last time :shakehead:

"Might" is not acceptable. You've gotta go with us dude! If Marlin goes, then I'll be running my 35s, so you should run your 37s and both of us can see how much of a difference 2 inches makes! :driving:

It should be lots of fun.

Hay Mike, I think a couple of friends of mine are going with us too, so add probably another rig.

Damn! The rig count is getting up there isnt it? But then again you got to figure in the few that will wimp out at the last minute then the ones who just dont show up. Soooo, were still looking good! Lotsa trucks. Should be fun. I just hope I am not one who has to wimp out at the last minute :lipsrsealed: due to my truck not being ready.

Ahh what?  Did you ask if you could go or did you tell them you were going?  hehe

Tell them you won't be driving alone, we can caravan.  I took that Friday off from work.

Well in that case....

I was going to leave either at 330 ish or if I can get off school at lunch then around 1230-1 ish. Thatd be better because itd get me to Fresno around 6ish maybe later after din if I stop. Ill tell you what my plans are when it gets a bit closer so we can caravan down.

Just looked at the website for Sierra Summit ( http://www.sierrasummit.com/current_conditions.php ) and it said this!

New Snow:
(Natural, last 24 hrs.) over 8 INCHES

Below is from 90toyflatbed's trip up there on the 7th-8th.

Well finished the wiring on the cruiser tonight, so this may be a good trip to be on. Nothing like a spring under ring to kill all hopes of making time. So where are those who are trailering meeting, i have a date with the DMV on the 23rd but if i miss something it's gonna be trailered. Gotta show Freds40 what his old rig can do, since after the con it decided it should be our campfire. if i can get some tube bent i should be there though with only the rear welded the front is gonna be hurtin. We'll see if the fj likes the last part of bald where it burnt the last time. Hopefully all works out

You should just go and caravan down there with TEX on Saturday Morning. Only thing about following him is that he goes 70-75 the whole time, so I dont know about you, but thats 5th gear full throttle.

Don't forget all of us locals that go up there most every weekend! I know of probably another 7-10 local rigs that'll be there. I was up there yesturday and the snow was great. We made it to the tower! It was snowing like crazy when we left, so all is looking well for the run. :driving:
