Just have them go with a person with a built rig. But I would imagine as of 2 weeks ago there is still lots-o-snow.

Memorial weekend is a trip to Jose Basin put on by Hang em High.  I would hit that up and see what you can make your truck do.  It is an easy trail but has super tough sections that you can watch built rigs get denied on.  Plus tons of people to help you when you get stuck.

Most of Jose Basin closes from November to to April during the wet season, the only road open is 9S09(I think) during that time.

I got the 340H.  It wasn't shifting right.  I did some reseach and found out it was probably the solenoids.  I was getting a code through my OD light.  Never could figure it out.  I ended up just changing the fluid, putting in a new filter, and put a bottle of additive in it.  I haven't had a shifting problem since.  It's been over a month now.
