I like your truck, i was going to run liberty with you and aaron on the day after turkeyday

That was Mythica (Jerry).  He's got a black Tacoma on 40's. 

I would like to wheel sometime soon...  Is anybody in Northern Colorado?  Even Denver area is fine....just don't want to pound pavement all day to get to a trail.

Nice to see ya around these parts QD!

I'd do an exo to have more interior room; not worried about how it looks. As long as it works/holds up to a roll I don't care if it's painted hot pink; I'll be safe.

How far out is Tincup Pass from Denver? Dan and I went and it had some really nice views, think it would be a nice ride and not impossible.

Almost three hours. The top of the pass where the shelf road is is not gonna be passable. There is a reason the town of tin cup closes down in the winter

MSV/Coney would be awesome!  If they're not passable, I would bet Bunce could be bashed through.

ya that was a fun ride into Longmont to the ER with 10psi in the tires. he lost a lot of blood and even squirted the doc it the face at the ER but was out 4hours later and back to camp we went.


Depending on what the day is like we might be able to do two trails up there msv and Coney are attached so...

That plane wreckage never got recovered? I thought the FAA or whoever had to collect all the leftovers after a crash? Maybe the rules are different now...

If I get my axles done I'm in; I realied this morning my uncle has a 92 F250 I may be able to use as a tow rig, especially after I put in the 5.29s.

T-33A plane crash was an interesting thing to visit.  Kinda weird to know that a plane crashed in that area back in 1965.

I want to sell the front axle as a complete deal, you need a front axle? I'm not sure how hard it would be to sell one without gears. It'll be getting a Lok-Rite too; I'm keeping the Detroit. If it's really in there...  :crossed:

I'm down for hiking to that B-17 site; I love those planes even if they are in pieces.

Color me in; going to get my axle done this week with new seals and 5.29/Detroit goodness. I'm up for anything... need to see about borrowing  tow rig and trailer though, still don't have real plates for my pile.
