New guy from Washington

[gotrocks]

Hey everyone, I'm just checking in.  Just a little about me...  I have been in this awesome sport for about 5 years now and have owned 6 rigs in that time.  Ranging from a 99 Jeep Wrangler Sahara on Danatrac axles (44 front 60 rear) with a Tri-link front and rear Rockkrawler 7 inch Severe duty.  I've also owned 4 yotas in the last 2 years.  My current rides are a 87 Runner with a SAS Marlin cases 5.29's  1/4 rear with 56inch springs and rears up front.  My current project is a 90 Ex. cab SAS with a chev. 350/350 combo with dual cases and either the dynatracs or modified yota axles to be put under it.  Suspension is still undecided either coils front/rear or 3/4 rear and coils up front or all springs.  Don't know anyway I'll let you all know how the progress comes along.  I'm stuck in Nebraska going to school right now so I do not ahve my wheeling rigs near me  anyway. tell me what you think give me ideas I'll post pics asap.

Welcome, Im from south eastern WA.  Smack dab between tri-cities and Yakima to be exact.  Whenever ya get back we'll have to go wheeling, I have been going to OR here lately to tsf but Im planning on a lot more trips to Naches this year.

[gotrocks]

I've been dirt biking in Naches but i didn't get the chance to 4 wheel.  We'll have to meet up sometime and go wheeling.

[mudaddict]

The correct side of washington would be over by its capital on the west side of the cascades u live on the wrong side thats why its so different over there!

[WHITE_TRASH]

On this side there is no smog bs to deal with, no huge cities crammed with idiots that have no idea how to drive that are crammed in nasty traffic, basically its all republicans and moderates.  I pray it stays that way too!  You guys can keep the liberal crap to yourselves.

Well put White Trash. But dont make the mistake of thinking we're all democrats on this side...I'm just across the lake from Seattle and still crossing my fingures for Rossi! 

[Skinny_Pedal]

that was deep bro. from here on out its all lawyers now

[gotrocks]

well I agree with ya white trash my brother lives over in weattle area and he turned on us. he's not a democrat (don't understand why he's the only one in my family)  the more democrats that go into office the less land we have to enjoy

[gotrocks]

sorry there on my last post I put NOT a democrat correction he IS a democrat

[MUDJUNKY]

im also near seattle and i hate it! the democrats cheated in this election by findind hundreds of votes at the last minute. sue the democrates rossi!!

[gotrocks]

how is that legal??? I understand your pain.  the thing that gets me is that democrats want to close down even more land and they say we are wrecking the enviroment by going 4 wheeling.  Now I do agree that not all of us seem to stay on the trail because it gets tempting to go over and check out muddy areas and such.  But I heard the other day that there is something like 90 % if land taht is already in reserves and they want to close more of our forestry land to off roading and dirtbiking.  It just ticks me off when I hear of some tree hugger talking about those "stupid" 4x4 rigs that mess up all the land.  Also I get really ticked when (at least in washington) they will pull me over for not having mud flaps in the summer time when I see hot rods driving around with no fenders and no mudflaps.  how is it legal for them and it makes it illegal for me.  One more thing I have to vent about.  We fellow enthusiest lift our rigs right.  Well then tree huggers and (I'm going to blame democrats for this one) democrats start to complain how our rigs make teh roads unsafe because they are lifted.  If I could tell get a dollar for every car or small vehicle that I've helped out by either pulling them out of the ditch or changing tires Etc. because of the tools I cary with me and for having a bigger vehicle to get out of snow, sand mud etc.  I'd be a rich man.  Anyhow I'll get off my rampage.  I just will say this last thing.  Every democrat that I've talked to in discussing my choice for president or for govener I bring up one of my main reasons regarding land closure issues and the democrats I discuss things with don't ever thing that enough land is closed.  we should close almost everything for the animals and trees.  Tell me what you guys think about what I've talked about.......

[WHITE_TRASH]

Gregoire can eat a bag of dicks and choke on the last one as far as Im concerned.  I get far to enraged when I discuss politics in depth so ill leave that alone.  Lets just say that I vote on the issues 95% of the time.  I will admit to voting for Dem's on a few rare occasions where the Rep's were less than tolerable, but I basically stick with the Rep's.

White Trash - I like your posts, let me know your next wheelin date and I'd love to tag along.
