View Full Version : Six Flags Great Adventure!!!!!!
Asilly50NJ 05-08-2004, 01:38 PM Ok so we all get to meet up to go wheeling once and a while and all have a good time. Now how about a meeting to go ride some crazy rides, and have a blast? I was thinking about us all getting to meet up and spend some time at Six Flags in NJ. I know we all are going to Carlisle in June, so I was thinking about some time in the begining of July?? Since you all are form all over the place we could make this a 2 day deal since there is a water park along with a coaster park. We could do one park one day, chill at the beach, thats not too far away at nite, and stay at a near bye hotel and do the second park the next day. Or since we are a truck club and enjoy playing in the woods we could do one day at the park, and the next Wheeling on the Pines??? Well we have some time to figure it out,.......let me know what you guys want to do. :bounce:
ExplorerSport77 05-08-2004, 03:02 PM sounds good to me...i can't do the beginning and some of the middle of july due to work..but after that is good 4 me... :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
super idea. one thing though. how much is one great adventure ticket now? $70?!?!? :nono:
Asilly50NJ 05-09-2004, 04:10 PM yah its not too bad, its like $45 bucks,....and if you bring a coke can its buy one get one free so you can share the coast with a friend and split it. Im buying a season pass and i get a free ticket for a friend.
Heck yeah, I'm in for it :) Assuming it's not the weekend of the 28th, which is when lucky little me gets to get raped in court over Tank :p
Now that I think of it, there was talk of a Sport truck run around Manahawkin in July... if 6flags isn't too far away we could combine the two!!!!
sk1er17 05-10-2004, 06:30 AM Im in,, and like your idea Spas.
ExplorerSport77 05-11-2004, 09:09 AM woot woot

Asilly50NJ 05-15-2004, 05:27 PM ok so lets start coming up wit a date that ya'll will be able to make,...........im look'n at mid July???? I know my self and some others are busy in the begining of the month. :bounce:
hmmm RTI... I mean Sport truck run.... so when the big dawgs get bored we can park on the sporties?
LOL. You and Dave just try it!!!!!! I BITE!!!!!!! *Imitates Monty Python* "Beeg sharp nasty pointy teeth!!" :D
Well, I had a concert to go to on the 17th, but if that's the weekend everyone wants to go I'll weasel my way out of it- I'd much rather spend time on some coasters and try to drown 98sport in the ocean again.
How about meeting up saturday the 17th at 6flags and spending the day there, then off to Manahawkin that night for some camping... no idea what to do for Sunday the 18th, but I wouldn't mind chillin' oceanside all day as opposed to hot and dusty pine barrens wheelin or sitting around BSing in a hot parking lot.
ExplorerSport77 05-17-2004, 09:48 AM hmmm...i dunno about that week for me...but i'll check my schudule...the camping thing sounds good but i still and prolly wont have a tent..Hotness will have to do that trip..
Asilly50NJ 05-17-2004, 01:25 PM humm,....camping?????????? last time i did that i slept in my truck,.....but this time i shall buy a tent. never camped in a tent,........first time for everything :bounce: :bounce:
Skunk 05-17-2004, 04:10 PM sounds like fun.... but I dont do amusment parks too well.... big rides scare me...
Asilly50NJ 05-17-2004, 05:02 PM PUSSY dont be a phucking PUSSY :nono: ...........come on the girls are coming for gods sake.................

Skunk 05-17-2004, 09:08 PM ok, just need to know the date so the wife can get off of work. guess ill have to buy a tent too... either that or hit the Ramada.
Asilly50NJ 05-17-2004, 10:02 PM umm we all are werkn on the date,........it still up in the air :roll:
ill come... only if i can bring my wife.
Sure, bring her along! I've got plenty of camping stories from last year (GOLF CART NAZIS!!!) to share with her, you know, since she couldn't make it to any of our trips....
Tara, there's room for at least two sleeping bags in my tent, I don't mind sharing floor space if anyone needs it....Just need to thouroughly disinfect the whole thing with some lemon lysol or somethin..
It's been in storage since last year, ya know :p
We decide on a date for this shindig yet?
Skunk 05-18-2004, 02:25 PM Sure, bring her along! I've got plenty of camping stories from last year (GOLF CART NAZIS!!!) to share with her, you know, since she couldn't make it to any of our trips....
Greaaaaat... we could talk about all that over Kats long awaited 'Tuna sacrificial ceramony' we could make smores and sing kumbiya.
ExplorerSport77 05-18-2004, 06:54 PM we could make smores and sing kumbiya.
can u imagine..."Lizard"..sittin by the fire with his banjo singin kumbiya?! yeah folks this is def the trip NOT to miss....Linds the tent idea sounds great...i jus hope i have no more nightmares of the texas chainsaw guy comin after us since all of our trucks will be in the woods...ewww...what if my dream was a sign?!!yeah linds def bring Mr. Bat and the tow straps.. :p
Skunk 05-19-2004, 02:19 AM can u imagine..."Lizard"..sittin by the fire with his banjo singin kumbiya?! yeah folks this is def the trip NOT to miss....
Ummm.. how bout NOOOOOOO!
first off, replace the banjo with a fender and 150watt amp.
second, it would be kumbiya heavy metal reversion... 'kumbiya mother****** ... kumbiya'
third... theres not enough liquor east of the mississippi to get me to do that!
Oh God..... that image is gonna give me more nightmares :banghead: :D
Speaking of: Tara, don't worry, I won't let the Texas chainsaw massacre guy from your dream anywhere near your Explorer :D (wait a sec.... Bobby's from Texas, isn't he??? AAAAAAAAAA! :eek: )
The only campground I know of on the shore near Manahawkin is the one we stayed at last year, called Baker's Acres. I can call them and see about reservations and isht, if you guys want?
Oh, side note... How about the weekend of the 24/25 instead? (i really don't wanna miss that concert or the local farm fair, lol)
(ok, y'all can stop laughing now, i was serious.....)
Blee1099 05-19-2004, 06:36 PM I'll bring the chainsaw if Tex brings the hockey mask and himself. :D
ExplorerSport77 05-21-2004, 03:53 PM haha good song lizard...*raises lighter*..riiight....yeah Linds..i say we keep Black Jack and Hotness "away" from anyone who is from Texas...accordin to that movie the whole town was in on it...Tex might be a 2nd or 3rd generation from them....jus keep ur eyes open...haha...j/k :p tex...
and BTW..the 24/25 would be good for me...i say we all plan for that...HA HA Linds is goin to a farm show concert... HA HA..j/k on that too..hehe
Texplorer 05-21-2004, 04:03 PM Hahahaha, what you guys dont even know.
ExplorerSport77 05-31-2004, 01:48 AM eek i say on that trip we use the tow straps and tie tex to a tree at night...jus to be on the safe side... ;)
frickea86 06-07-2004, 06:55 PM hey i'm up for it, i'll be waiting for more info, i had at carlisle and this sounds way better.
So have we decided what we want to do and when we want to do it?....ok, that really didn't sound right........ *insert foot in mouth* uhm, yeah.....
Tara and I both have other things we'd like to do on on the weekend of the 17th, so howzabout we go to Six flags on the 24th (saturday)? What do y'all wanna do sunday? Manahawkin is a bit of a haul from 6 Flags and I know we're all strapped for cash this year. Some questions:
1) Do we want to camp? Hotels are mad expensive in that area in the summer..
2) What do we want to do all day? Beaches are free, just my .02
Texplorer 06-07-2004, 09:37 PM *Tex doesnt think he can do running backflips in the ocean:p
sk1er17 06-07-2004, 09:45 PM what oceans free?
Uhm... the Atlantic. Or so it was last time I checked? :confused: I meant that it's free to go to a beach and play around in the Ocean all day, lol. Any one have a better idea than all of our trucks lounging around in a beach parking lot all day?
(tex, I bet I could help you do a running flip into the ocean.... sit on jack's hood and I'll floor it then stop :D )
frickea86 06-07-2004, 10:24 PM yeah i don't remember ever paying a fee to go to a beach...i believe there all free. I'm up for camping, hotels are gona charge us out the a$$
an tex doing back flips into the ocean is most defiantly u!!!
IAmTodd 06-07-2004, 10:27 PM I'm up for it, I'll see if my sis is too. She's in that area. Might be able to kill two birds with one stone, brother/sister bonding time, and fun with the EF guys. All depends if I switch jobs or not too.
sk1er17 06-07-2004, 10:33 PM im there
but you guys never had to buy beach badges? all of LBI charges, so does seaside, so does belmar...
Bah! Where there's a will, there's a way!!! :D
ExplorerSport77 06-08-2004, 12:39 AM i'm likein the 24th...and i say we camp or something...free is good...and of Tex is gonna be sittin on Jacks hood...thats a must see.. :p
Asilly50NJ 06-08-2004, 12:42 AM count me out then,.....busy that weekend, gotta stay around home. Sorry, lets try another weekend?
ExplorerSport77 06-08-2004, 12:45 AM ewwww ...well un busy urself then... :nono:
Asilly50NJ 06-08-2004, 12:55 AM dout i can
Ok, how about the first weekend in August then???
IAmTodd 06-08-2004, 11:42 AM Ok, how about the first weekend in August then???
Good Summer Vacation!!! How about trying to make it a 3 day weekend? Friday-Sunday? Beach, Park, Wheeling?
Well shoot, if y'all wanna make it a 3 day thing (which I'm all for), we might as well make this for the first weekend in September and aim for Labor day, yes? There will be runs to paragon, Raush Creek and other places between now and then I'm sure......
Asilly50NJ 06-08-2004, 06:40 PM this seem soo hard to plan,..........you all plan wen u can and if im free i will go, if not then i miss it i guess.
frickea86 06-11-2004, 10:33 PM hey i'm up for it, whenever u guyz schedual it i'll just have to make sure i can call off work...i really hope this goes threw....i wana hang out once more before i have to go to college.
Skunk 06-12-2004, 12:13 AM sounds like a good time but I dont think Ill be able to attend, gotta stay close to home for a while due to a serious matter.... I wanna keep the stuff I got.... aint no crackhead gonna get their hands on it :shoot:
Asilly50NJ 06-13-2004, 01:07 AM oh , you gotta come :smoke:
MONMIX 06-14-2004, 01:49 PM Labor day camping might be difficult. Get resv.'s in asap.
I have a crap load of camping gear.
I have a two perosn tent,
a six person tent and a condo
that will fit about eight.
I am 99% in. Get a date asap though.
If memory serves me correct there is a Yogi Bear camp ground associalted with Six Flags. It has been quite a wile but I camped there once upon a time.
I also believe we can get group discount at Six Flags as well.
IAmTodd 06-14-2004, 06:39 PM Labor Day might be hard, but I would have to give plenty of advance at work. Hurry up and get a date though!!
RocksX 06-14-2004, 07:27 PM Sounds like it would be great fun...I would drive out there and go with ya'll, but I don't know if i will be back from Kosovo yet and i have already made plans to go to Padre Island for a week or two on the 19th... :banghead: just gonna load up the X and go with a couple buddies, and camp on the beach, maybe stay in my aunt's sailboat. Should be fun!! Isn't there a six flags in texas?? maybe we could hook up with some of you texans while we are down there, we'll be in ft hood a couple of days visiting too...
RocksX, I think you're confused a little there, buddy. We're meeting up at 6 Flags in NEW JERSEY! Texplorer (Bobby) is our "foreign correspondant" for the nutball Texas crew while he's stuck in Brooklyn, Nyc.... we all live in MidAtlantic states, lol.
As for the date, I'm going to say the weekend of July 31-August 1st (sat and sun), how's that? I really can't afford to take off an extra day and I'm pretty sure the rest of you are just as laid up right now paycheck wise. Labor day weekend would be fun, but Monmix is right, it'll be crowded as all hell. Let's say saturday the 31st for 6 flags, and camping at the Yogi Bear campground that night. I'll try and get reservations, if that's what you guys want to do.
I'm still at a loss what to do Sunday for a sport truck cruise though! NEED IDEAS, people! (I'm all for lounging around on beach sand all day though...I miss the Ocean!)
Asilly50NJ 06-14-2004, 09:55 PM humm,............the beach sounds good,......or we can wheel in the Pines??? :bounce:
IAmTodd 06-14-2004, 11:27 PM Hmm, sounds like a plan, maybe I can get another Explorer rounded up!!
ExplorerSport77 06-14-2004, 11:37 PM that date is good for me..cause my schedule hasnt been made up yet to those dates..so i can still squeeze in off next to my name at work..then we can celebrate my b-day early since its that followin friday (the 6th) wahoo for me...and oohhhh how the beach sounds nice right now...i'm so beach deprived that it hurts...anyway..lets try those dates shall we... :bounce:
RocksX 06-14-2004, 11:43 PM RocksX, I think you're confused a little there, buddy. We're meeting up at 6 Flags in NEW JERSEY! Texplorer (Bobby) is our "foreign correspondant" for the nutball Texas crew while he's stuck in Brooklyn, Nyc.... we all live in MidAtlantic states, lol.
Na, I wasn't confused, lol, sorry. I was just stating that it sounds like it will be a blast. And I was just sharing my vacation plans, guess i was just getting excited about coming home from spending the last 11 months on deployment for the good ole US of A. And was wondering about hooking up with anyone in Texas. I guess I was streching your thread a bit too far, sorry about that guys (and gals). My bad :banghead: But have fun in Jersey!!
MONMIX 06-15-2004, 09:44 PM July 31 Aug 1
I am in.
As time creeps closer we will touch base with what camping gear I will need to bring.
Is Saturday gonna be park day ?
Or is Sunday gonna be park Day ?
Or both ?
I have no problem with wheelin' as long as my Ex can sit on the pavement some where.
Yes I am a baby so what is it to ya ? :frustrate:
ExplorerSport77 06-15-2004, 09:56 PM that weekend is good for meeeeeeeee...lets set the date already so i can take off work and make it offical..cause i'm stressin that something will come up and i'll have to work...and if i take off now...and we dont go theres no goin back...and i need the $$$...so Linds..Dave set the date! :bounce:
IAmTodd 06-15-2004, 11:16 PM Requesting that weekend off tomorrow. Better not change it!!
One question: Do we want off that weekend or the weekend of Tara's 21st?? What have you got planned for your Birthday, chick?
We need to celebrate Tex's 21st right, too! (Todd, you and Adam need to turn 21 already ;) :D )
ExplorerSport77 06-16-2004, 01:06 AM july 31st and aug 1st it is then... its settled...no can do about my b-day plans came up with a good friend of mine gettin surgery the 5th..and i said i would go with and be a friend...so i'll be busy with that situtation...so tomm i'm takin off the 31st and 1st..no goin back!
frickea86 06-16-2004, 08:19 PM haha, sorry not for another few years, but the 31st and 1st would be sweet, i can stop work early, so thats cool :bounce: :bounce:
ExplorerSport77 06-16-2004, 09:02 PM aight the date is set....i took off today for it..wahoo cant wait! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
Asilly50NJ 06-18-2004, 01:17 AM ok so we have the dates set, and now i put up a post about wheeling,.........Y dont we combine the 2 and do it in one weekend??? Since we all love to wheel,.......i think it would be a nice relaxing end to a wild weekend????? :bounce: :bounce:
sk1er17 06-18-2004, 05:28 PM if we're wheelin on the 1st ill be there. I know the pines so we have a few options of places to go. Everyone who would want to drive... let me know how many trucks and what mods are so i can evaluate the best place to go.
(meaning..
wharton state forrest = lifted trucks or snorkels (ill have my snorkel by then :bounce:
Lacey = stockers can have fun as well as very highly modified *but i gotta check with the owner to see if we're aloud to be there then... its off and on with that place...
Lebenon = a stockers dreamland but plenty there to challenge trucks like mine.. will be boring for guys with 36's and lockers though after a few hours.
but lebenon is a great place to set up a grill/quates and cook-out while we wheel.....)
Any other suggestions welcome
ok, there's a few bugs we need to work out of this one yet, fellas (and ladies).
Matt, I like the idea of Pines wheelin' if only 'cuz it's right there and we don't have to go far for it. Whichever area's closest sounds good.. if it's too tame for the big dawgs they can go climb a tree or something to keep themselves entertained :D Dave, I'm sorry man, but I am NOT driving an extra 40 miles out of my way if I don't have to! (it'd be 80 roundtrip for us fairylanders)
1) Admission to 6flags is going to be $65-ish a PERSON. Dunno about you guys, but that's half my damn budget right there :(
2) Camping would be cool except for the fact that it'll probably be 100 degrees at night :eek:, which means we probably need to split a hotel room or 2 again. Unfortunately they're kind of expensive up there but I'll see what I can find for cheap.
3) Keep in mind we'll all be sunburned, tired and probably a bit crabby by Sunday!
This started out as a Sport truck get together, but I've posted my .02 in that thread and hopefully the Sport trucks can meet up at Etown in the fall instead (Sorry if I sound bossy). This is still an open-to-all run though- it doesn't matter whether your truck is lifted, lowered or stock, we're just getting together to have some fun and laughs like always.
Well shoot... if we're 'wheelin I guess I haveta bring Tank. Poor Jack is starting to feel left out here! :p :D
Asilly50NJ 06-18-2004, 08:00 PM ok, fist i DID NOT start this as a "sport truck thing".....I started it as a ECX/extream explorers run. I have no idea were this dam sport truck idea came from. i know most of us are in to wheeling either the pines or mahwah, not wasteing gas, and driving around for no god dam reason on a sunday after sixflags. Nutin about the guys that that like that sh1t, but I wanted all of us that went to Carlisle to chill. So thats that, what do you all think?.....6 flags and wheeling,.......or 6 flags and driving around like little Hondas for no reason. I know ill either be in the woods on that sunday either in the pines or Mahwah,.....you all are welcome to join me or drive around like rice,......its up to you.
MONMIX 06-18-2004, 08:43 PM Ummmmmmmmmmmmm,
Okay I am feeling a little self conscious now.
Am I still allowed to come ?
Doesn't Six Flags offer a group discount ?
izackary 06-18-2004, 08:47 PM that's the weekend of the 4-wheel Jamboree in Vermont!!! :( I've missed it the past 2 years because of stuff that came up, and have yet to make it there. Oh well maybe I'll make it out there another time. I still have to take Kita to the Jambo!! :)
Asilly50NJ 06-18-2004, 08:59 PM yah u all can come, but since i started this thread i had the plan to wheel and chill since we are all mostly lifted trucks thats what we like to do. If you want to come and you have a sport truck we will have enough room for ride alongs................
Dave, don't be so insensitive, man. If you'd go back to the first page of this thread you'd see that the idea was to roll the Jersey Sport truck run thread into this one since they couldn't make up their minds what to do. Originally we were going to try and go to 6flags saturday and 'cruise' down to manahawkin sat night for camping. I merely suggested to the Explorer owners in the Sportie thread that maybe they should all get together a different time since they can't get their acts together, and it seems like everyone would rather go play in the sand.
They're members of this site as well, and in case you forget- I HAVE A DAMN SPORT TRUCK TOO! And I've had it since WAYYYY before I ever got hooked on wheelin. So I majorly take offense to owners of lowered Explorers getting dissed. If they want to ''cruise around like a buncha damn Hondas" that's their perogative...hell, Mike does it all the time! *grins at Mike and calls him a ricer*
Pines wheelin' sounds like a blast, I'm looking forward to it.
IAmTodd 06-18-2004, 09:37 PM Ok, got the weekend off. I have to call and make sure my sis can let me and Adam stay for Friday nite. Probably camp Saturday nite and probably go home Sunday if you're going to go wheeling(unless its close and I'm guaranteed not to get a ding in my baby :D. But probably won't go wheeling. Too messy :D Just chill guys. I agree with Linds, I thought this was gonna be a sport truck run. But O well, whatever goes down, I'm good for getting burnt and spending the nite in a nylon bubble!
*Looks at Adam and screams: "What do we do now!?"
Asilly50NJ 06-18-2004, 09:43 PM ok well maybee im lost here,...I started the thread to get us all up to NJ to go to six flags and either wheel or go to the shore. Some were a sport truck thig got involved, and it was not my doing. I aont got nuttin against sport trucks, but i was under the imperssion that all of us who chiled at Carlisle and RC were in to the wheeling end of things and thats what i wanted to get going. If i knew this was going to turn in to a sport truck thing i would have never got involved...........My bad...........lets figure it out.
Skunk 06-18-2004, 10:48 PM I dunno know where the sport truck stuff came from either... but dave... ya gotta give mad props up to the sporties.... they make look all the more bigger and better :)
If ya do Mahwah that weekend we'll come out for that.
Asilly50NJ 06-19-2004, 12:08 AM yes chris, you are rite,...........kool you better get your ass out here
sk1er17 06-19-2004, 10:46 AM 2) Camping would be cool except for the fact that it'll probably be 100 degrees at night :eek:, which means we probably need to split a hotel room or 2 again. Unfortunately they're kind of expensive up there but I'll see what I can find for cheap.
I live about 25 minutes from six flags .. theres a few hotels on Rt 130 that will be a lot cheaper than staying at the shore. I forget which ones they are but ill get you addresses and costs.
Also, we're all mixed up over sunday.. i say we wheel/bbq at lebenon.
This was two years ago. i towed a trailer with a grill/quad/quates/stereo and we set it up. Look just next to my trailer; thats actually a huge stone slab thats perfect for grilling and stuff.

Here's another view.. look to the right of the screen and you can see where i left the trailer and how big that "patio" thing is;

*** Thats my friend on my quad going through that pit... thats where i hydrolocked my engine 2 years ago and where carlos killed his a few months ago (sapogmxr);**the actual wave that killed his engine

MONMIX 06-19-2004, 12:07 PM Man I feel like such a leper !!!!!!!!!
98Sport 06-19-2004, 03:59 PM Wait, we can bring quads? Im im anyways but i wanna bring it so it we can just tell me
Asilly50NJ 06-19-2004, 04:50 PM i think matt has a great idea,.....and its good that he knows were we can wheel down there. Ok matt, now its up to you to plan what we do on sunday(as long as it includes playing off road) :bounce:
ExplorerSport77 06-19-2004, 06:35 PM but dave... ya gotta give mad props up to the sporties.... they make look all the more bigger and better :) .
riiight what was that lizard.."they make look all the more bigger and better"....um yeah ok.... ok as much as i enjoyed myself the past few times i've tagged along and gone wheelin i'm startin to feel like u lifted dick noses are startin to push us Sporties around... it now always seems to be about wheelin never...never about the Sporties...they always get left behind at the hotel parkin lot and so on..for once why cant it be about us...And Dave if i hear u "call" or "refer" Thumper..Hotness..or Black Jack to a ricer...there will be a bitch switch :fire: ...cause as U know in this club we all love our trucks...and u Can Not look down upon another X owners rig..SO dont give us the opition of wheeling or actin like rice..cause if u havent noticed this is a Ford Club..aint no rice in here...
Easy there, Tara! Dave said he was sorry...I think..... And I wouldn't say none of us Ford owners are ricers. I mean, look at Mike! :D But then again, who gets stared at the most at shows for the insanely loud system :p
I dunno know where the sport truck stuff came from either... but dave... ya gotta give mad props up to the sporties.... they make look all the more bigger and better :)
If ya do Mahwah that weekend we'll come out for that.
Yeah, we all know you need to look as "big" as you can..... *Imitates Shrek*
"Looks like somebody might be overcompensating a little, eh Donkey?"
I'm only gonna say this once- even slowly so you can understand it, ya old bastard (and to hell with pussyfooting around to protect delicate sensibilities): Lizard, if you bring the 'company' I think you mean, I'M NOT GOING TO THIS RUN.
Simple enough for everybody?
Skunk 06-19-2004, 09:26 PM OK, first of all, as for the 'sporties' thing.... ya gotta admit... its kinda boring, dont get me wrong, I love the trucks and all but driving around in circles and parking in lots and bullshitin aint as fun as wheelin, breakin sh!t, and beatin on our trucks.... Im sure most would agree... and that thing about makin us look bigger and better, that was just my sarcastic @ss there.... Im just playin with ya'll....
second,
Lizard, if you bring the 'company' I think you mean, I'M NOT GOING TO THIS RUN.
If she gets off work, then yes.... its who you think I mean.... sorry but if she is able to go and its gonna cause a problem.... Im out.
Asilly50NJ 06-19-2004, 11:54 PM Yah i agree wit chris 100%. I like all trucks and if i did not like the sport truck thign i would not be helping MeatBall Slam his truck and i would not be doing all the werk to Taras truck too. Its just the pointless driving around, Blasting the systems, anoying strobe lites(for no reason) that gets boaring. If we can get us big trucks and the little guys to drive some were for a reason, not just to drive and wast money then im down for it. Yah gotta remember, Us BIG boys (skunk&patch) really are not to user friendly as far as gas mileage for driving around, and at $2.15 a gallon, id rather be useing ,my gas for a reason.
Asilly50NJ 06-20-2004, 12:11 AM Come on chris dont back out. as far as im concerened everyones wife or girlfriend or boyfriend or husband is always welcome at a run. We all are friends here and should have a good time. And come on, Patch needs his other big buddy to look down on the little guys and Gals :p............I liek this Pict :bounce:
Skunk 06-20-2004, 12:21 AM well the wife just talked to her boss and she got the weekend off so looks like we'll be there!
Right, I'm out. Y'all have fun, try not to get too sunburned.
ExplorerSport77 06-20-2004, 01:24 AM wow....what is this club comin to?..."Days of our lives on Serious Explorations"....*shakes head*...my post early was jus to say that u big boys cant push the lil sports around...but on the other hand i know what ur gettin at cause yeah why would we jus drive around aimlessly blaring our radios and flashin our lights...the same dumb reason u fools drive threw woods crackin windshields and poppin tires..cause its something to do...but it is nice when the occasional show comes up and all the sports look there finest (cause its like "their big show day")and the big boys sit in the back and wait patiently for the show to be over so then everyone can have a fun time wheelin...i dunno what i'm tryin to say..the thing is we all took off for that weekend and were goin to 6 flaggs and then will decide from there or we should jus do it all we all drive to and from 6 flaggs together...so the sports get there driving time and then after wards we go wheelin...that way everyone is happy...plus Linds we dont want Dave or Lizard to back out cause *whispers* were gonna wanna take "their" trucks into the animal park and save ours from the lions and monkeys... ;)
sk1er17 06-20-2004, 11:09 AM Wait, we can bring quads? Im im anyways but i wanna bring it so it we can just tell me
You can bring it but im not 100% positive quads and dirtbikes are aloud there. Ive been there a few times where the ranger asked us if we've seen any... so thats your decesion if you want to bring it (whats the worst that can happen? be nice if you get yelled at and put it on the trailer?)
Ok ill figure everything out for sunday... but im gonna need to know how many people are down cause the grill i bring is one of those $20 coal grills from home depot... so i might need a few more of them (unless someone has a nicer one to bring :thumbsup: ) And then we'll need people to sign up for stuff like hot-dogs/burgers/buns/drinks/etc.
And linds/chris ... before things get more heated up here- Chris, are you going to come down to the pines? In your post you said you'd come out only if we went to mahwah...
Ford_Racing_Guy 06-20-2004, 12:17 PM sweet pics
Skunk 06-20-2004, 12:39 PM Chris, are you going to come down to the pines? In your post you said you'd come out only if we went to mahwah...
If were all stayin in south jersey all weekend then yeah.... I just dont wanna be driving back and forth from north to south jersey thats all....
If Im being unfair here please someone tell me.... Kat is going through alot of sh!t right now so Im not just gonna ditch her for a weekend and leave that wouldnt be right, so simply put, if theres a problem with her going, then theres a problem with me going.
sk1er17 06-20-2004, 01:24 PM i dont think anyone has a problem with you or her going except 1 person... id really like for you to come AND id like linds to be here too.
I also dont know the "whole" story.. just a few parts of whats going on with you guys and id like to stay neutral; therefore i say "id like everyone to be there"
I agree with sk1er. I'm neutral in all this too, but I think the question is if Kathy goes, will there be grudges and friction towards lindsey and/or others? I dont really know Kathy at all (only met her once) and, Chris, I think you are the only one who can answer that. I dont want to cause trouble, but I think thats the numero uno question.
MONMIX 06-20-2004, 03:00 PM Okay things here have gotten just a little crazy.
I have no intentions in getting into the sport vs. wheelin' thing.
Apples and oranges.
It is all stupid any way.
I certianlly hope we all here are above getting too wound up in what type of truck we drive as to make it some sort of personal idenity.
Either we all are friends and we get along or we don't. I hope to God our ability to be friends and get along does not waver on the type of truck we drive.
If so the whole point of this get together ( and much of the point of the web site for that much ) is nothing but a crock of shi**.
See ya at 6-Flags
It's cool guys... To be honest, I just postponed my hearing for the stupid minivan "no-insurance" thing to the end of July, which means after I get raped in court I wouldn't have the $$ to go that weekend anyway :(
After thinking about this thread I went out and bleached, lysol'd and disinfected my tent.... then bleached it again just for good measure. If it weren't Sabrina's I'd douse it in gasoline and light the sucker up just for good measure. Camping's cheap down here, I'm sure I can keep myself preoccupied ;) You guys have fun, I mean it.
Lizard, one thing you should be aware of----- If your 'loving wife' talks crap about me like she usually does to people who are friends with me, I won't be held responsible for what they do in return :eek:
Oh and btw, today is the 21st Bday of a certain TexASS! Wouldn't hurt y'all any to go here and bust his chops, you know..

Asilly50NJ 06-20-2004, 07:11 PM great, good to see us adults can act SOO childish,.......if we all WERE adults we would not run away and avoid problems we get our self in to. We all need to remember that the past is the past for a reason no mater what is involved in the past. Everyone should forget the whole thig and carry on wit life. The more one talks about the past that should be put to rest, it just makes more problems. I mean look at Justin and I. Last year me got in a huge fight and did not talk for 10 months, then we talked and things are kool, cause we dont talk about the past problems cause they are Dead, done, not to be brought up. Some of you should think about taking my advice. Trust me, it will help.
sk1er17 06-20-2004, 07:11 PM Linds i cant believe you're not gonna be there :mad:
MONMIX 06-20-2004, 08:49 PM Oh come on Lindsay, Okay I'll step up and be the first.
I have $15.00 I will put towards your admission to Six Flags, and your lunch that day.
Who else is in ?
sk1er17 06-20-2004, 09:07 PM im not even going to six flags.. just doin the sunday thing
but ill toss in 15 too
Skunk 06-21-2004, 12:19 AM Lizard, one thing you should be aware of----- If your 'loving wife' talks crap about me like she usually does to people who are friends with me, I won't be held responsible for what they do in return :eek:
that was completely uncalled for and totally immature.... ya know, I didnt start all this sh!t here... all I said was ".... we'll come down for the weekend".... ya know... Ive been planning and attending meets and runs before most of you were even members of this site, and I have done and sacrificed alot since I started doing all this, so I feel that I have at very least some seniority here.... If I want to bring my wife to a run, NOONE should have ANYTHING to say about it..... but to be fair, and since some ppl cant grow up here, why dont we just vote on who should come to the runs from now on..... for christ sake.... is this what it really comes down to? Now I know ya'll gonna flame this sh!t to no extent.. but please read back through the thread and reconsider your opinion and where the flames should be directed.
I really didnt want to post all this crap.... I just wanted to bring my wife to a run.... WELCOME BACK TO HIGH SCHOOL EVERYONE!!!!!
ExplorerSport77 06-21-2004, 12:24 AM Linds...i'll smack ya around a bit if u dont go...u have got to be there...none of this "i can't afford it shit"...we are a club and were friends and when 1 of the club members is havin $$ problems then the other members should help out..example: does Carlisle and Tank ring a bell..?we all want u to be there...and Hotness wants Black Jack to be there...so...ur comin..its final..and if u reallllllly cant make it..There Will Be "NoOne" Talkin Shit About U...trust me
Asilly50NJ 06-21-2004, 01:21 AM OK, yah.........Spas you have to come and leave your feelings home about all the BS. There is no reason why Chris cant bring his wife along with him, Kathys his wife and has every right to be included with what he does. We all want you to be there because you are a big part of this club and we all love yah. Chris is a huge part of this club too and i think if it was not for him we all probaly would not be here now. Im not trying to pick on you Linds, but you really should think twice about posting all the little coments that most of us know what they mean. That just starts drama. We all like both of you and want yah all there for the runs, but im sure others will agree with me that we are getting sick and tired of this never ending drama train. Its starting to bring other pepole down dealing with the he said/shes said BS. So now you need to join us for the run and act like nothing ever happened. Just be kool with everyone and dont be afraid. Trust me, we all will be there and nothing bad will happen so long as everyone acts like an adult that they should be,...............OK good its settled
PAExplorer 06-21-2004, 03:09 PM Chris,
Your wife was nothin but cool to mike and I when we were up at your place. I'd like to see you both there. I don't know anything about what's going on, so I can't comment and wouldn't comment even if I did know what was up, but what are you gonna do? It seems wrong to vote on who you want to come to a run! Sometimes adults have to agree to disagree. There are pleanty of people that I have words for, but you can't go around talking smack to everyone you don't like. Just keep it to yourself and grow up! I say if someone chooses not to go because someone else will be there, then it's their loss. Chris, you and your woman should come regardless of who else will be there. I've never met Spas, but I'm sure we're talking about good people here. We should just all meet up and let the crap rest!
-E
Skunk 06-21-2004, 03:57 PM never said I wasnt going because of anyone... hell, I never said I wasnt going period.... I said we'll be there.... it was spas that is being immature here and deciding not to go because of who Im bringing.
PAExplorer 06-21-2004, 04:29 PM My bad!
frickea86 06-21-2004, 04:51 PM Linds, u gotta go, everyone here wants u to go and u can't go because of someone. Now money is not a problem, we got ur covered or i do, that doesn't matter. U gotta come, i had a blast with all u guyz that attended and wanted to hang out with ya all again and some more from the site. I guarantee no one will talk stuff on u, everyone here is an adult and if they are not and wanna be childish don't come, but i wanna see everyone there with bright and flashy smiles. One thing i have to say, NO ONE has seniority of anyone. Its a club and people join because they want to and EVERYONE is equal and can attend any meet they want to. They may also bring who they want. I don't think its fair to u linds not to attend, plz do.
Asilly50NJ 06-21-2004, 05:00 PM Wow,....dude you just did not say "Bright flashly smiles" did you????? If you did then im starting to worry about what team you play for dude.............. :eek:

yes that is so... and she just didnt magicly come out of it.... it took mad skill on the part of the driver.
TheRookie 06-23-2004, 03:04 AM OK Lizard I hope to see you and your wife up there. Last time I drug my ass up there you guys were great. I will be there if I have to walk the whole way. Eric, You better go too. I will also see if Lou can make it but its tough for both of us to be off work the same day.
I have no idea who you are linds but I have no problem covering your entrance into the park.
m435tro 06-23-2004, 02:09 PM Hey guys..
I was trying to read this thread from the begining and I was on page three when I realized that I'm still at work and my boss might boss might caught me. So I figured let me jump to the last page.
Anyway.. wanna know when this will be happening? And can I bring my girlfriend? Or should I bring my models instead? :)
Please throw some info guys as I never been to Six Flags before (been to another state and Dorney Park only).
Skunk 06-23-2004, 09:52 PM this is gettin mad beat.... maybe if I decide not to go ya'll will pay for me huh?
Texplorer 06-23-2004, 10:05 PM Ok, what are the positive dates? Where exactly are ya'll going? Whats on Sat & Sun? Where are ya'll staying? Im all confused as to all these questions.
frickea86 06-23-2004, 11:00 PM yeah what is actually going on, like are we staying at hotels or camping and wheeling sunday or what????
ExplorerSport77 06-23-2004, 11:14 PM were goin to 6 flags july 31st and remember everybody Dave and Lizard have volenteered to drive Patch and Skunk threw the animal park..lets all make sure they dont back out of it so we dont have to drive our trucks threw.. :p ...then were drivin back to dave/justins..."i guess" and stayin around there and then go wheelin the next day?...yeah i dunno either...fock it were all jus pullin over and sleepin in the trucks..yeah that will work...and whatever happens..happens
Texplorer 06-23-2004, 11:18 PM So does that mean you guys are wheelin Mahwah? I thought you guys were wheelin the pines? It would be kinda pointless to drive all the way up to Daves area and then go back to the pines the next day.
ExplorerSport77 06-23-2004, 11:31 PM um...yeah...i'llll have to get backkkk to u onnn thattt.....yeahhhhh

sk1er17 06-25-2004, 08:14 PM Ok, assuming the plan is still six flags on saturday and the pines on sunday...
Comfort Inn
1009 US-206 Bordentown, NJ
Phone: 609- 298-9111
About 20 minutes from six flags and 35 from pines. But it's a lot cheaper than staying at the shore.
ALSO; i just drove by and their sign said "Six Flags Tickets Available".. so you might want to call up and see if they're running room/ticket specials.
Finally; if you go to www.comfortinn.com and put in Bordentown, New jersey and search, its like the first on the list; if you want more info and stuff.
**I am not heading the arrangements here. This is only my suggestion considering i live 10 minutes away from this place.. and staying at a hotel at the shore will be much much more $$$$$$.
Asilly50NJ 06-25-2004, 08:29 PM sounds liek a good idea and plan to me,.........Im down. any one else?
TheRookie 06-25-2004, 10:19 PM Oh hell yeah, if thats the plan I am in
Asilly50NJ 06-25-2004, 10:34 PM OK any one else???? Im sure i can speek for my buddy Tara while she is away this weekend, she's game to go too :bounce:
TheRookie 06-25-2004, 11:37 PM Eric, You better get off work for this. This will end up being the maiden voyage for my SAS most likely.

Skunk 06-27-2004, 08:17 PM Wow you broke all that in a day? That must have been fun as hell.
actually no... most of that happened in about 5 min on a mad hard rock obsticle, in the video, that rock was a cake walk compared to what broke the front end .... one of the u-joints was bad already for my front driveshaft.... oh yeah.. and after I broke, I wheelin for like 1 1/2 hours more.... got some vid of skunk goin through a mad rocky creek bed with all that broken stuff... shes built mad strong.
TheRookie 06-27-2004, 10:08 PM I gotta see that Video. I hope she is built mad strong as I am copying your sas :)
Asilly50NJ 06-28-2004, 07:24 PM Ok guys, I need to know whos coming on Sat and sunday for the sixflags run and wheeling trip. IM me (Asilly50) and let me know cuz im making a list and going to plan it out and figure out the hotel deal. Matt picked it out so i guess its make your own reservations????? :bounce:
ExplorerSport77 06-28-2004, 09:04 PM i'm in no doubt... :p
TheRookie 06-28-2004, 10:19 PM Will be there no doubt also.
Asilly50NJ 06-30-2004, 06:49 PM Ok on my list for sure is Tara and my self, Chris and Kathy, Mike. Any one else????? Matt posted a hotel near by for you guys to stay at. I already have a place, so its going to be a self serve to get a room.
sk1er17 06-30-2004, 06:55 PM so i get home today and there's an invitation in the mail for my great uncles 70th suprise bday. Its not till 2PM though so ill still be wheelin in the morning *cause im assuming we'll head out sometime in the morning. Not sure if im gonna attend the party itself or keep wheelin.. playin that by ear.
Asilly50NJ 06-30-2004, 07:06 PM Yo matt,....IM me wen u get a chance (Asilly50)
TheRookie 06-30-2004, 11:34 PM COME ON COME ON COME ON. More people have to go. Eric quit being such a sissy.
Where is this wheeling and when? There's too many posts to go through :P
Asilly50NJ 07-01-2004, 01:20 PM yah we are wheeling in the pines. not sure of the location, ill have to talk to Matt about that.
sk1er17 07-01-2004, 06:58 PM I think i got a lot of agreement from this idea:
*that way we can wheel and eat and chill all at the same time
Also, we're all mixed up over sunday.. i say we wheel/bbq at lebenon.
This was two years ago. i towed a trailer with a grill/quad/quates/stereo and we set it up. Look just next to my trailer; thats actually a huge stone slab thats perfect for grilling and stuff.

Here's another view.. look to the right of the screen and you can see where i left the trailer and how big that "patio" thing is;

*** Thats my friend on my quad going through that pit... thats where i hydrolocked my engine 2 years ago and where carlos killed his a few months ago (sapogmxr);**the actual wave that killed his engine

IAmTodd 07-02-2004, 09:46 PM Guys, I just realized how busy this place is going to be! Its the middle of the summer, on a Saturday. I'm gonna talk it over with Adam, but I think I maybe out. I still wanna meet up Saturday nite or something. But I can't see spending $50 to wait in line all day.
Texplorer 07-02-2004, 09:49 PM Well I was considering going wheelin on Sun but with this weeks events I dont know if I can make it now. I will have to wait and see.
Asilly50NJ 07-02-2004, 10:05 PM come on kids,....... it will be fine.............Tex, if yah want to go we will get you a ride out there. just let me know.
TheRookie 07-05-2004, 09:54 PM Well First let me say I am still in. Unfortunately I may not be doing any wheeling. I seriously messed up my shoulder and its tough to do an sas with one arm. Really want it done in time but not sure if it will be. If not I would apreciate it if I could ride with someone.
Asilly50NJ 07-05-2004, 10:27 PM i think the smart thing to do here dude is wait till you are all better to do the SAS, but thats what i would do, im just speaking as some one who has done the swap all ready.
ExplorerSport77 07-06-2004, 12:32 AM i call shot gun in Patch...
TheRookie 07-06-2004, 12:52 AM Figured you would. This sucks. Wednesday is my b day and I get to go get an MRI :bounce: Damn

ExplorerSport77 07-06-2004, 07:02 PM Good choice..........Shit, its been a while since ive been in the hospital and have had a hott nurse come running every time i push that little red button on the bed :) ...........Man i gotta go back :bounce:

Right now My understanding is 6 flags on the 31st and wheeling at the pines on the 1st. there is hotel information posted but i am not digging it up right now.
Asilly50NJ 07-07-2004, 07:41 AM how lazy do u guys get,...............DAM!...............OK Sixflags on SAT, wheeling on Saunday, and its find-your-own-hotel on sat nite. Matt posted a idea for one for you guys. I have my sleeping plans set. Heres the hotel for yah, Comfort Inn

Asilly50NJ 07-07-2004, 06:46 PM EWW tara,....your soo,.....sooo,.................. :frustrate
TheRookie 07-08-2004, 12:56 AM Well Doctor was no fun. Damn good thing I am not clausterphobic. Then after it all I find out I will not get any info for a few days on the results. Doc was already mentioning surgery though. Rut roh
Asilly50NJ 07-08-2004, 01:09 AM sooo yah coming to this trip still?
TheRookie 07-08-2004, 02:52 AM You bet. I will be there no matter what. Just unlikely to be able to do any wheeling. Rides will depend on what happens. But I will be there.
frickea86 07-08-2004, 05:42 PM as it looks now since my ride has made it clear he is not going to six flags or going wheeling then i dont' see a point in going, and not being asked didn't help so sorry guyz. I would drive up my self but i gotta go back the next week and 1200 miles with in 2 weeks just doesn't seem appetizing to me. Sorry... :-(
Asilly50NJ 07-08-2004, 09:14 PM great,........looks like this run is falling apart :banghead:

TheRookie 07-09-2004, 10:57 PM Heh, fair enough. I will understand soon. Does it count that I have all the parts sitting here right now? hahaha. Right now they are collecting dust. DAmn I wish I could put this thing in tonight.
Skunk 07-10-2004, 11:50 AM i wanna move back to jersey so damn bad.....PA SUX and the people up here are all ####ing jerkoff assholes !!!!

TheRookie 07-10-2004, 05:52 PM who you calling a jerkoff ####### ? oh yeah it is true though

sk1er17 07-12-2004, 09:47 PM Carlos took off from work and is attending "sapogmxr"
He's bringing his girl.. who everyone probably know is hott as hell from the gf thread he started to show her off :thumbsup:
He's got another friend comming also
I have my buddy from school comming in his wrangler and he's most likely going to have 2 more jeeps with him.
Another buddy with a lifted F-150 is there, and hopefully my 2nd brother (marc) will be there with his 97 Sport.
So how many more guys to we have from this site deff comming? Looks like its gonna be a nice BBQ!
Asilly50NJ 07-12-2004, 09:47 PM ahhh,..........got yah. Its funny i want to go out to PA and you want to come to NJ,...........lets trade spots. LOL

Skunk 07-12-2004, 10:02 PM ahhh,..........got yah. Its funny i want to go out to PA and you want to come to NJ,...........lets trade spots. LOL
dont get me wrong, I like the area, wheelin is great, but the people up here are so damn fake, friends talk shit behind your back, bitches are mad shallow and dumb as ####. If I could get some ppl from jersey up here.... id stay.
TheRookie 07-12-2004, 10:24 PM Yeah Chris is right. People in eastern pa suck. But alas i suppose its a matter of where you considder home.
update, I will definately be there. AND I may be solid:) I got some help i didnt expect and Think I am going to try to go ahead and do the swap before the run. Should tear out the front end thursday. I do officialy need some serious surgery on the shoulder but I will deal. Isnt that what everclear is for?
frickea86 07-12-2004, 11:35 PM just to stand up for PA people, i'm not a d*ck all the time....or an a hole...i'm a cool guy when i'm not jagin ya... :cool: :bounce:
TheRookie 07-12-2004, 11:38 PM jagin? you are from near pittsburgh huh
Skunk 07-12-2004, 11:40 PM ok.. let me be a bit more specific ...... Hazleton and the immediate surrounding area is full of assholes
PAExplorer 07-13-2004, 11:01 AM That's more like it. I love PA! Rookie, what's up with your shoulder? Need help with the swap? Give me a call, I can take a day off of work if need be. My truck is in need of some serious parts! I'm in the process of replacing the brake pads and rotors, but I need to get a new steering shaft, upper and lower ball joints and my transmission is strugglin'. Money is tight too, so I don't think I can afford any of this stuff right now. The rotors and pads just set me back about $550.00 from EE!! Give me a call.
Later,
E
TheRookie 07-13-2004, 03:29 PM Wow thats a lot of money for brakes. But knowing EE they are all top notch parts. Thursday my front end comes out. I was going to sport 35 1250 mt's but got old shop to float me some mud kings. not what I wanted but when all you pay is delivery costs you cant bitch.
Asilly50NJ 07-13-2004, 07:07 PM Yah need good brakes, I just did Tara's this weekend and got the good shit from Autozone, new pads and rotors with the Life time warranty. All for $100, so after a few months ill swap them out and keep all new shit in her truck all the time, its great. :bounce:
TheRookie 07-13-2004, 09:37 PM I am a firm believer in quality parts. Since I get dealer cost I really dont know what list is anymore. Its roughly twice my cost according to my uinderstanding. I will tell you to stay away from most lifetime pads. Think of it like this. For a pad to last overly long it must also be incredibly hard. This will eat up rotors quickly and cause more heat. more heat = more warpage. The only lifetime pads I would ever buy are ceramics. Also harder pads arent as efficient as softer ones. Hence race cars always changing brakes.
ExplorerSport77 07-13-2004, 10:27 PM yeah i had a great weekend with Dave..and got to hang out with Justina and Tex...btw Justina IF u come after me with a wet noodle again..theres gonna be a smack down...then while i wasnt lookin Dave and Justina gave Hotness a uni-brow that had this decal on it and took pictures...my poor truck..(Sorry Linds :p )
I'MA STRANGLE YOU GUYS! So help me Justin, the next time I come up there that bugshield is DEAD! DEAD DEAD DEAD DEAD! :fire:
explornj 07-13-2004, 10:40 PM take a number spaz, :bounce: :p ;)
ExplorerSport77 07-13-2004, 10:44 PM Justina...whats that mean?...ur the one who stills owns one of those things...if n e thing u should be the one Spaz should go after..
Skunk 07-13-2004, 10:54 PM It all started a couple years back with a bagel.... a single bagel with tuna fish on it.... yes, as much weed as I smoked in my time I still remember the first time I called lindsy 'tuna'.... for a while I was the only one calling her that immortal name.... then one day doug found it equally as funny to do the same.... well after that there was no question who everyone was talking about when the word 'tuna' was said.... then one july afternoon, I came up with the great idea of putting 'I brake for tuna' on everyones truck for lindsy to see when she arrived.... well that set the 'tuna joke' into the history books.... and insured its immortality. To this day, there are only 2 of those left that I know of, one justin has as seen in the above pic, the other is stuck to a large pipe I now use as a pry bar in my garage..... and everyone still knows lindsy as 'tuna'.... its funny how one name can be used in many different ways.... one of my favorite took place in an Arbys fast food joint in Carlisle PA..... I remember saying the word 'lesbian' quite loud and 'somone' turning bright red shortly thereafter.... well however you may interperate it, the name 'tuna' will be around for quite some time I think... SO GET USED TO IT LINDSY!!!!!!!
Mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn :banghead:
Wha? me? play a criticial role in getting the Tuna fiasco to the immortal state it is in now? never.... you lie like a dog...
:) :p
IAmTodd 07-13-2004, 11:07 PM Mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn :banghead:

:p
Skunk 07-13-2004, 11:24 PM I know nothing.... and you can't prove it!!!

I know I got a pic of your truck with that decal on it somewhere... just wait till I find it pal....

THANK YEW Todd! Nice to know SOMEONE's on my side...! Jeezus.. this joke never dies, does it?!
Btw, if I ever find ANY 'tuna' stickers on EITHER ONE of my Explorers, there will be some serious @$$kickin' going on! I MEAN IT!

smacks Doug around and says "Hey i rem before i ever even knew Linds u tellin me about that and sharin those pics with me"...dont lie doug... :p
Asilly50NJ 07-14-2004, 07:28 AM WOW this is great,..all this started while Tara, Justin, and I were sitt'n around his pool this past weekend. Tara asked if Justin had the Tuna thing and I replied, Look you can see it from here. Hey, wait, lets put it on Hottness and take a pict! Here we are now,...............this is GREATTT!!!!! Chris, I think we need more Tuna Stickers :p :bounce: :bounce:
Asilly50NJ 07-15-2004, 07:21 PM ok guys i know this thing is soo messed up, but we need to know who is coming or should we just call it quits???? i dont want to do that but it seems we really dont have it too organized??????????So whats goin on?
TheRookie 07-19-2004, 03:03 PM perhaps we should delete this thread and start a new Cleaner one.
I am in if others are. Though My X will NOT be ready to wheel
Skunk 07-19-2004, 06:40 PM im on the questionable side now, I need a rear....

as for the run, it all depends on how much this all costs.
Asilly50NJ 07-19-2004, 08:40 PM im having some rear probs too, so it depends on if i can werk it out in time...............So maybee
Skunk 07-19-2004, 08:44 PM just took off the diff cover.... can we say shredded wheat with extra iron.... just an idea.... what about the following weekend? ill be able to replenish my funds by then.
ExplorerSport77 07-19-2004, 11:45 PM pooooooooor Skunk....stupid ..stupid Chris....but it was funny watchin u and Dave drive Skunk backwards all the way home from Blockbuster...and it was my bright idea to do that...dont forget it! u were gonna jus let her out in the rain all night in some parkin lot with a bunch of hillbillie kids runnin around...and hey hows ur new lil ranger buddy....
Asilly50NJ 07-20-2004, 01:15 AM Well sorry gals and guys, but i wont make it next weekend. Something just came up tonite that i have to take care of at home that weekend, so ill be stuck home. Well at least it will give me a free weekend to play with the truck since i took that weekend off of werk already :bounce: But i would rather be making good use out of my season pass to Sixflags. Well hope u all have a good time. Take picts for me :bounce:
TheRookie 07-20-2004, 02:11 AM HAHA drove it home in reverse? Now thats funny. The ring and pinion are shot? usualy donuts wrecks spider gears. Though I imagine that changes with a locker
Asilly50NJ 07-20-2004, 07:25 AM ok dude, go put a new set of 35's on your truck if it can fit them and give it a shot and get back to us and let us know what happens. I bet it wont be good. :burnout:
PAExplorer 07-20-2004, 08:34 AM My truck is dead as of right now, so I won't be going. I was low on funds to begin with, but now I will be broke after fixing whatever is wrong with the donkey.

Arnie897 07-20-2004, 09:00 PM One of these days I should take a road trip out this way...sounds much more interesting than the Midwest.
Screamin T/A 07-20-2004, 11:06 PM hey guys......I know most of you dont know me but a few of you do. I am best friends with Mike (98sport) and I have been wheelin with a few of you. I went with Lindsey, Chris, Doug, and Mike last summer in the pines with my truck. ('79 F-250). Also I've been wheelin with Justin and Ben before also. Now Mike (98sport) told me that you guys were going wheelin this weekend and that I was invited to come. But now I talked to him and he said that he didnt exactly talk to you guys at all. (figures...... he's not a quick one)
Anyway, I was just wondering if it would be cool if I could join you guys when you go wheelin? Also is it this weekend (the 24th) or next? (the 1st) Just let me know though ok....thanks.
Damn, it's Mike #2!!!!!!!!!!!! It's about damn time you joined this site, slacker! Meatball keeps telling us about how badass your F250 looks now and I have yet to see it :(
Sorry about this run falling apart guys.. if it hadn't been me ruining it something else would've- we're all just too broke and broken to make it happen. There's been talk of an August run to Paragon though.. if you want to join the debate, go here (hell, all of y'all should go here anyway and post)
BS thread (http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=112818)
sk1er17 07-26-2004, 06:43 PM Ok well the six flags part is what fell apart.
**THE WHEELING IS STILL GOING ON**
Right now i have about 10-14 people going to wheel/cook-out on Sunday August 1st as planned.
I need to know exacly how many people from here are still comming so we can figure out about burgers/hotdogs/sausage/rolls/drinks. I think i got my buddy to bring his big grill so we should be good there.
Anyone who still wants to go wheeling give me a call 609-802-8890 so i can get this all straightened out. I wont be online that much this week cause i have to go over my aunts house everynight and i dont think they have internet. So if you want to go wheeling, call me. Ill be there whether or not anyone replies from this thread.
Screamin T/A 07-27-2004, 12:11 AM Hey Sk1er17... I dont know if I have ever met you or not but I was wonderin if it would be cool if I tagged along? I will see if my friend mike (98sport) wants to come to. If you dont get this message I'll give you a call sometime before the weekend... let me know..
Bronco_bill 07-29-2004, 05:45 PM I hope someone will recap the finial plans Friday as well as what to bring. I guess the six flags part is out is out but everyone is wheeling Sunday? Can someone invite me to the BBQ Sunday? Still need to install windshield and pry my fenders off my wheels so i don't know how much wheeling I will be able to do, but the BBQ part sounds good.
sk1er17 07-29-2004, 06:50 PM we're meeting at the Wawa thats at the intersection of Rt539 and Rt70 at 9am.
Bring cups or something.
Actually here's what we have so far:
Me: Burgers/dogs/grill/quates
Carlos: cooler full of drinks
mike: chips/condiments
jay: rolls
i guess we could use another cooler full of drinks.. its gonna be hot probably.
sk1er17 08-01-2004, 07:50 PM I didnt have my camera but a few other people did so hopefully pics will be up soon.
Funny story, Friday i hydrolocked my engine again.
I spent all day working on it... And this is what my truck looks like after today:

I dunno how funny it is to hydro an engine :eek: What happened??? I'm sorry I missed it, wanna fill us in on details?
sk1er17 08-05-2004, 06:22 PM My friend marc wanted to get stuck on purpose just for fun.. so he did and i pulled him out. He got crap stuck in his brakes so we had to pull his tire off to clean it out...
while we were fixing his truck i let my girl drive my truck. she babied the hell outta it but would come back every 5 minutes and be like "look i got mud on it :bounce: " , but there would be like a dime sized spot of new mud so me and marc would laugh at her. After we laughed at her for the 3rd time she went gung hoe in this little mud whole (maybe about 40ft in diameter) :burnout: . She loaded my truck up with mud and while i was watcher her dip in and out the mud never went much higher than my hubs. So she came back all proud that she got muddy like :bounce:
She didnt put in in 2wd though.. and i couldnt have my girl get the X more muddy than I :cool: .. so i said "watch this" (<----Famous last words anyone?) Popped it in 2wd, went to go do a donut in it....
Well i seemed to find a rut she didnt cause my front end with straight down with my engine revved :roll:
