that would be awesome. its looking like they want to go the first or second weekend. we went the second weekend last year and it really wasnt THAT crowded. whatever weekend they decide i will post it and whoever wants to come along is more than welcome. im goin with a group of mainly isuzus but they welcome anyone to ride. i would probably go down on a friday night and camp at arrowhead until sunday around noon.

i had one in my exploder, and have one in my yota. I love them. Couldnt ask for more from it.

Its quiet, locks hard, never bangs, and the customer service is amazing. Get an Aussie.

sorry for the delay of my reply, yes I still have it and I'm over my mind laps. it's not for sale. it could be purchased but it would cost, I'd have to build another bigger and better than before.
