Finally got a new computer so I can post some pictures. Hit a short run this weekend but only snapped some shots after we got off the trail. The truck got pretty dirty with a mix of snow, ice, mud, and dirt so the pics arent anything special. But this was the first time I got to try out these Cooper STT's and they impressed the hell outta me. I thought I got good grip with the Duratracs but these things grab like crazy!

Thanks, I really want to hit the mountain trails, but they're all closed
Judging by those pics, you have good off-road spots.
-You do have a nice rig to do off-roading with. I'm still working on that... Some day I will catch up to you (on the lift)

EDIT: BTW, where did you take those shots at? Looks a bit familiar...

Thanks rondo! its a 04 eddie bauer with the 4.0

will eventually go modification crazy, once i get the money.

I can't leave anything alone... ive been working on a 40 year old honda cb350 for the past year and a half... will be done soon. When i say i touched every bolt, i touched every bolt, inside and out.

the truck is my fathers and needs to remain operational, so any mods will have to be done within a day or two at the max. (plus no garage, as i live in f***in new york city).

she needs a locker, lift (6" should be nice ), bigger tires, to start... tune exhaust etc later.
