I won't have any firewood. depending on how late we wheel I could maybe run to my parentshouse and get a little but that is about 45 miles each way from the reservation. My dad might come out and ride with me so if he does I will see if he can bring some wood with him if he comes. No promises...

What is the schedule going to be for the weekend. Are we meeting friday night up at the cinders or in pheonix. also what day is the BBQ going to be on. Let me know so I can start to plan when i have to leave and when I will be getting back. Matt

Indio is a town way out in the middle of nowhere. when you get off the freeway in temmecula take left at the off ramp go under the freewaythe road you are on is highway 79 take and stay on that all the way to warners springs 37 miles or some thing like that. How does this sound for a meeting...

I plan on being in temecula at about 8:00 friday night. where the map quest says: 23: Merge onto I-15 S. 37.5 miles ( 60.3 km) 24: Take the CA-79 S exit towards INDIO. 0.3 miles ( 0.4 km) 25: Turn LEFT onto CA-79. 37.8 miles ( 60.8 km) At #24 it says get off...

Temmecula is the town that you get off of I15 and get onto hwy 79. You will defenently have a blast out there if you can do it. It is my second favorate place to wheel right behind the rubicon and is more fun then the cinders in Arizona. If you can make it defenently try especally since they...

here is a map quest i ran i hope it works and helps a little Dead Link Removed

The best I can do for directions is once you hit the 15 south take it to the hwy 79 south exit in temecula. get off there take a left under the freeway. At one of the gas stations in the next quarter mile or so top of on gas and any food that you need. Keep going straight and take hwy 79 south...

I will be leaving up here at about 2 or so I get out of class at fresno state at one so as soon as I can pack I will start heading down. I usually go down 99 south to the 58 west in bakersfield then take the 14 in mohave to the 138 in palmdale and take that to the 15 south and down. I go this...

I can't make that weekend. I have some church stuff that weekend and the next weekend is California 500 race I'm going to. Maybe some other time for me. Matt

Hey Jim if you want to follow me down you are more than welcome. I am coming from fresno so I have no idea if this is on your way or not though. I will be leaving here around 2:00 or 2:30 friday afternoon to head down. I plan on stopping in temmecula to pick up food and other stuff for the...

The trails aren't to bad out there. Most of the really hard spots have bypasses around them. As far as being off camber its not to bad. We can spot you through any spots that get tippy. The good thing is since most of are vecicles are about the same size so just follow the line the person...

Hey shipwreck I gave you the wrong directions You need to take S2 DO NOT take S1 like I said earlier. Also as you are coming in on 78 you can follow the signs to Warners Springs. Since that is where the road out to the reservation is. Matt

Depends on where in California you are. Where my parents live there is only smog inspections when you buy a vechicle. My parents have lived their 10 years and we have only done 2 smog checks. When we bought my 86 ranger 3 years ago and our 75 f250 5 years ago thats it. Matt

Wish I could go. Thats only a few hours from me here. I am going to disneyland that saturday and the California 500 nascar race sunday. Matt

Hey shipwreck It should take 6-7 hours. Go the sameway that you did out to truckhaven Keep going south past truckhaven about 15-20 miles to higway 78 take that west. You should go about 35 miles until you get to highway S1 you will take a right go about 20 miles down that till it ends which...

Its not all just driving up the sides of hills there are some pretty cool little tracks out in the flat areas that are fun to cruize around in. I know when I was going to NAU we would go wheeling right behind the university it was mostly mud but a few rocks to climb. If you look at my website...

Hey Ken that sounds good. Were you the one that I said I would have a spare tire for? If it was I don't think I am going to. I have one that I am keeping for myself which has less than 1/4 of its tread and all the others are trashed just about to have bels showing. Sorry I can't help you out...

The second weekend would work better for me. That will give 2 weeks after school gets out to get ready and 3 weeks before the rubicon. The cinders are a blast. Matt

Are there any tricks to replacing this wndow. My truck got broke into and busted the window. Also what tools does it require. Matt

Looks like we are going to have a nice turn out on this run. I have a toyota and a YJ that might be joining me out there as well. What trails does everyone want to run. I would like to run down tobbogan hill and past bagsbys rock I think that is it only ran it once want to get another run...

Depends on the trails we decide to run. There are few I ran in 2wd cause i broke the front a few times. I will more than likely have an open seat out there if you want to ride with me. Also depends on how hard you drive and how much skinny petal you give it. Matt

I will be down in san Diego during that time. send me an e-mail maybe I can join up with you for a little day run somewhere. Let me know. Matt

As far as Los coyotes there are some easy trails that are out there. But since it is a rental just take it out full coverage and then go out and run the fun trails that are out there. The main problem with some of the trails in Los coyates is alot of brush on some of the trails that will add a...

Planning on running the whole trail starting at loon lake the morning of tuesday the 26 and come out the afternoon of the 28 at tahoe. So far it looks like i have myself and 2 other rangers. Any one else intersted Matt

Hope you can make it shipwreck. Hope you get everything worked out with your truck. If you need directions let us know I am sure we can get you directions. I hope you want some more pinstriping on your truck if you come. Matt

Not sure exactly what you mean by a tension scacle but if you make your shacle longer on a ranger it will lift the back about have the length you add into the schacle. Make sure you keep an eye on your pinion angle so you don't get a vibration and or blown u-joints. Another option that I may...

I cant make it I am not going to be able to make it down for TDS. can't get far enough ahead in my classses to take a whole weekend off right before 4 tests. I will defently make the los coyates run. I am bummed I have tryed to go to TDS the last 4 years and something always makes it so I...

I would have to agree with shipwreck on this one. I use 4wd in my truck 10-15 a year pretty much only when I am out wheeling. When I am at my parents house they get snow a few timeas a year so I use the 4wd then but maybe only 2 or 3 times a year. My truck also sees about 30,000 a year on the...

Nope I didn't get one I got one of the explorations stickers that i still need to put on. Matt

It is possible to go out there with a stocker. It had been raining for a few days before we got there and rained the whole time we were there. You justabout needed 4wd just to go down the main roads. Most of the trails we ran would have been real easy when dry but with them wet you slid in the...
