This will be in the Philly area. I am going to Pen-dell for some easy to moderate mud and dirt wheeling. It will provide challenges for modifieds while allowing stockers to go home w/out and body damage (EAGLE Dead Link Removed ). Anyway reply here if you want to come. I figure we will spend 4-5 hours here then head home to wash the rigs

The cost for this one time deal....free. I figure on getting there at 10:30. That means I get up at 10 head out the door. It is north east of philly

Doggone it!!

I've been looking to go off the pavement somewhere in the east half of the US for a while. But, my sister's coming into town from Florida this weekend, so I guess I'll miss this one. I'm in Ohio, so keep us posted as to when you'll have a run in Central PA, Southern OH, or Tennessee. I'm still pretty much stock, but I do need to practice a bit before May!! Hopefully, I'll be able to join ya'll for a weekend run sometime soon.

OK here is the plan. I will meet EAGLE and anyone from the south philly/jersey area at the Sunoco at 12th and Vine in Philly at 10am. We will then go meet torture in his neighborhood near Pen-dell.

Pine Barrens? Just give a date (preferrably a sunday) and I'll be there

Hey gtmazz,
A Piney run sounds fine to me. You can count me in for one. I have heard that the Pine Barron’s are not that interesting. How about we make it a little more challenging and what for some snow on the ground? Just a thought. Ofcourse anything is challenging for a stocker.

Hix:
I don't have your email address anymore...send it to me @ elitchendorf@primavera.com and I'll send you my phone number......as I said, I can probably make it, but you might want to call me sun morning to confirm. I don't want you waiting for me unnecessarily.....

It is off route 1 a mile or 2 from I-95. If you know the area tell me where you want to met and I'll lead it from there.
 






Hey HIX and Tourture
I can meet you at the same exit off of 76. What was that exits name… Green Line or something? 10-oclock sounds fine. Maybe next time Tom Wilk.

Yahoo!! this trip just seems to get better and better. My cousin just called and he will be joining us. He will be in his stocker. I hear the weather is supposed to be nice as well. Hey HIX is that Sunoco the same gas station I meet you at before? Was the exit 36?

I want to thank HIX for putting this little trip together. Even though conditions weren't right for stock Explorers yesterday, I still had a blast meeting everyone who attended, and enjoyed my first real 4x4 experience. When I get the pictures devoloped they will be sent in and posted.

Eric,

You missed it! Right after you left we headed to the first place the Hummer got stuck to mess around and Drew almost rolled his bronco. I'll let Eagle tell the story since he was in the passenger seat

Hey guys,
Sorry I missed out. We need to set something up for an East Coast Wheelin Millinium Party. Early January would be good. Please let me know if anyone is interested.

I have a pretty good place to go thats totally legal. It's located out in western Maryland. It's a good place for moderately stock trucks to go. I took my 94 there with no suspension mods and stock tires and did fine. There were some areas where bigger tires and more ground clearence would of helped but I managed. I'm getting my Explorer lifted on December 21st so sometime after that would be great. Please send questions or comments to me directly at ExplorerDude@hotmail.com.

Happy Wheelin,

Hey Hix:
