Rad. Count me in then. where should I meet up with you guys?

I am staying at Canyonlands. I'll be there Thursday @ noon or so. If you don't catch me there, the morning meets at City Market will work too. It's not a big town, I am sure we'll see each other.

Ayone want to a short trail Thursday? I can leave early Wed and be there by 3 on Thursday.

Chad I got your tire buddy,
I also test drove the Explorer off road yesterday. I should be good to go, mixed up some flexing with some 50 mph washes with some hill climbs and the new rear suspenison ran flawless. I also ran all of my lights and had no electrical issues.

After a 1200 mile drive, the only trail I am doing Thursday is from my camper to the pool with a 6 pak

I don't know. We'll have to see. Thursday is supposed to be a short driving day, 2 or 300 miles, but right now my plans are to relax and do nothing by the pool. I haven't had any real veg time in a while, and sometimes you just need to shut off your brain and relax.:smoke:

 

[chad551]

I have a 1200 mile trip to.. Maybe poolside with some beverages is a good idea..

Are you going to have it fixed for Moab?

 

[JTX]

Im almost set to go! Just need to redo the exhaust on my dodge, dunno wtf is up with it. At about 50mph it vibrates the hell out of the truck. I know its the exhaust because it didnt start happening till i put it on. Just a pain in the %$#!

 

[R.J.]

should have it fixed by thurs

 

[Rick]

I drove the Explorer for the first time since changing out the spring. First off, it barely made it out of the garage The new spring lifted it enough that the roof scraped the garage door for about 3 feet at the back of the truck.

The ride with the shocks mounted correctly is a bit better, but I was pleased with the way it rode with the screwed up shocks

While doing a "pre-flight" inspection on the trailer, I found a tire with a huge bulge in the tread. Glad I caught that one before it went "BANG"!

Regarding dinner at Branding Iron. The owner is setting up a special dinner deal for us, which will make things go much faster. He's been trying to fax me with the details, but we're having a hard time getting it to go through. I hate faxes

This is the best week of my life. This weekend I spent with some of my best friends in a cabin in the mountains, I got my 2LT commission tonight, I graduate from the Academy tomorrow, and I get to finish the week in MOAB!!!
