i might be there i know on the 15th, i'm suppose to pick up my new rims and tires if i could ever figure out if it would be better to go with 8 or 10 inch wide rims on 33's.
 






everyone that going please post here and let me know so I wait for you Sat morning, also, if anyone is intrested in wheelin sunday let me know, unfortunatly I have to take it a bit easier on sat as my steering pump is bad and it takes 3 days to get it so it wont be in till sat afternoon, I just had a custom line made today and it still leaks like hell, the shaft seal is shot.
 






We'll be there Saturday morning. Sammy is ready now too :D

Well I have to bail on this trip.. Since I recently lost my job and have a traffic court date coming soon, I don't have the funds to make it to this trip. Then again things could change..
 






heres the deal, I blew my steering pump out tonight, and wont get a new one till Sat morning, so... were gonna change the meeting time to 10:30am, I know Jeff is coming but thats it, if anyone else is planning on coming please let me know asap.
 






Anyone else going??? If not, would we be better off to re-schedule?
 






I think you and lizard can still have some fun out on the trails, Jeff. It doesn't take all of us to have a kick@SS time, ya know ;)

Someday.... someday I hope I'll be able to make it back up there for a run, dangit! Sorry I'm out for this one :(
 






Well, the ever present Paragon bug has bitten again. Decided to test out my new winch, and the $%$^& alternator wasn't up to the task....split the case wide open! I need to put a bigger alternator on it, but the bracket comes from Colorado and won't be here for a couple days......ugh.....The zuk can't go. :fire: here's the carnage....

*sarcastic remark* well that was a fun filled weekend now wasnt it? *end sarcastic remark*

heres the deal, from now on if ya wanna go to paragon you got 3 choices:

1. the first weekend of every month is the monthly ride, pay $35/truck w/driver, and $5/passenger, sit in a group of 20-30 trucks and wait 80% of the day.

2. Go anytime, pay $35/truck w/driver and $5/passenger, and $120 (or possibly more now) for a guide, and have fun.

3. if you want to set up something with me, ill do it for free, but you prepay $35/truck w/driver and $5/passenger, paid for 1 week or more b4 the run. non-refundable after the one week deadline. Ill take ya out there and make sure you have a good time..

sorry, but I wont do this fly-by-night thing anymore, I brushed off many other plans for this weekend and dont appreciate it, I know some had good excuses, some just bullshited me, and some didnt even have the courtasy to let me know if they were going or not, but hey, whatever, guess im the one to blame now cause I keep doing this, planning **** and it folds at the last minute. Call me an @sshole, call me a dick, but if you think about it, you'll see that im right.

Thank you, and thats all I gotta say about that.
 






i'll start this off by saying...anybody got a good lawyer???

i spent friday night in jail. man that was fun, you meet alot of neat people in there...... one of my drunk buddies decided instead of listenting to the cop that was giving me a sobriety test at a checkpoint, (i was the designated driver.) he would start yelling and eventually wrestiling the cop to the ground. one thing led to another and we all spent the night. got out at 5 am. i'm not facing any charges since i wasnt drinking and just sat down on the curb as it was happening but jeez my friend really did it to himself. I'm 23 and he was undarge at the bar with a fake id, so the cops went back and got the rest of the underagers at the place. my parents werent too happy but once they realized that i did nothing wrong and was actually being the good guy, they calmed down.

did you guys ever actually make it to paragon?
 






i spent friday night in jail.

Damn dude! Sounds like you had a helluva time!!! Glad you didn't get locked up though... hope your underaged buddy learned a lesson :eek:

2. Go anytime, pay $35/truck w/driver and $5/passenger, and $120 (or possibly more now) for a guide, and have fun.

I thought Paragon didn't require a guide as long as there's a minimum of 3 trucks??

nope... the policies have changed, altho someone could take the first guide class to take out 3 trucks if they want to, becides, does one really want to spend all day figuring out where to go? you know how poorly the trails are marked, me... Id rather get someone who knew the park and enjoy myself.. but thats just me.

I dunno, if it's YOU telling ME where to go, I might just take my chances, LOL :D

Seriously, I agree with you on the poorly marked trails and enjoying oneself with friends, I was just curious as to when/why they changed the policy.
