Sounds good. Once you guys have a general set of coordinates you can shoot them to me and whatever CB channel you'll all be on.

We may need an extra tow strap for when the Heep breaks though, lol.
Unacceptable, we can't allow Gabe and yourself to tarnish this holly expedition.

I may bring my daughter (9) too. Is there a physical address for where we will initially meet up? I figure it's about 4 hrs for me but I want to make sure.

Gotta pick the right time to break the news to wifey too, lol.

I have it narrowed down to Harrisonburg VA for Friday mid-morning. I'm leaning towards the Super Walmart. You can always convoy down with me from me casa.

Super Walmart will allow me to stock up on beef jerky and anything else I forgot.

Hello. What exactly are these water crossings like? Is this a "breather mod required" situation?

I'm not going to get into if a breather mod is really required, but on of the crossing might be mid wheel or higher depending on water levels. There is a detour around the deep crossing.

What type of two-way / cb radios are you guys using?

The kinda that operates on 40 AM CB Channels, or the other type which uses With 15 GMRS and 7 FRS channels? Looking to pick something up that is compatible.
