Stop buying gear and get a friggin' trailer....eep:

LOL i know trust me! I almost grabbed up a old M416 trailer for $500 and the day i was going to go look at it some guy beat me to it and grabbed it up i was pissed! Their becoming more and more hard to come by these days and the ones that you do find all re done people are asking $1500-$2000 :der: That's what i want for know anyways and then put the RTT on a frame on top of it. But anyways for this even you can't do a trailer because were not going to be base camping so we'll be at a new spot every night that's why i opted for the tent cot to have easy set up and brake down. This is more expedition wheeling so it should be interesting, you really have to be more weight concous now as far as what you have for gear and make sure your not to over loaded with crap but at the same time make sure you have enough to last you the 4-5 days lol Like i said this should be interesting, i'm sure by day 2 me and chris will be living off of PB&J's and beef jerky hwell:haha By the way any body have any good simple food ideas for breakfast,lunch and dinner for the 4-5 days?

Got 1 from campmor their brand & has worked great , self inflate kind but I always give it a cpl puffs to fill it quicker very comfortable on the ground even better in the kamprite tent ! 36x90 ?

Ok great thanks good to know i'll definitely check them out. I think the thermal rest one is similar to what you have, that sounds exactly like what the guy had who wrote the review,that style seems to be the way to go with the tent cots

Dude you're overthinking this. No one is allowed to leave before the drivers meeting which goes at 0900 every day, you'll have plenty of time to cook a gourmet breakfast before then. Besides that it's not a timed event so again you'll have plenty of time to stop by and get provisions to cook 7 course meal for dinner lol. All you need is a fridge to keep the steaks and beer cold [emoji12]

Early August
Got a nickel size rock chip in my windshield from a high speed run out from the trails. I thought I was far enough back from my friend's truck in front of me. I guess not.

8/21/15
Windshield Replaced

Good times:thumb3: We definitely have to go back this fall! Oh wow that's a nice sized chip! You should get that fixed before it starts to spread.
