Alright Bilfman, sounds like time for a build thread. Another 4x 3+3 is exciting.

Re: post up your camping pics

I'll definitely post a thread. I love the 1 ton 4x4z . No plans on this one being too pretty, just a beastly functional workhorse.

Re: post up your camping pics

woke up this morning & our bathroom skylight was ripped off. found it in the back yard, incredibly it survived a 20 foot fall, was able to put it back on. only damage was some slightly wet drywall & a puddle on the floor. only thing wrecked was a stack of my four wheeler, truck trend magazines.

decided to head to Tamihi creek. spotted a fire, took a couple pics, then actually ran into the forest ranger a couple miles down the road. he did not seem concerned about it all. said they were prob slash burning at Riverside. told him i was just there & it's blocked, he just kinda shrugged at me-hmph, kinda lackadaisal attitude about something burning in the forest, 'specially after all the huge fires we just had in the last few months....
