What I did instead of Moab this year...

[nfpgasmask]

Here is what I did with my full week off this year. I know, I know, I coulda, woulda, shoulda, but this trip was awesome and well worth it.

This was also the first real trip with the Trooper. I drove my VX and my bud from Chicago drove the Trooper. I can't say he enjoyed it! The tired old 2.8 and the horrid gearing made it a challenge. I REALLY need to upgrade some major parts on the Trooper. Oh, and my VX suffered some SEVERE trail rash on this expedition. It's gonna take some major effort to get her looking right again.

Anyway, here are a few Zu heavy highlights:




























Notice the trucks below me.


If you're gonna play, you're gonna pay.










Good times,

Thanks, E! I think I can get the minor rash out, but there are several deep scratches that I don't think I will be able to do much with.

May as well play. I can get worse done at the local mall around here.

[nfpgasmask]

Cool man, wish I could have made it! Looks about like what we expected. Did you get my text? I bought another truck while you were out there... Almost talked myself into driving it out there to meet you!

No, texting is disabled on my phone! Another truck? What?!?!?! Where are the pics?

Yeah, remember I was looking for a better donor truck...? Well, the donor truck I found ended up being so nice that it makes more sense to leave it intact and do an SAS on it... that's right, here we go again with that blasted acronym!

And a 'lectric fan. Don't forget the 'lectric fan.

nfpgasmask,

I am so angry I could not go on this trip. I am also angry that I did not know about it.

Your trip is right up my alley... man, oh man, what I would have given to go with you.

That is exactly the type of trip I like the most.

Give me a warning and I'll drive down next time... maybe you could head norht towards the corner of Nevada and Oregon.

Those pinstripes will buff right out...trust me, I have had worse. Looks like a cool trip. Where exactly was it? The Troop is looking good. Been following it on the Planet.
I have been REALLY tempted to go pick this up...my wallet and fixed (read retired) income are telling me otherwise though (I'm keeping an eye on it though)!

[don moore]

you know ..I see the scratches and marks ..but you didnt show the pics of how you got them.. all we see is open land ..no heavy brush...

[crotchrocket]

dude, that is one awsome set of trucks and an awesome trip....Very jelous!!!!!!!
