You know I'm gonna crush it again! Not intentionally, but hey - it's not my fault if the rocks don't want to play nice! Thanks again - it's appreciated!

The wife is getting a little cooler with the whole mod thing, and is already talking about replacing my dented bumper with an aftermarket one... now if only I can convince here that a lift and bigger tires are ALSO needed....

To keep you from crushing the exhaust (among other reasons)

Oh yeah....I read that the new "lifetime drivetrain warranty"
Is actually called "Lifetime Drivetrain Limited Warranty"........I knew it was too good to be true.

Wait until I come with you on the trails and drive over you ha ha...( i will be the one stuck in the mud..with towels trying to clean it ) CHOPPER..you were so shy at first..i was shocked!

Tolland was awesome - a lot of fun! It's a lot closer than I thought... using my wife's Garmin to get us there on backroads, it was only about an hour drive - well worth the trip. The guys I wheeled with, and their families, were very nice. The terrain was maybe a 6 or 7 out of 10 at its WORST points, but definitely doable in stock form. Also, we all wheeled the whole day tops down in the sun, in what turned out to be a BEAUTIFUL sunny day. It was just a great time all-around. So, summary: it was a really fun trip and I'd definitely do it again.

You guys/gals have to come along next time! WELL worth the drive time and distance, and unless you pick a really horrible line, your Jeep will come out in one piece on the other side! I'm still open to the idea of us getting together to do a Canton night run wheeling... although I think it'd be best if we wait for a little rain to fall, so that the trail's a little more challenging and not bone-dry and dusty. Canton's probably almost the same difficulty as Tolland in its worst spots, although I can think of one spot in particular that's probably an 8 out of 10 in difficulty in Canton...

Anyhow - back to work I go. Hope you all had a great Labor Day - I did!

Awwww, you're just saying that 'cuz I told you I lurk on this thread
It was a great time. It was pretty dusty, and the water crossings not as wet as in May, but still worth the trip. I'm going to try to go at least 1/month until the snow's too deep to see the rocks.

No, I meant it - good times. Try to give me a couple weeks' notice when you plan on heading to Tolland again, and I'll do my best to join you again - already looking forward to the next trip!

I just meant it is easy to do when you young and nothing like US KIDS holding you back. I applied to a few schools up there today, emerson and emmanuel. If I can get in for January I think I will be saying bye-bye to the jeep :sad:. No way I can afford it and school but I really want to go to school.

I was at the Aquarium sunday, what an awesome place I can't wait to go back but I don't think I will for a few weeks. Have you eaten at dicks last resort? I have never laughed so hard.
