Clocked my cruise control stalk really hard with all the steering wheel motion during the run. On the way back noticed my cruise control wouldn't work. I ended up having to replace the whole cruise control module, but at least it was only a $25 part and Landers had it in stock. No damage visible on the other module either... kinda weird.

A lot of folks are raving about the MBRP exhaust. I havent looked into it.

Default Flat Tire

After our little ride Sat, I started looking at my tires... they all have marks and little cuts but the back right tire only has a little life left. There's a big gash in the sidewall. I guess I will be in the market for some more tires pretty soon.

I believe I did... I got them used from Dennis when he went with the 35MTRs... They have about 50K on them and would make it another 10K without worry... Im just not sure with the wet months coming if I will be doing much riding... it sad when your stock street tires have more tread left than your offroad ones do.
