I'll bring the small chainsaw just in case.I don't think there is anything to be scared of about these trails except maybe the alabamiansis that a word Just to let everybody know, Corey, Gary, myself and all the others that I know are going are not trying to go break something, and we will help anybody that needs spotting or winching along the way, and do everything in our power to keep away from carnage.

Lets go have some fun.

That's exactly what I need to hear. I just got done fixing a whole bunch of stuff and can't afford to shell out extra cash here. I'm still kinda a newb, but I don't mind lending my winch to help out where needed obviously.

Was that a stock suspension sahara with rubi tires/wheels? Looks like no rock rails too? I'm thinkin if they can do it, my buddies would be alright.

Yes and no...
BB lift (I think under 2 inches) and stock Rubicon tires/wheels. Sahara plastic sidesteps removed.
It went everywhere my Rubi went, but I attribute most of that vehicle's ability to Porkchop's mad driving skillz. Give that man a set of lockers and he would be unstoppable.

That's great Jason!! Give me a shout if you need any more info on where we're meeting, and let the other TN folks know they're welcome too.

Seriously, give 'em time . . . they like to keep their options open till the last possible moment.

And regardless of what you do, there will always be one or two that will claim that the ride was a secret, and that no notification was ever posted (I'm eventually going to use that one myself - especially if it's raining Jan 30-31).
cut a guy some slack would ya.
