Hey neighbor! Just spotted you on the map and thought I'd say hello. Say hi if you see me around town... BCBrian

Going to a concert that night or I would've been there......

Good looking tires! I would suggest that you do the chalk test and adjust your tire pressure down to help extend the life of these tires. At 50 PSI you are going to wear the center of the tread out quickly. Just looking at your pictures, you can see that the tread is not flat on the ground. I...

Since you guys are interested in wheeling here, I thought I'd post this information from the Calif 4 Wheel Drive Association. I used to wheel at Pismo back in the late 70's when you could drive 18 miles down the beach to the cliff for hill climb craziness! On Memorial Day back then about 25000...

Another vote for Goodyear Dura Tracs here. They work well in just about every condition except sticky mud..... but most tires load up in snot. I am looking at something different for my next set as I would like to have 3 ply sidewalls. So far, Mickey Thompson ATZP3s are looking good. They are...

This is my 2nd vehicle with the Nissan 4 liter V6 engine and automatic transmission and no issues. Regular maintenance and full synthetic oil changes every 5000 miles have kept my rigs running perfectly. I use Mobil 1 and a Bosch D3323 Distance Plus High Performance filter. Look for a 2012 or...

Full size rigs work well in Moab because it is so wide open and has no tree's. Out here in CA, many trails wind through the forest and are so tight that full size rigs are not able to get through. Many of them are marked 'Short Wheelbase ONLY'. Last year was my 1st trip to Moab and I did run...

I can run much tighter trails than most trucks, I rarely drag my tail like I did in my truck, the shorter wheelbase helps me get over obstacles easier than longer wheelbase vehicles and I can fit a twin size air mattress in the back!

Thanks for bringing back memories of a couple trips in that area! Man, it looks like someone fired a bowling ball canon at the buses since I was there!! That part of NV has an almost limitless amount of great places to wheel and explore. The Wind Caves W of Pyramid Lake are incredible and...

It's really tough to make a recommendation with out more information. 1. How many passengers? Kids? 2. What are you interested in? Camping? Rock crawling? Cross country adventures? 3. What other outdoor hobbies do you have? Boating? Climbing? Cycling? Fishing? Hiking? Kayaking? Skiing? 4...

I took a trip out there and stayed at Green Creek CG last summer. There are a bunch of good spots off of Green Creek Rd to dispersed camp for free. You will need a fire permit available at the Forest Service Station just S of Bridgeport on 395. As you are headed W on Green Creek Rd, check out...

You can find the Rotopax on sale to lessen the blow. They even offer 'blems' for a discount that have minor cosmetic issues. I went for the 4.5 gal size because it works perfectly on my homemade rack. The weight is manageable but if I had a basket rack, I would definitely use the smaller size...

How did it go? Was there a lot of mud?

The wax will hold onto dirt and when you re spool the winch line it will push the dirt into the fibers.

How recent was that last trip? Did you go all the way over the mountain and come down to hwy 80 at Verdi? Just curious about the current snow conditions because that didn't look too bad. I remember that rut from the 1 time I was up there a few years ago... Great footage! Thanks for sharing.

Another vote for - Salomon Men's Quest 4D 2 GTX Hiking Boot I have 2 pairs of these and wear them everywhere, even to the gym! Great support for my weak ankles, lightweight (relatively) and excellent grip in the dirt. Amazon has a great deal on them every once in a while at $160 with FREE...

Any of you guys headed to goneMOAB 2018? Registration is open and trails are filling up! Here are a few choice shots from last year on Seven Mile Rim

There are a few easy (green) and moderate (blue) trails at Hollister Hills that you can run without scratching up your brand new truck. I was there a couple weeks ago and drove most of the park with a group of 3 rigs. Here are some suggestions - 1. If the trails are dry, head into Hudner Ranch...

2nd Gen X's run 16" wheels not 15" . There are not any 15" wheels that will clear the front brake calipers. You can easily run 265/75-16s without lifting or re gearing. That size comes stock on the Pro4X, Here is a pic of my rig with approx. 1.8" of lift in front and 1.5" out back and the stock...

I wish I was closer so I could join you but 3+ hrs each way is a bit much for me. In case you have not seen it before, here is a link to a pretty good trail map - https://freecampsites.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/south_cow_mtn-1.pdf
