    Smaller frame pickups

    The dakota is a cool pickup! You still see them alot actually. Yeah the smaller ones are getting close to the stance of a bigger pickup. Those chebbys are pretty wide!

    Is there a trail that you wouldn't run again?

    Its good ground to cover. Takes you from north park over into steamboat springs. Its neat cus you avoid hwy 40 and are on dirt the whole time. First county rd south of the grizzly ranch that heads west. Think there is 5 miles of paved road west tell you hit dirt and climb up and over into...

    Is there a trail that you wouldn't run again?

    That Rand area is cool as heck. A pile of beetle kill though. I worked for a Ranch 40 min north of chambers lake for 5 years and did alot of stuff in an out of walden. I haul ALOT of hay out of coalmont off the ranches on the bottom of buffalo pass. That is a cool drive!!

    Unruly people....

    I agree with this statement. do alot of day trips and call that wheeling. Also go out some weekends and stay in one spot and call that camping that i have to wheel to. But I think the overland nature is running and gunning the whole time. A 1+ day trip where your goal is getting...

    Bed toppers?

    Thank you for the opinion. You are 100% correct. They are costly ! But my dogs arent allowed in the cab of my pickup so was thinking more in the lines of them. Finding the one is the hard part. Thank you!
