FWIW: Most people are surprised by how much room is in the back of an F-150 Supercrew. I’m 6’2” and have the driver’s seat in normal driving position. A person my size can sit behind me and have legroom like in a 7 series. Forgive the junk and low light but I thought pics of seat up and...

D. Raptor or Power Wagon depending on what you want to do with it. Not sure how you’d fit a family of 5 in a Jeep with gear. Guess you’d have to pull a trailer. I’d be worried about weight too.

I’m glad you guys made it out of there okay. I sure as heck couldn’t swap out an axel somewhere on the North Pass like that. What a nightmare.

Apex Road, North of the City offers great plane spotting if you’re into that. Area 51 farther up the road a ways.

Map props to @RedBeard for organizing such a cool event today. I had a great time meeting all you guys and learning about everyone’s setup. A great turnout with some super kickass rigs. Awesome to see them all lined up. I really look forward to wheeling with this group. I had a ton of fun and...

I leveled up... ATTACH=full]81743[/ATTACH] I think the new badge #16260, matches the factory finish pretty closely.

Livermore #16260

The above is correct truth.

We have a TJ. I practically wrote a love letter about it in the Jeep registry thread. Like others say, get the 4.0L. It’s common for those to go for 200-300k or more with decent care. I like the 5 speed. Be prepared to pay 15k for a nice one. Do your best to find one that doesn’t leak. May not...

Good thread here. About weight, I’ve been very aware of the negative affect a high-mounted RTT has on handling, especially in corners.

I agree. If Lippencott’s in nice shape it can be a good choice.

A word of caution, the weather and those roads should not be underestimated. If you haven’t been before it may be easy to do that. Being stuck/broke out there during a government shutdown will not be in your favor. I’ve been in and out of SV several times, if it were me and I absolutely had to...

Planning to be there. Looking forward to first OB event!

Planning to be there. First OB meetup.

This is our Rocky. A 2002 Sahara 4.0L. It’s stock except for some old ranchos, tires, tow bar hitch, and stereo/speakers I Crutchfielded in at a campsite in Elephant Butte one day. I’m told in a prior life it was responsible for a major traffic jam after its first engine blew up on the Bay...

Some favorites:

I stared at it in the driveway thinking, “Raptors lose part of their dignity when you wash off the mud.” I also thought, “God I love my truck.”

Anyone else considering going to watch the air show around the NTTR in March?

Stickers for the memories they bring back. This little TJ Sahara has punched well above its weight and earned them all.

Don’t forget to consider New Mexico.
