I'm way into that! I cannot wait to beat the heat
Trip is right around the corner.
Looking forward to cooler temps, I can't even imagine that right now.
What is campfire situation? Is it allowed for cooking? Containment tray?

I'll look into the fire situation. @emulous74 and I both have propane campfires that are allowed even during a burn ban.

Hmmm, I had been thinking I wouldn’t be able or needing to bring a Dutch oven for cobbler.

Fire restrictions might change by then but they have been getting a lot of rain out there

Is anyone down to leave an hour earlier? 5am instead of 6am?
Influencer I
I just think it would be nice to hit the road as early as possible. Group vote though

I like sleeping in, but getting to NM earlier is better in my book.
Influencer I
Let's be real, no one sleeps in before an awesome out of state trip. The excitement is way too much to sleep through.
^^^ Said it best. I do not enjoy waking up early, BUT, getting to our first destination earlier sounds better.
Speaking of getting their early - I've got an Escort Max 360 and tend to drive 80-85 so we can always make up a little time on the road too.
+1 for 5am.......since our bodies will still be on eastern time it will feel like 6am

5AM it is then.
Just so you guys know, I just got this truck about 3 weeks ago and am SUPER pumped to take it off-road. I've done alignment, oil change, new FOX shocks all the way around, window tint, paint protection from the windshield forward, leveling kit, and just installed a new exhaust on Friday. This truck is ready to go! One of my goals for the trip is to jump it and do some sweet off-road donuts. Keep an eye out for a good spot!
Here's the exhaust video if you're curious what a 6.2L sounds like opened up

If anyone is coming from south of Austin we are meeting some others at the Chevron in Eden, TX at 07:45. We can all fuel up and get back on the road.

No but I do have a Trasharoo and a YouTube channel. @dna44 has a skottle and with the drone we'll be a legit group of overlanders.
What drone do you have?
