well I sure as hell ain't ready.  Got up yesterday with one hell of a stiff neck.   kick Can't move my head total pain.  been hitting the pain meds.  I ain't got time for this chit.  Got a buggy to get fixed.   bs1

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

well i didn't get my entire to do list done this winter but i did get the body wrap done and clear coated ( a thanks to enemy for clearing it ) i got the shocks re-valved and the exhaust re-designed and built and some sensors moved along with tank modified and vented  and fixed the fuel sender ( i hope) along with spill  proof fuel cap! also the tank vent has a tip over valve to keep the fuel from coming out. got he brakes adjusted and oil changed and throttle bodies re-synced, so now i just have to re-set the auto tune. got the power vent with power lid wired and installed in the toy hauler as well as a ceiling fan installed, but no time for axle flip and larger wheel before the trip. i got the air bag kit installed on my truck so my low beams are no longer my high beams while loaded with the toyhauler lol. i also got the sewer line fixed after the last trip where it got banged up a bit from road kill lol broke the end of it clean off lol i also added two more led 4" lights that shine off to the side for the side hills and trails at night.

 rofl ..You referring to the typhoon I went through with the car on the open trailer? It definitely got all the crud out of all the nooks and crannys!  rofl
Did a bunch of work to the pulling rig and needs a retune, but going to pull this trip without most likely because of other things that require funding. Pull the car out of the trailer this week and revalve the rear shocks and other little stuff, also replace and relocate the inverter in the shack so when the fridge thaws out it doesnt fill the remote board on the inverter full of water. I found out electronics don't like that for very long lol! I have all sorts of luck with H2O!

A second frozen treat maker Carl!? You guys are going to spoil us all rotten!!

How many of you bring kids? What age range?
If you remain calm while everything around you is complete chaos... then you probably haven't fully understood the situation!
