That might be an excpetion though, Nick. I think anyone could tow w/ that truck w/ their eyes closed. :mc_smiley: That thing almost drives itself. Towing w/ an SUV is a lil more difficult at times. I know from towing w/ my Tahoe.

FNG needs much advise on Truck / Toyhauler without brand names
dunefreak replied to OIF 5-7's topic in Toyhauler/ RV Talk
Yeah, most trucks nowadays have the tow haul mode. It definitley helps out w/ towing. It eliminates the whole hunting for a gear and also helps a bunch when going down a hill w/ a big load. I personally would stay away from a manual trans, but that's just my .02. I'd go big if I were you. If you don't- it will just be a pain in the a$$ to get everything loaded (like me every damn trip ). Even if you don't need it- extra space is always nice to have. Good luck w/ your decision. -
Yep, that chit pisses me off too, Dave. I try and keep an eye out as much as possible for kids playing along the tops of the dunes when I go blasting down the dune, but if they weren't there in the first place there wouldn't be any danger of getting hit in the first place. I personally think that the finger dune is no place for kids to play on. Maybe at the bottom of it, but not on top. If you have kids I would expect you to realize that people will be riding across the top of the finger and that isn't a safe place for a kid. It's also dangerous when two idiots on opposite sides of the finger decide to tape off the dune on both sides. Then when you go driving down the dune in a sandrail or if you come up on someone coming the other way, there almost isn't any room for you to safely pass through. Sometimes people even use rebar to stake off the tops- now that's dangerous.

I am thinking of also maybe bringing a couple beers that weekend.

I first blow out all the sand from the seats and cracks w/ a blow gun and then just wash it like I wash my truck w/ a sponge and bucket of soapy water. I just be careful not to spray the seats w/ water. Once I wipe down the car w/ a towel to dry it I just use Simple Green and a terry cloth or towel to detail everthing else like the A-arms and small stuff.

Hell I can't beleive I forgot this one or that anyone else didn't mention it... On the way to Dumont on top of Mt Springs is the Mountain Springs Saloon. Good times! Superdave, Sand~~Snake & I stopped there on the way back from Dumont one time- I gotta say it was worth stopping for sure. What a blast we had. Cold drinks, cool peeps, place has some real character, and good live music- some good ol classic rock and some new stuff too. We met some very cool people there that day. I shouldn't be telling you this though...I forget the biker's name whom I was b.s ing with, but he asked me if I had ever been there before. I said no this is the first time we stopped in. He say "ok cool, but shhhhhhhhhhhhh- don't you go tellin anyone about this place. It's our (the bikers) own little secret. We don't need no more peoples findin out about dis place!" He was a little hammered, but I understood what he meant. It's a cool little place. Sand~~Snake.... SandSnake & Superdave...

Oh yeah...I also want to thank Bobby, Shelly, Kenny & Jennifer for the hospitality. Thanks for the grub. Your the best.

yeah I know huh!? That was naaaasty! Funny as hell though. I didn't know rhino king could run that fast...let alone with his pants down past his a$$. go ISBB...go ISBB!!
-
I hope I am there w/ the buggy that weekend testing out 2nd gear...either that weekend or for the cleanup. I'll be at the cleanup regardless though...buggy or not. Crossing my fingers.

I already dropped the motor/trans off last week at Heads Up Perf. to be fixed. What else do you want me to do!!?? I gotta spend my Saturday doing SOMETHING.
-
I hope you've got a few grand to blow.

All I gotta say is.....man what an awesome day trip we made. ISBB, Tacomama, & myself rolled out to Dumont for a day trip on Saturday. The sand was smooth & weather couldn't have been much better. I think we rode more on just Saturday than on some weekends as a whole. :headbang: I am feelin it today! Sore as hell. The north pole looks good. Good job MrFJ40. We had a bunch of fun hanging out w/ RhinoKing, dunediva, McGyver, GORDONFAN, multiscale racer, and a few others. Rhino Queen (oh I meant Rhino KING ) had some issues w/ his rhino after puttin on a pipe that slowed it down significantly. Hopefully he can figure it out and get it fixed soon. He was gettin a lil pissy beacuse of it. I'm glad he got on the Raptor for once though and went for a ride w/ me, Tacomama, & ISBB. We had some good rides. :headbang: That sunset ride was perrrrfect. I'm glad I figured out why my Raptor was running like crap. ...pinched vent hose! Thanks for the suggestion, Nick. Here are some pics I took from the day... Tacomama, me, & ISBB @ the n pole Nick showed me one of the funniest Santa letters I have read so far... north pole as of Saturday 3-4-06 some DDR touch to the mailbox... rhinoking & tacomama siging the mailbox... George... McGyver cruising the new rhino for it's first trip out... the end of our sunset ride/ watching the sunset.... sunset...going... going... gone..

Freakin morons!

If my trans gets fixed in my rail by then I may go out that weekend too for a day trip to get some time on the trans to make sure everything is ok with it for the cleanup weekend. I'll keep you posted and let you know if I make it out.
