Man, I would love to, but I work weekends, and Holidays. I have to work on Thanksgiving. I am supposed to go up to Kingman with a buddy for thanksgiving, but I don't think it is worth it. Get off work Thursday late morning/early afternoon, drive 3 hours NW to Kingman. Eat food, then get up the next morning to drive back home so I can work Saturday morning. Not worth the tank of fuel.

This makes me want to get my dads jeep back on the trails again, so freakin bad. There's nothing better than driving a 10 mile trail in the hills that takes 2 hours.  :punk:
 I wish i had pictures of my dads jeep on the trail, but they're all actual pictures, not digital, and i don't have a scanner to put them on the computer.

man that thing is in great shape, had to chase the rust around the body on my cj5 until I finally just replaced the body with a fiberglass one, about to get it finished. you guys in the southwest are so lucky.

You are right on that point buddy, the southwest is really nice to the underside of these old bones. but you have to stay up on the paint so they look good too. The sun out here is pretty hard on dashes and clear coats as well.

they have a h2 recovery unit decal that fits nicely under the other jeep emblems and looks very authentic!

It's like the SRT badges though......it needs to walk the walk if you're gonna wear the bling.

Otherwise, it's like a virgin in a mini-skirt.....what's the point?
