Your incident also shows you who can be trusted as a friend to save your ass when called upon. And who can't.

Yup and trust me i wont go with this dude again. Ill save that for someone who is ok with helping outt in a possible life/death situation

Makes me warm and fuzzy to know that at any given moment, I have at least 14 gallons of water in the back of the TB, blankets, A/C, and a sweet mister system to back it up. Now to stock up on MREs and install my second battery.

So ummm.... you still gonna be out here in my neck of the woods around during Thanksgiving? I never heard back from my PMs.

As of right now we're still coming down. There is a slight chance we won't be able to make it, but that depends on if I can get the TB ready for the long drive. We were going to barrow a car from the wifes Grandpa, but he sold it. So if I make it, I'll have the TB to play with too :excited: :flex dirty: :camping: :friday:

If that TB shows up with any Icon parts in it, I can see sending it home with 4X4 wood replacement struts in their place. :poke:
