Sounds good. Hopefully we can get some type of club arranged.

There are a few clubs but none I'd care to join or that'd have me. Even one that goes on road trips to look at leaves and such. Bit of a waste for a lifted jeep if you ask me but to each his own. If it ever quits raining I'll be hitting up the chapel. Had some friends ride there today but I'm on call and couldn't plus didn't want to deal with that much mud.

Then you don't want to go on the rides me and Conner go on. I've driven most of prentice in a 2wd truck. Mine is a trailer queen so I can beat the crap out of it and not have to worry about driving it home.

Ya I've been all over prentice in a stock z71 in 2wd because the transfer case was broken and I didn't know it until I was all the way down Haley road. I would say that you probably don't want to join either of us on a ride tho because we've both got other cars to drive daily and both of us seem to spend as much time wrenching as we do wheeling.

I think I spend more time wrenching. I don't seem to break the easy and cheap things anymore.

Yeah I don't either. As soon as my wrongler and crawler sell I'll be back in a pretty basic Xj on around 33s. They usually last a little longer than most of the stuff I get. It's hard to afford this addiction on the budget of a 17 year old with no job.

Connor, you need a job? I'll put you to work in the shop!

Marc, I think you may do more wrenching than wheeling, but lately I do too, only for different reasons.

BClark, you're safe to ride with us. Mine's not a daily driver, but I drive it to teh trail and prefer to drive it back home. We have a couple others who are DDs that ride with us, we don't get to crazy, unless you want to.

B.lee: sounds good man. I have a ZJ that needs some work so I may fix it up an make it my trail rig. And yea I'd just like to have a club where we could have some organized meets/rides and also go to other people's rides/meets as a club. Idk I just think it would be pretty cool. So me an my buddy are thinking about starting one up.

Lol I understand that I'm waiting on taxes so I can get 35s. But I think if we start a club it will be more open to any off road vehicle and not just jeeps cause I got many friends with different rigs.
