I'm looking to do some wheeling next weekend, Sat. or Sunday before the Super Bowl. I'm in Tioga County. Anyone on here know a place even relatively close?

Depending on how he's coming up, the interstate might be off roading enough, especially I80 or the turnpike.

No, not driving it up but it does still get 300 a tank on the highway...

Not sure what time frame or exactly where but just want to get a feel for what is in store and what places to look for and not look for so to speak...

Probably later in the spring or early summer.

Well that ain't terrible. Try to hit up rausch,lots of fun. And by that time of year I'm sure atleast a couple of us will be going to rausch when you would. Btw,update for anyone that cares. My Jeep will be under going surgery for boat sides next week, and I will be ordering my air locker and carrier this week to finish up the parts list for my axle swap. Hopefully have them in next week or the following as well

300 miles to a tank? My God that makes me feel horrible... I average 120 to a tank why did I put so much money into an engine to make it cost me more money??? Lol the thirst for horsepower is sickening.

I've got big plans for the jeep this weekend, I'm going to sit in the corner and stare at it. Not going to touch it at all. Waiting for parts as usual.
