HA! you did great in that truck with all that gear and packed with people. i'm sure you were happy with how well it performed with only minimal damage

Yeah it ran great but rocks break stuff lol, have to check the schedule think I am away for work then

What's the camping situation gonna be

some people camp but it's cold. Randy camps every year and I'm sure Dave Kase and Jensen will be camping as well. I camped twice one time it was like 32. the rest of the times i've been at the hotel or on a tow truck

I'll probably camp. Gotta put the camping stuff to use every once in awhile

I've done both, and if you don't mind cold nights then camping is a blast. But that hampton inn is also a great place to stay. That being said I might break out my mansion tent again if I can get there with enough light to try and figure it out.

what tent do you have? my tent is pretty big and is so easy to setup. its the coleman instant, the biggest one. think its a 10 person or 12 person.

does everyone want to do a group lunch? we didn't do a group lunch last year, but the year before we did the chicken fajita bowl thing with the hot sauces and tortilla chips in that massive turkey fryer pot.

We are soooo camping.

(note to self: check for the tent fly)

I'll be camping at the Hampton Inn. A shower, warm bed and continental breakfast trumps 30° night in a tent any day of the week.

I will hopefully make it up there this year, and I will be camping. I have a couple things to take of on my rig beforehand is all.

I'm not sure to be honest, but it is an easy 8-10 people.  It was the same tent I brought to the last ROTR I attended 2 years ago, and got made fun of by those at the fire because it took 3 people 35 minutes to try and figure it out in the dark.  Which is why my smaller Malamoo strikes such a better argument for going!

Might try to make it working on getting Gen III bags, new shocks, wheels and tires if I finish it by then I will make it.

Brett said he only wanted to do black trails this time

Yes I heard him say it , especially after ripping off his rear bumper on a branch lol

1 – Purchase your dinner ticket. If you have ever been to ROTR before, then you know the food from Buddy’s Log Cabin is worth the drive over. Dinner will be served Saturday afternoon following the Rock Course Challenge.

I don't trust that I will get an XXL - no way.  Got two LARGES last year.  They don't fit either Jensen or me...

I'll be there Saturday- Maybe Friday if I'm lucky.

I'll be at the hotel Friday night with Dan and Brett, wheeling Saturday and hotel Saturday night.

Going down Thursday night with my tent and have to leave Saturday morning, have a wedding to attend.

It's been a couple months so I'm guessing it's about time you drown another truck.

Bets on if AAA brings the truck, takes the truck home or both...
