Reservation is made for camping on Saturday night at Bodine Field (place we stayed last time). I made the reservation for 15 people (only $2/person). Should be enough. I'm thinking we meet right at Batsto at 9am, i'll check in for the campground and we can head in to the trails right there.

i have a snatch on order from Justin but he doesnt have it in stock.... so i don't know when that is coming. On another note he said he just did an XYZ sensor on a truck and it had NONE of the symptoms that I'm having with my truck so he said he doesnt think that is the problem.... back to the drawing board.

Scratch that I am just going to order one now.

and I thought you bypassed the XYZ? Still havent got to the bottom of that?

which snatch did you order? i have Brian's 10 foot by 5" tow strap that can be used as a tree saver. no i didnt do a bypass on the XYZ yet, i was trying to be civil and not such a hick and actually fix it proper... but now that no one knows what the heck is wrong with it a bypass is looking more likely.

I'll be down Saturday morning, just found out this afternoon I was able to take off work Saturday night, so i'll camp also. I have a birthday party to goto Sunday afternoon, so i'll probably boogie out just before noon.

Sorry guys I need to back out of this event due to schedule problem. Was really looking forward to test my D3 capabilities. Maybe I'll try to go to the Creek w/ you guys end of July (Schedule looks good for now) Personally do prefer the Pine cause its closer.

Pls keep me in mind, if there's another Pine trip. I'll always try to be there...

I would have got the one you got but I found a good deal on the 9000. If I order from Justin I pay shipping and tax making it around $95 and I got the 9000 from a store on amazon for $108.

I also need the fancy one because I dont have a fancy Warn winch
