I took my new ram out in the desert where I used to take my JKUR and although the RAM can't go where the JKUR did--it's pretty handy and

If you handle her carefulyl--those Goodyear Wranglers (stock tires) are tolable-

Not a real TREK, but at least I got to get it off-road !

Whatever

Looks good out there in it's natural habitat. :victory:
According the weatherman, there is a lot more of the white stuff, and some rain still coming!
I've started work on an Expedition Ark...

Where is that at?

 

[JIMBO]

:sombrero: That's FERNLEY, Nv.-which is 30 miles East of Reno and I80 runs right by it-

We're about 20 minutes South of PYRAMID lake

Surrounded by Desert !

[STREGA]

And not far from Sand Mountain!

 

[toylandcruiser]

I'm from Carson city. I'm missing the storm

 

[JIMBO]

:sombrero: That may be, but I'm afraid you're gonna be exposed to FLOODING starting soon--

Good luck

Man, all this snow is driving me nuts, had to go up and shovel off the roof today. First real winter in 5 years but we so desperately need it.

We build to 200psf Snow Load here. Pretty rare that shovelling required.

Weight isn't the issue, the gutters are frozen solid and causing some headaches.

That truck must be a blast in the snow....:wings:

 

[JIMBO]

:sombrero: Well, it's super comfy and roomy, but-

With the stock Goodyear Wranglers, you have to be careful, because the traction available with these tires isn't stellar-however--

It's a real exciting experience to drive this thing with the 8spd auto/400 hp Hemi/3.92 gearing--(throttle control is a REQUIREMENT !

None of my trucks have been anything likeit !

I rented one last summer with less than a 100km on it. It drove like a race car with that Hemi. I was lucky I did not get a speeding ticket for excessive speed. I was up to 160km/100mph plus on some streches. So much fun!:wings:
