Gene, good to hear from you. We were all worried around here as said before. I had to back into my local booze store and I didn't hit the Harley behind me. It was a 107 CI. I used to have and 80CI Harley that would out run anything up to a 104. I know the right person to do the help.

I would do what I could do for you as I have the books but it is the wrong era of FGs from mine.

Another nice write up and pictures Too late now but there was an auto parts store on the South side of Moab I believe at that time it was a Checkers. They had 4X4 parts everywhere. I was told that they stock more 4X4 parts than anybody else in the country. I was talking to the counter guy and...

As always Monte a great write up and pictures. I don't know how many times I have driven to the TOTW and Elephant Hill. It seems like you found the camping spot East of Dewey Bridge. There is also another road about a mile North of TOTW. It takes you to another overlook. Not too tough of a...

Thanks, I've been going out to that area for I over 30 years so the pictured brought up a lot of memories. I didn't do it in a danged Toyota, I did it a proper vehicle, a CJ3B. Just keep going on.

Nice report and I like your attitude.

Old line from an old Firesign theatre album. "I pity the poor people that have to run their furnace in the summer because they can't afford air conditioning". Odd things are stuck in my brain.

Thanks. You are creating an adventure for yourself. The only place I've seen the Northern lights was from the last place you would expect UT.

I'm not sure I would choose Estes Park as my final destination. I would head to SW CO instead but have a good trip.

It's good that you are back. We were all worried about the 2 of you.

It's not your leg, it's your weight that has to be checked. I have had to have a 5' cheater to break loose the lug nuts my MF. Let's see 5' pipe with a 300 lb guy on the end of the pipe and I had to jump on it a bit. Over 1,500 Lb/ft. They may have been over torqued a bit. My neighbor was...

My neighbor went through 2 of them, admittedly they were a cheap version and him and his son never returned the torque knobs back to 0 when they were done. We were putting his transfer case back together and we could tell that they weren't doing the job right. I shuffled home and got my old...

It's your Jeep, so do as you wish. I bought a Commando done in old style camo. All I can is that is a lot easier to touch up the paint after you do some welding and grinding. You really have nothing you need to match for paint. My other Jeep is Rattle can white. Thank you for the service from...

Too bad that your trip sort of fell apart. Nebraska does have some good places to go but I admit that my last few trips across the state were driven at night. Kansas is not any better. At least you drove through my town on your way.

Yes, you can get an old VW into places you probably should not be. They do slide across mud well and at times I had to stand outside of the door and stomp on the floor to take out the bends that going over too big of a rock caused. I did tow a Scout for a bit on a mountain trail, he broke an...

Yep, i'm an old guy, I've driven around on the trails around Moab for decades in my 3B and I dinged a muffler end once. Learn how to drive the thing first before you throw lots of $ at it.

There were a lot of things that were figured out long before we were born like window shades. It is a good idea Jeff.

I'm sorry to say that a lot of shops don't know their hole from an *** in the ground. My neighbor has had several Ford trucks and he has gone off to the dealer and after 4 days in there they call to say it is fixed. Half way home, same problem. At least for his diesel he has found a good shop...

No wife or kids but I have certainly picked up enough sippy cups and refilled them for the neighbors kids and my nieces.

I was out this morning and my neighbor was out pushing her grand daughter around in a stroller. A baby needs 2 cup holders? My cup holders in the 3B are 2 end caps for 3" PVC pipes bolted to some sort of a seat cross member. I need to cut in a bit of a slot for the handle of my coffee mug to sit...
