    Enough

    It seems like a lot of these have been posted under various usernames in the past. Oh, it looks like they went away. Thanks moderators.

    The first thing is a moderator needs to delete all of their posts. I don't click on junk like this and as many posts they have done, it justs clutters up the site.

    Somebody needs to get Hashunview out of here. I won't click on a post to hit the moderator alert button. I don't know what this person is up to.

    [YEAR 7!] Quit our jobs, sold our home, gone riding...

    Gene, I understand about riding in the rain. It was on a short ride but when I got home my hands were dyed black from the gloves and I had to empty the water out of my boots. Stop and put all of my rain gear on and be soaked while I did it or just ride home? Either way I would be soaked when I...

    HOW-TO: DIY Kill Switch for JK Wrangler

    Why not just put a hidden toggle switch on the wire going to the fuel pump? The KISS method.

    Time for another flatty expedition build!

    Good, another flatty around here. Your body doesn't look any worse than my 3B did before I started on it. Just a few weeks of cutting and welding. A lot of people go with the 3Bs because of the extra space under the hood for the motor and what ever you think you can fit in there like tools...

    1973 Wagoneer - Full Size Camping Goodness

    I wish I had a picture of that dumptruck with the white lettered tires. He probably could have me laughing from four cars back.

    Gone to Moab! Well, not really...

    Yep, I've spent many an hour out there sitting on a high rock with a beer watching a sunset and a few mornings watching a sunrise wishing I had a hot cup of coffee.

    5 People, 3 Generations, 1 Vintage Jeep - Exploring the San Juans for Fall Color

    The last trip I had with my father was a father/son weekend on a friends property North of Buena Vista. Three fathers and five young'uns. Just eating, shooting, drinking and some 4X4 action. Unfortunatly the land owner and all of the fathers have passed but a friends son holds an event every...

    2013 Jeep JKU Sahara- Project: Hi-Vis

    Yeah, check out the front of the frame and shocks. I watched a friend ride over a 16" boulder on his Goldwing on a ride. We talked to a good biker,racer,builder, friend about it and as far as the frame goes, just check for paint cracks first. I hope you can get back together. I'm sure there are...

    2013 Jeep JKU Sahara- Project: Hi-Vis

    I never laid my Harley down but I seemed to get a few scrapes on the lower pipe from canyon bashing. On the other hand, I went down several times on the XT550s, usually just lay there and laugh at myself after making sure I wasn't going to be burned by the exhaust pipes. All three are gone now...

    My short 2 weeks vacation to Cameroon in West Africa

    A friend worked out there many years ago and a friend would drive him to the airport when he went on rotation and pick him up on his return. He sort of wondered why the border crossings went so smoothly. The driver was smuggling diamonds and had all of the guards bribed.

    White letters in but a nice set of hubcaps. Same as is on my Commando.

    Help me to NOT fail

    That could a fun toy but what if the fly is parked on your knee or a friends face? Fly smacking sort of became a science for my neighbor and myself. When we were roomates, he would sit on the toilet with the binocs and watch the spider that was under the kitchen table. I think the only use we...

    Utah, San Rafael Reef: The Squeeze

    I enjoy seeing your posts. I've been heading out there for over thirty years but usually head further South. I'm also spent over four years in school for geology so the rock formations interest me. Thanks.

    10 Days on the Road. From NC to CO, UT, and Back!

    You did the Rim trail, nice. We used to call it our warm up trail. Everything we had could do it in a stock form. A few years ago a few friends did the trail in what looked like a stock CJ5 and a CJ7. The guy in his Toyzuki was amazed that they made it up there. He didn't know about the front...

    10 Days on the Road. From NC to CO, UT, and Back!

    I drove that trail back in the '90's I was in a semi tricked out Toyota PU, another friend was in a stock Nissan PU and we picked up a couple in a stock CJ5. Interesting trail but we all made it with only one winching event. Well, it took two winches to get Bob out of that situation. We didn't...

    Wander in the Mild Mild West (of Scotland)

    I should go over there some time. I looks nice but I'm from one of the bad clans. I'm also related to the Sherman and Covingtons. I hope the animosity between the Campbells and Stuarts is better now. Actually, my last name is Colpitts so maybe I could pass as a person from England, except for...
