That brings the count to eight rigs, including mine. The run is still two weeks away.
I look forward to meeting you, beevo.

yeah im going to force my boss to hire someone else. ether he does or he runns the store by himself that sunday.
Hey Guys,
The only thing that I have ready to go (or currently operable) is a stock YJ. Will I be able to nagotiate most of the trails we will be going on.....or at least go around the obstacles.
My other rig is a fullsize and it is out of commision right now.
Never been to DNF before. I definately don't want to be a "stick" in the mud on our first meeting.
Any input???
Also, I plan to trailer my Jeep down. Will there be a place that I can park and off-load without leaving my truck in anyone's way?
Thanks,
beevo

also do you have a cb in your jeep
Yeah, what white 4x4 said. Stock Jeep will work. You can park your tow rig in my yard, but will have to arrive at my house by 8:00 to unload and head out to the meeting point at 8:30. ("Go time" is 9:00 from Busy Bee)
I'm curious, though.....why would you trailer a stock Jeep?

Running some BFG T/A tires presently. Gonna try to come up with something more aggresive before the 17th. I do not have a CB in the Jeep, but I plan on picking up one @ Wally World before the ride.
Meeting in Puckett would be great. What time do you think we would need to meet to be ready to ride by 9?
Do you know if Brian (Clutchee) is gonna try to go. I'll probably see him tommorrow and I will inquire.
Shoot me an e-mail or PM with your contact info and name sometime this week so we can speak.
Thanks,
beevo

hey beevo you still comen
Still planning to make it guys. Won't know for sure until @least the middle of the week. Got your number Josh.....thanks. I will let you know either way by Wed./Thurs. so that we can make arrangements to meet.
Res.....
Prefer to trailer in case of breakage. It is stock, but $h!t happens
. It would be a long, limping ride back to Morton from Laurel without a tow rig.
I'll let you all know ASAP.
Thanks,
beevo

But what if the tow rig breaks?
(Just kidding)
Josh can get you to my place. You can unload there.
Just for the record, I haven't sent anyone limping home yet. I have helped fix a couple. They weren't limping when they left here.

no but i pulled rather hard to the right afterwards.
That's cool, Thanks for the thought anyway.
Funny you should say that. Reminds me of when a buddy sold a 1984 Chevy Military CUCV 1008 1 1/4 ton truck that he got from me to a guy from Colorado on ebay a couple of years ago. The guy drove all the way from Colorado in a Jeep Cherokee with a 16' tandon axle trailer. The GVW on the CUCV is around 6800 lbs. Needless to say the guy had to load his Jeep on the trailer and hook his trailer to the CUCV. And if that's not enough........for those who don't know about the CUCV.....265/75/16 tires with 4.56:1 gearing and a Detroit in the rear with a 6.2 natural asperated diesel.......screams @ 50-55 MPH. Never heard from the guy again......he may still be enroute back home for all we know.

Lol! I will see you Sunday, then. Plan to be at my house by 8:00 AM to unload. We head to the meeting point at 8:30. "Go time" is 9:00. I posted the itinerary on mississippi-mud.com

Hey Guys,
Regretfully, something has come up and I'm not gonna be able to make it on Sunday. I was really looking forward to meeting you all and doing some wheeling. Hopefully, I will see you at Grey Rock and make some rides at DNF in the future.
White4x4, I have your number if things change in the next day or so.
