So this was fun. Somehow I sheared the studs off on my Tundra. 
The pavement princess 
Never would have thought this would happen. . I was able to get new studs and get it back together. Not really happy with Toyota right now

So the good news is
The 40 did great Untill it didn’t Was driving on the freeway yep you read that correct and it was cruising along just fine and then it felt like it ran out of gas So I pulled over and put gas in and noticed my sniper screen was all red 
. And just said no data on each thing 
. It would turn over but not fire and was just Dumping massive amounts of fuel . We towed it to the gas station and I went to start it again and it almost fired then when Ca clunk . It actually broke my starter off 
. Cylinders where filled with fuel . Next morning I turned. The key just to see the screen again and it was like nothing ever happened 
. Holley will be getting a call Monday morning and we will get this resolved 
. When I get home I will drain the oil and put a new starter on and see what it does . Worst case 
may be a best case. We will see

So let’s get to the fun stuff 
. After my 40 decided to take a nap I jumped in with my friend in his 40 so I could help him and spot our other friend behind us . Both did great . After being on the trail 12 hours we got back to camp . I jumped in my truck and took off to go get my 40 . It’s about a 2 hour drive . Not more than a mile after I hit the pavement. 
. I get pulled over . She was super cool. I had a tail light out on my trailer I had no idea . Anyways I told her I was going to get my 40 sorry I looked like a homeless bum bla bla bla and off I went . I get to my 40 and it’s still there 
. The problem was I could not get my trailer backed up straight to it . No problem I can winch the trailer over . I turn my winch on and . My battery is dead wtf I have no idea why . Did I leave my radio on Who knows . Ok ok. I unhooked my truck and used my jumper cables , now I was able to winch the trailer over and winch up the trailer. When I was winching up the trailer it stood the trailer up this was to be expected but when it came back down boom 
my tongue Jack I believe this is the 4th one Bent . Ok no worries. The Jack is the last of my worries. Get my hi lift Jack and we are good to go 
. When I was pulling out I did not see a large rook on the passenger side and it caught the trailer . Ugg It was pitch black I could see nothing this entire time . Finally got it clear and get to the pavement again . Umm what is that sound. Wtf. Turns out I bent part of the fender into the tire . Couple pushes and kicks and we are off and running I noticed 1 of the rear tires looked low so I figured I will just hit the gas station 1 mile up the road. Go slow . I get to the gas station and the air is out of service . So I unhook my truck again and use my jumper cables and use my ARB. And pump up the tire . By the time I got back to camp I went straight over and got breakfast. At this point I decided to just go home a day early. Just take my time and cruise home . So we all said our good byes and a few of us headed out early . Before I left I checked all my tires and filled them up on the trailer . As I got into Truckee I noticed the rear tire was low again . At this point I am over this trailer . ( I was over this trailer the last time I used it also ). So I just drive to the tire store ( I knew right were it was because I was just there a few days ago getting lug nuts ). 1 pm on a Sat and they are closed. . Ok. Reno is 30 miles So I drive to a gas station fill the tire again and take off . I made it to Reno and Tire is flat again . Stop
At a gas station and fill lt again , this time I noticed where it was leaking and it would not stay inflated. I bust out my tire repair kit and go to work . 2 cans of slime 4 plugs and 4 dollars of air later I make it to discount tire . Get a new tire and I am off again It’s now about 4:30 . 22 miles out of Reno I watched another tire come apart . The entire tread just came off . Tire was still inflated though . At this point Discount was closed . Ok there is a Pep boys 17 miles away . I called and they had a tire. Now I just had to make it 17 miles in less than 1.5 hours . So I drove slow on my new steal belted tire and we made it . . 2 girls come out and asked if I could take the tire off . Umm sure . So I got the tire off and they put the new one on and I reinstalled it . It’s a little after 7 pm now . Let’s not forget I still had a light out on the trailer I should have been home hours ago already but I still had a 5.5 hour drive . I got home around 1:30 this morning . We made it . What a trip . If I do not cut that trailer up into small pieces it will be a miracle. Today I need to figure out how to get a dead 40 off it . And back in my garage. Then I can start to figure out what I have to work with . Other than all that. I had a great time. Really had fun in the 40. . Being able to drive it to town or when we just drove over to the Rubicon was just fun .

Fun
What an adventure, thank you forposting so those of us stuck home can live thru your stories, great. Soory to hear the sniper reaked havoc. Maybe the alt isnt charging and the low voltage took out the sniper, just a thought... the same low volt maybe killed fuel delivery as well ?

Oh it has plenty of fuel. To much in fact. Alt was good I will dig into it this eve . I already called a few places and if it’s worst case then I am going to a LS based engine. Just trying to figure out what I am going to do for the next 2 events coming up fast
