I figured since the other thread started out as talking about making a club, and what clubs are available, we should have a thread that's just dedicated to setting up trail runs.

The title says it all, and it'll be less cluttered.

So, the 9/18/10 Run to Potato Ridge was a success!

Next item on the schedule is Logandale on 10/23/10 according to McRoberts. Seems like we have a few interested parties! Who all is planning to attend?

If there is anything in the meantime, or someone local wants another rig to ride with them, just post up and see if anyone is available!

I love the DMV. No, really, I do. Sitting here for an hour and a half is so much better than... Well, anything. Did you know that if you go on the DMV website, they have estimated wait times? Pretty sure that 30 minutes was wrong. I am also pretty sure that the 16 year old kid sitting next to me that "can't wait to get her license" will die of old age before her number is called.

Best part of the DMV is watching all the 16 year old jail bait run around.

wait what?

Trust me it is WAY better now then it used to be. When I went to get my license the DMV was still open by the Texas station. We got my number then went to see a movie. Came back and was still a ton of numbers before mine so we went back to the Texas and went bowling. We would check back after a couple games until it got remotely close to my number. It was literally an all day affair.

I always wanted to jump up and start screaming like I won the lottery when they called my number at DMV. Never had the balls to do it though. Would be funny.

So today started out ****ty. I had to get up early to run across town to pay rent. Then came back to start to take apart the YJ for the lift kit that is suppose to be here today. Cleaned the garage up a bit and go to jack up the jeep and my jack decided today was the day that it was gonna crap out. I have had this jack since i was 14 and never let me down until today. So i hit up harbor freights site and they got a 3 ton on sale for 89.99 that was 139.99. OK cool then seen some 6 ton jack stands on sale for 39.99. OK well thats more then i wanted to spend today but o well. I check my email and got a message from HF with coupons for the jack 79.99 and stands 34.99. ok so i guess i can do that. Swing down to HF and im pulling my stuff into the cart and some one hits me on the shoulder, its a buddy from work. Well i guess he is a manager and told me to have him called up front when i get done. So i get up there and he knocks the jack down to 55 and the stands to 30 and i got jack oil for my old one for 5 bucks. Cant beat that right there! lol :)
now i know who to call when i need stuff for the garage :)

Saw something pretty funny today while I was at chapman getting my oil changed. They had an srt grand cherokee on the show room floor. The sticker price was $66k and the adjusted chapman price was $82k. It just made me laugh thinking about the cars that you could buy around that price range. http://www.chapmanchryslerjeep.com/Las-Vegas-Chrysler-Jeep-2012-Jeep-Grand+Cherokee-SRT8+4WD-12J531.htm that's the price of an M3 or an S4 without the quality
wont sell for 82k, they just do that hoping that somebody from out of town will come in to buy it because they have like the only one in nevada or something.

Somebody local will buy it for like 60k.

I am lucky... my wife has to go to the dmv because of the military waiver. She normally goes to the one off of decatur north and I think the longest she was there was 30 minutes. When we got the jk we sat down then they called our number.
That is the one that I went to. 3.5 hours later my number was finally called. Got to the counter only to be told that the lady that called my number was new and didn't know how to do a title transfer. WTF?? I wound up waiting another 20 minutes for the lady next to her to finish whatever she was doing.

Perhaps, but it would never have the class that your wagoneer has. Mine has function, but yours has form in spades.
lol, and it has the exact function I want from it.

I played on the rocks with my old TJ, had fun, but went a different direction this time around.
