Sorry ..i wasnt quite happy at the time bc the smell was horrible !!

Franko I was behind you, so he is not talking about you. My go pro camera has about 1k pictures of the back of your bronco

when you smell things one the trail first response is I hope its not me

He's referring to a grey eb w/ like 31 x 8 and I saw this guy drive and he wasnt treading lightly

Btw Franko thanks again for the clamp even though you refused payment.The line held longer than I expected

Franko- it definitely wasn't you- sorry for the confusion.

I don't want to blast anyone on here (or not on here). I would just like to believe he wasn't thinking. I was pretty aggravated about it and the wife said I needed to focus on getting Shep's truck out in one piece. She really does balance me!!

Normally I would have said something to them on the spot... at least about getting off the concrete- splashing the water can be useful on occasion if the water crossing is protected.

Well since I broke down I missed being with the line of Broncos doing the Dragon. So I searched for the later time slot and found them. I gotta say I was pushing it hard I was actually pretty inpressed how well it did in those corners.

ShepCJ71s half cab was initially behind me, didn't realize he broke down until I was around corner, so I stopped to let the lead broncos know to stop. Glad it was running again the next day! Nice window grafting, btw.

The dark grey/ black rhinolined rig then ended up behind me and was blazing the creek crossings.

Mountain Rams green bronco did a stand up job towing him to the Dragon!
...could have been any of us. What a great group!

I have been considering one of those Go Pro cameras... Not too pricey but I am waiting to see if I can afford the Wi-Fi remote version that is supposed to come out soon...

I would like to see some photos from yours... I saw you had it mounted on your windshield.

That cab is pretty trick.... I loved everything you did with it.... the sun roof is awesome... making me think seriously about trying something like that with my hard top. You did an incredible job.
