Trailvoy got bought verticalscope and killed. Everyone moved to gmtnation.comand offroadtb.com. Most of my stuff in on those.

The IFS is doing well actually. Upgraded to 3/4 ton straight tierods and they are doing well now. Found a place that reman's half shafts cheap and they are doing real well.

It does well in the dirt. Been in several states and through all kinds of terrain. Its not a rock crawler but a hell of a trail/expedition rig. Been chased down by jeep guys at offroad parks wanting to know how I got it where I did. I usually wheel with new JK's.

It was a DD until I moved 65 miles from work, so it is a weekend rig now. Still able to drive it 1000 miles and wheel all weekend comfortably and not worry. Bout 15 mpg still. Not bad for 35s and near 300 HP and being un-aerodynamic as shit.

The debate is SAS or build a truggy w an S10.

It does get used. I drive it to and from trails and all over the countryside exploring. It has been to George Washington National Forest in VA a few times, WindRock TN, Badlands in Attica, IN, Redbird near Dugger, IN, and lots of other places. It always surprises people and takes good care of me.


Some of the pics I really like...
