    Is there a trail that you wouldn't run again?

    I find myself swearing off the local trails a lot, but probably because I've run them too many times. It's tough to fill those days/weekends when I feel for adventure but can't get far enough to see something new.

    Tent suggestions

    Yeah, I've definitely learned the value of guy lines in keeping the Kingdom 4 tent alive so long. No specific weight limit--light enough that one person can easily carry it, load and unload it. I believe these two I was looking at are both under 30lbs. Packed size should be small enough to fit...

With my current setup on A/Ts it cruises at 75 mph and handles some gnarley trails. Current equipment: 2010...

    What is your rigs name

    When I bought the Jeep it had multiple stickers on it of avocados shooting out lightening bolts (seriously). So my wife and everyone I wheeled with called it The Avocado.

    Which rig to build and which to sell?

    I currently own two rigs and I want to consolidate and focus on building one of them. I drive a minimum of 25k highway miles each year, but I also spend a lot of time on rough mountain and desert roads with moderate rock crawling. I generally travel with one other person and a dog. Rig 1: 2003...
