Planning a road trip from the bay area, but our first stop is in Redding, CA and slowly make our way up north to Bend, OR by I5-N and then 97N. Then cut over to Eugene, OR VIA 58N, then down south to Mendicino CA with I5- S, 199 and 101. Are there any scenic off road detours that are...

I'm trying to tune my CB antenna, but I don't really know of any places that have wide enough space to get my antenna tuned in. Any spots you guys know of?

Since my friends had something last minute pop up, I'm going solo on this trip. It'd be nice to have some other rigs tag along, especially since I want to check out some new areas like Leavitt Lake and Coyote Flats.

I'm actually thinking about heading up there in a week or two.

Is it too hot for you two, to leave your windows rolled down, and have them covered with a mesh so bugs don't come in? This is what I normally do during hot summer nights and I roll into camp late at night/too lazy to get everything out.

You'd be surprised by how capable a stock JKU is. Since you're in SJ, try going to Hollister Hills and have some fun there and see the capabilities of your JKU! Better to go with someone who knows the trails though...

Just wondering... How much have your MPG's gone down? I honestly was expecting an additional 300-400lbs of steel being put onto the truck, and throw in the factor of aero, and I was thinking MPG's would go down at least 2-3mpgs... I know this isn't a fuel economic car/prius.. But I also...

My 2 real gripes with this hidden front winch mount is... 1. Cost.. I'm already near 1/2 the cost of a full front end. 2. You still have stock approach angle. Not a bad thing but... But this solution was something I was heavily debating since I really am not fond of the weight going on.. But...

I think you're right... I didn't really think it would decrease only by that small amount. I was expecting near 300-400lbs of additional weight being put on, and then throw in the factor of bad aero, possibly kicking it down 2-3mpg's... Yea, 5 gallons is quite a lot of fuel. Just wondering...

The thing is, I do wheel quite often, and have ripped my bumper/popped if off, but It still looks fine. Not ghetto by any means. But even though I go often.. Almost weekly, to every other week, the miles I rack during each trail run is a lot... But this is giving me incentives to do it, cause...

In most cases, I go on trails that are either mentioned or recommended by forum members or friends. As for finding campgrounds, as long as you're in the national forest, or BLM land, you can set up tent anywhere, where you 1) Don't cause problems with traffic IE: Park on the trail and block...

The Owens Valley Radio Observatory?

Definitely. I hope others read this and won't just leave their stuff around...

Stock toe hooks... Well shoot.. I've been using those to recover people... Maybe it is a good idea to get a front bumper.. That makes sense. If only the 4th gens had a nice looking stealth bumper, like the 5th gens have. Not really a fan of the C4 stealth bumper... Merp..

I've tried turning the volume knob multiple times to make sure I wasn't going crazy. I'll try opening up the lid, and report back. Thanks!

Are there any places that I can take my friends to go shoot my AR near/in Alabama Hills/Bishop while we're there? Even though it is BLM land, I figure we can't shoot everywhere, since it is a tourist area.... thanks!

Yea, I thought the rear "bumper" on my 4th gen was a bit funny.. It doesn't even cover the full width of the truck.. Thought that was interesting.

That makes sense... But since an aftermarket bumper won't crumple as easy/at all, doesn't all that energy transfer to the occupants of the vehicle?

AFAIK, my friends can hear me clearly when I transmit. But I might need to test this again... Yes, my SWR meter read ~1.2.
