Yeah i suppose so for the last 8 and a half years ive been telling her i can only be gone 3 days before the animals need food and water and every year im forced to stay 5 days every year i have atleast 1 die either from lack of food water or coyotes which are getting thick and hungry the colder it gets . So My livestock will suffer too that will be eating at me the whole time. Along with the dfw area has been known to have christmas tornadoes so there is the gamble of do we have a home to come back to.

I can relate, being an old cowboy from years back. I currently have chickens, they can go 3 days with the water and food supply but only if the skunks and coyote's don’t get to them knowing no one is around. We must be responsible for our animals. Besides, I have been told that after 3 days, guest begin to stink. So on day four I am on the road again. :-)

Put SDHQ billet ABS guards on my Tundra. Also put in my Dometic CFX75 fridge running off of two 100 watt Renogy panels.

Installed a new set of shoes on baby girl. :)
I'll get more pictures when the tire mould release film wears off. They're looking pretty ashy right now. lol
In the bay at America's Tire.

Those wheels are perfect for those tires. Are they new too ? What tire did you end up buying, it looks sharp.
Pathfinder I
Thank, Jim! The wheels are not new. I've had them since the beginning of the year. They are 17x9s which is perfect for a 285 or 295. I went with the Milestar Patagonia M/T. I needed something more aggressive with a 3ply sidewall so I sold my Wildpeak AT3W while they were still worth a good amount.

I may be kicking myself for not waiting for discount tire to get the Patagonia's stocked before I bought my Goodyears. The P's were my first choice and had really good ratings as well as being a bit more affordable. Maybe we can compare wear between the two down the line.
Have a Merry Christmas Justin
Pathfinder I
I think you made a good choice. So far these are louder than my Wildpeaks and honestly more tire than is needed for most overlanding trails. I have delusional episodes of rock crawling so I wanted more protection.
Merry Christmas to you as well, my friend.
Got a lot of work done on my bumper build. Added a 2" receiver, and did a bit of welding for the tire carrier.
Pathfinder I
Thanks! I've welded plenty before, but this is my first time doing something for my rig. Very happy with how it's turned out!

Do you have any idea how much weight you have added by the time you have two gas cans ?? and spare tire and all that heavy steel ? Will you have a trail trailer or camp trailer ?

Just went out to the driveway and gave it a hug. My neighbor saw me, so I went back inside.
