Sorry about the fisheye look. I'm trying to find a program to remove it.
Most of our vehicles that were out on the trails are in this video.
I could pick out jpg moving his ambulance for a brief moment.

Jpg...I'm still trying to figure out transferring my gopro file to different sites. I'll look through my videos to see if I caught you. This has been a slow process with the stuff going on at home and work this week!

Rise and shine!!! We're leaving the surprisingly quiet Barkeysville, PA. (Ha!) Headed to Danville to get some brews and grub at the Old Forge Brewery for lunch. Fun, fun!!
Can't wait to see you and Terminus, as well.
I was just messin' with you about the windows and stuff. I've been heeding all of the advice I've been given from you guys about getting ready. It's been a great experience just preparing the truck. If the wheeling is half as fun as it was working...
Does that work fall under the quadruple PM check?
Over the weekend, I pulled all the rear axles and the driver's side hub cap to check the bearings and re-torqued them to spec. Everything looked great.
I park the truck about 80 miles from my house at my buddie's father's farm. I left the farm...
Well, I've replaced all of the fluids and filters. I've greased all the grease points under the truck. I broke down 5 of the 7 wheels to replace the o-rings between the two piece rims. A new air drier was put on last spring. I drove it over 3000 miles last season. (We sold our Mustang because we...
I know, right? I checked the driver's side and it's OK. I spent 18hrs and 12min to fix it between Friday and Saturday. I was able to source a bearing, a race, and the sockets an hour and a half away.
The Big Man upstairs helped me on MANY levels for this one.
Here is the after...
Yes, it is...
Come on, man! If I'm driving my 5 ton from Chicago, you should be able to make it in a M1008 from Connecticut! (I'm just ribbin' ya)
So we'll see you there, right?:)
Thanks for the tips! Yes, we will be sleeping in the cargo area of the truck- in a tent. I don't have a cargo cover, so everyone can rest easy that they won't have to help me with the cover...
I'm really looking forward to meeting all of you! I've watched some of the videos of past rallies and...
It's the only vehicle I am bringing.
I'm going through the vehicle right now taking care of odds and ends. Hopefully my prep work will pay off. I put over 3000 miles on the truck last year and didn't have any real issues.
I have driven it every other weekend this winter, trying to see if any...
It's official. My vacation request has been approved!
My brother and I should be there sometime Friday afternoon- God willing...
We're in for Sunday as well.
Both of us are excited about the journey. Roughly 700 miles one way from my doorstep in my M923a2. Magical.
