Wow very cool trucks!! I like the picture of Stretch in front of the shelter on the ground. He towers over it!! I'm a big wuss when it comes to mud. I'm impressed at the Deuces mud performance.

Hey maddawg, maybe its the camera but your jeep looks great!! What color is it? Did you tow it with the windshield folded? I wish I was there to watch it blow out. :p

Trust me, it looks better than it is - it's just spray bombed, and it's over the rust bubbles. Just to make me feel better about what I'm driving. Color is Khaki, from True Value spray bomb section. I towed it with the windshield folded, but AFTER I lost the glass and the w/s was in the upright position. The glass just fell out into the front seats, didn't even break. Just one of those things I guess - have to call the windshield company to put it back in. I was driving down the road, about 30 miles into the trip and I look in the rearview and see window weather-stripping blowing in the breeze! WTF! All I could think was someone behind me got a good laugh out of seeing that!

Haspin 08, What a great time. :D Thank you to all who attended and helped make it happen. My wife and I had so much fun. The Haspin Acres woods was an excellent place to have a get together! Pete said we were always welcome back. It was a real pleasure to meet so many of you there. Thanks to all! [thumbzup] DH

I sent about 2hrs pressure washing the M62. I found out at haspin that the front axle is not spinning, so I'll have some checking to do. I'd rather not have all that mud in there while working on it. Had about 60lbs sitting on the ground once I was done!

Overall a good time. Kinda of bummed about losing another jeep engine. Here's a couple of pics, have some video also. The road train performed better than expected, and the deuce ran great all the way home.

Good group of guys, having a good time!

They call me "Mitch the B*tch" "Back Door Doy" would be the guy with one of the yoders runnin around with us. I'm still waitin to get pics back from my buddy. I will post them as soon as I can.

I hear you need a special liscense to tow more than one trailer. Is that true? We are thinkin of hookin my jeep up to my buddies ford with a car hauler, and hookin a trailer to my jeep.
