Re: Took the burb on a fieldtrip!
I have been coming here from the time I was a baby. just so happens my new grandson is here with me took on his first ride over to olds hill(a dune where people gather) in the 66 today. This is my first trip out after loosing my close friend, riding partner and sister to cystic fybrosis 8 months ago. The fact is this trip here is to honor her life. We are reflecting on her life. I will be using the sub. To transport people through the dunes who normally dont come out but are showing up here for the event.

I was totally impressed how well the suburban did offroad. I was not sure of the condition of my tire gauge at low pressures so I kept it at around 20 psi(rather than my normal 10 psi rear and 15 front). Even at a higher psi than normal it was able to go all the places I needed it to....... And some it didnt need to but was really cool that it did. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Took the burb on a fieldtrip!
Sorry to hear about your sis, But what a great way to be honored!
When I was building my truck, everyone said "so when are you taking it to Glamis. I replied " everything I own contains Glamis sand, and this truck is staying sand free!" Now you got me thinking differently... Some Skat traks for the rear, desert traks fro the fro.... NO! I'm not gonna do it... Maybe once... NO!! Ect. |

this is what you get something is being missed in your link possibly there are other things listed and when one clicks on them ,you get;" Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (rtsp) isn't associated with any program." ron |
