We had a great time as well. Good to meet you, Castlerox (PM me with a phone number).

No one had to get the 'strap of shame' (tow strap) today. We were able to meet up with Haztoys in C.K., as well, always a pleasure, however brief, and I was able to demonstrate the REAL use of a Montero on the wide open dirt road back to I-17, that being high range 4wd with the auto trans in 2nd gear and the foot to the floor, passing lesser vehicles in a cloud of dust. The trusty '89 brought us all the way back to my driveway then decided it had enough and split a little cooling hose and left a trail of tears/coolant before we shut it down. It'll be fixed in the morning.

We got to wheel with new friends and one long-lost brother (good to see you, Ryan) and had terrific weather and trail conditions. What a great run.
