Didn't even make it out of my neighborhood before we had issues.

I think I saw you role through Hiawassee ... or clayton... cant remember one or the other but I do recall seeing your ride with the absent doors in town. when I see a plate with White County written on it I think: "damn...prepare to drive really slow now".

LOL about the plate I feel the same way. We drove up 129N to Beasley's Knob and then on the way home we went threw Helen. Everywhere we drove on the road I was pulling the trailer and buggy.

I want to check those out sometime. Hoping to get my winch mounted soon so I can really get into some trouble.

Ah must have been in Blairsville. I went to Auto Zone for some goodies. Funny that I am bouncing from town to town so much that I can't remember which one I was in lol.

Glad it is not just me with that plate lol. People who live around Hiawassee view the mountain roads as high-speed passes between towns... most out-of-towners didn't get the memo.

I use to be that person screaming around the Mtns when I had my Turboed CRX. Now I just creep around the mountains in the Jeep.

Yeah I just mounted my new winch on. My jeep was down when we went, so I took my girlfriend's TJ on 6" lift and 35s and my buddy had to winch us out. It's pretty fun; we will need to meet up and hit the trails sometime

We definitely need to meet up and ride. I like going out with a small group it makes it a lot more fun than just 2 trucks.
