Yeah, i'm a sissy. I work to much to ski and I don't like show wheeling so I just kind of vanish from the outdoors until spring!

no option for "screw till spring", so I guess I'll rip the rig apart. oh wait, it isn't put back together yet, so that should make it easy, right?

Recovering from knee surgery, so no skiing this winter for me. Also, no cycling indoors either. But I am going to rip the rig apart and put it back together. And by that I mean fork over a pretty penny to lift my X!

Well, with my rig being as it is, I guess I'll have to throw some Ford parts at it. Front axle, rear axle and the like, this winter. :D

Nothing here... I'm just a couch potatoe with no drive. The batteries are dead in the remote so I watch one channel all day long.

Actually there is usually something greasy in the garage to play with... I think that is my calling for awhile.

Other than basic maintenance on the X, nothing scheduled. The TJ will be getting new gears, preferrably 4:88's with Aussie lockers.

What's the matter with "Thunderdome"? Wow, call the place where a guy lives Saudia Aurora and he goes nutzo!

We are also looking for a new house. This winter I plan on selling the Fronty and getting a new older truck.

"Thunderdome" is a state of being- a constant caged match if you will which is the way I feel most of the time career-wise. 'Nuff about me. Dude, you live in the mountains- why move? Come live in my complex- the dudes are cool, the HOA's flexy, the girls are hawt and we're lightyears from your shop:laughing:

Well I cant ski/board because I can not risk hurting myself and not being able to work. So I do like to hit the snow covered trails but who know's how much of that I will be doing. I just bought a boat so I will probably be spending alot of time with her.

No No. I have lived in Saudi Aurora. I have no problem with "your part of town." It's the wife who has lived in the Centennial bubble all of her life.

i do just about everything except stay at home.
before new years we hadnt had snow here so me and a friend took the jeep all the way to canada to snowboard and we went wheelin.

i love winter wheelin and camping - people think im crazy but you gotta get that fire goin with a little gas
and my rig is always ripped down so im always doing repairs...but snow wheelin when they are done.

My plan is to mod this winter. I've already started with a bed mount tire carrier, a CO2 tank, and another ammo can tool box. Still on the list are a new rear bumper, snorkel, front skid plate, some fabbed rock sliders, and moving my lights on the roof rack down into the front bumper. I really want to do a new front bumper but I don't think I'll have the time.
