Sounds like quite a few rigs (non-Nissan) from Houston and some from Laredo will be coming in this Sunday for a huge run into the Den.

'F your interested show up and wheel your stuff.

Plus see Stormtroopers new look.

meeting at same time and place (10am, whataburger)? wanna go, just got to get it pass the wife. group size similar to the last run?rick and jasun, gonna make it? also, possible... getting calmini steering and sl in jan/feb so have questions. hopefully see you sunday.

Yup...I'll be there...Hey, Patrick, What time?

no go for me. I have to work the next... 8 days in a row.

I think everyone's meeting at either Whataburger or Wicked around 10. I maaaaay have to do something that morning but that's at like 8 or so and should be there with no problems.

Talk is it's gonna be big with a BBQ (meeeybe).

Ooooh can some people fill me on on this whataburger location, i'm sportin' a 4x2 but i'd like to come see some nice Xterras and meet some of the XOC people

horns, from I-35 and 410, go west on 410. exit ingram rd. right on ingram rd. whataburger on right side.

wouldn't mind meeting at whataburger before run for food. wife would be happy that i took her out to eat....

let me know.

edit: news says rain sunday, but i have a better chance with the olsen twins then they have at correctly predicting the weather.

Hey Horns, if you don't feel comfortable taking your X out there...you can leave your X at Whataburger and ride with me, I'm usually solo when I go out there...It's up to you...

Baaah, we'll take Horns' X to Wicked and leave it there.

Food sounds fine.

As for the weather, when was the last time the weatherman got it right on the money? :rolleyes: Whenever they predict rain we usually have a great partly cloudy day.

I'm good to go! now to find something to do tonight for new years

I can't go sunday but is anyone able to go some time tues, wend, thurs, of next week!?!?!

not me...I work those days...unless you want to go a night run...

Nope. Handbrake and I go back to school on Monday.

damn you all with jobs :p :rolleyes: ....I have a job too, just not so many hours any more

I am down to go this time

but like horns-i am a 4x2 as well so I am not quite sure about heading in but maybe there will be others riding solo but if not I still wanna check out some rigs.

Wicked did my shackles and t-bar crank about 2 weeks ago.

If you see me out there come say what's up I will be in the pewter x with the wicked offroad decal in the back.

Another fun excursion today in the mud, it was a great turn out...I got there a little late, but got to do alot...the Rain came down pretty hard so we had to cut it a little short...overall, it was alot of fun...Thanks to Wicked Offroad for providing the Munchies afterwards...delicious stuff....I'll post some Pics later...

Kick ass day! Had lotsa fun! Just got home. We went upstream after y'all left. Only like four rigs and man that was a lot nicer than tagging along with twenty plus trucks!

Can't wait for the pix! My danged battery was out on my digi!

Yeah fun time meetin you guys, i'll have to plan to come into town for events. Had a good time!

damn it sucks i woke up pretty sick and thought since of the rain it may have been put off

Been thinkin about all the fun I missed. Fishermom left me parked in the lot at work. I nearly got beat with a shopping cart. Wish I could have got dirty with some of my "X" cousins.

Heeeey! Don't forget the Frontier cousin!

We had a great time, those that couldn't make it. We'll have to get together and wheel soon.

Yeah...there were alot of Trucks out there...I myself rather go when there's not too much...less hassel...and I think you can cover more ground, and play more...

Here are some Pics

had a blast guys. even when stuck in mud had fun. agree that smaller group is better. sorry becky and i cut out early, but becky was expecting sun and warmth and got cold and rain. she didn't dress/prepare for that.

Hey Clint, email me those pics that you took, to my home email address if you will....

Good shots Rick! Can't believe I didn't check the digi batt before I left the house. D'ohhh!

rick, sent email couple hours ago. let me know if you got it.

Anyone think i could get some of those pictures to show some of my xterra friends who aren't with the community?

Hey Horns...I have some Pics I could send to you...Do you want me to send them in the email that you have in your profile?

Yeah that'll work rick, appreciate it

Dirt Guy

I remember this spot, but I remember it being a bigger pain in the butt because there was a tree really close on the other side

Yeah the tree is still there but for some reason doesn't look like it in that picture...

dang, thought someone knocked it down or ran into it or something. looks like you guys had fun, any more pics?

Here's a better view of that "missing Tree"...
Rick

You guys had some nice flex at that obstacle.

I was very careful the time I went through that. I think that would be a much easier spot with sliders and no rain

a couple more shots from last Sunday...

yeah...it was very slippery out there after some rain came down...Patrick had to pull this one bronco out that was slipping down a ridge...I think a little bit more and he would have gone down that ridge...

hehehe i wonder who that crazy longhorn kid is in those pictures

Man Rick! You seriously should've seen how close that tire was to sliding into off the ledge! Another four inches (easy to do in that snot-slick mud) and he would've rolled. At the least just onto the side.

Yeah...That's part of my fear when Wheeling out there when it just rained or raining...I think of it as Ice...sometimes you have no control of your vehicle, it's just sliding every which way...scary stuff...I kinda like Rock instead...

Hey Patrick...We may have another Offroader added to our Excursions...some new guy who just started working with us,has a pretty nice looking Jeep, and is looking for some places to go...I told him to Join us when we go to The Den...

Tell him to get a Nissan! :p

Tell him to get a Nissan! [/QB][/QUOTE]

yup..that's what I told him...Hey are you'll going Wheeling tomorrow, it should be a nice day for it....

damn you guys, quit wheeling when I can't.

Don't know what we're gonna do. I wouldn't mind wheeling but...might need to take Handbrake out and do something.

That's cool...yup, I remember when I was Hitched...The Boss comes first...

now that i've washed the truck, vacuumed, cleaned, and did windows, it is now time to get it dirty again. how about the 16 or 23rd? my boss is lenient since the den is closer than barnwell, cheaper, and doesn't require a vacation day (since work sats). hopefully some austin folk make it down.

I'm game for both of those dates...I'll bring along this guy that just started working with us...he has a Jeep, but he wants to join in...

I might be game for both dates. Need to talk to Handbrake to see what's going on.

Sunday's a go for Stormtrooper.

I can go saturday. my first saturday off in months. wont know about sunday until friday
:rolleyes:

You better getchore hiney down here and wheel that truck. Need more Nissan's to show up the Sheep.

So, are we all getting together for a run at The Den on Sunday the 16th?..if so What time? and I guess we will meet at Whataburger?

will be at whataburger bright and early at 10am. this way becky and i can get some breakfast in.

10ish sounds good. The 16th.

I'll let you know friday(night) if I am coming. about 75% no on this one right now

Fun!!!Fun!!!Fun!!!...Had a Good Time today over at the Den...Dirtguy, Shiner and Jasonf and myself along with some Jeepers were out there from morning to around 4...did some stuff that I never thought I would ever do...I'll post some Pics later...

Yes I had a fantastic time. Wanted to say thanks to everyone for the help in spotting me over some of the obsticles. I'm still new to the off road game but with all the experience from the others they made me feel like it was nothing.

I certainly had a blast. Though I would like a bit more work under the X before I go through that rock bed again

I think you did great Jason, even with a Stocked X...I felt you were a little uncomfortable at times with the Rock stuff, hey so was I, but we had alot of experienced guys out there that know the Terrain pretty good, so that kind of eased my tensions a little...hey, Jason...do the "Poor man's Lift" for now, that's what I did...some Rear Shackles in the back, and some cranked-up T-bars and take off your Rear Sway-Bars, and you will be surprized how much clearance and Articulation you will have...Patrick helped me with the Schackles and the T-bar twist...maybe he can help you out...
