I am willing to take you on higher rated trails if you and your truck are ready and if you have spares after we do our job entertaining the Vets.

The T does have trouble at one spot with these steps I high centered and I had to get pulled but other than that no real issues.

If I was farther along in my build I'd be happy to do more. But since I'm not that's why I offered to be tacked on to another group. Not looking to be the driving force on what trails are picked or to hold people back. That said I'm looking forward to seeing you all in a couple of weeks.

BTW - thanks in advance to all who are coming to this event. Many of you are coming quite a distance during challenging times. I'm not a part of WfortheW organization but I wanted to say thanks. I'm sure it means a lot to our wounded heroes.

All the trails picked are virtually the same type. We are not allowed to run more than a 4 with these guys. All trails are 3ish. A stock jeep on 35's with open diffs went through them on a test run Monday. We will work on getting you in the same group. Can you provide me a list, first and last name, make model and color of Vehicle your driving? If one person can compile the list and send it to me I will get it to the trail committee. Also be sure you do not miss the mandatory drivers meeting Saturday Morning. I will be there early and we will have campers all around us. Any of you are free to join us camping. We are a family friendly group, quite, and easy going. We will be in Campsite B.

Hey Guys, this just came up and I wanted to see if you guys where interested as a website or club in doing this. I know times are tight. We had a 100% disabled vet join us last year. He owns a military inspired theme Jeep. He is in San Antonio. I have been trying to get an answer out of him as to whether or not he would be able to come to the event. He stated today, finally that he had gotten into a real bind and just could not save up enough for the gas money and a hotel room. If we can come up with about $125 for this guy we can get him there. Let me know if you guys want to take it on. I know it is alot of money and I would not ask if I did not think this guy deserves it. Even being wounded, he still works for wounded. He has brought alot of awareness to the fact that many are coming back and need help.

Well, we need to get him the money. I have a paypal and I can get him a gift card he can use. I have buddy in his area that can get it to him. I will pitch in $20 if anyone else wants to pitch in. I was hoping to find a business to help out but so far I have found nothing.

I do not want to post his name for obvious reason and he did not want any help. He never asked. I did. I will say this, he was an MP at FT Hood and made a few high profile types of busts. He was injured I believe in Afghanistan. He owns a Jeep fairly unique Jeep.

Bodanno@aol.com Give it as gift. I will post it here to keep a running count of it. I will go in $25 as well. If I come up with a biz to cover it on this short notice I will refund the money. Please do it as GIFT so the fees are less. If there are any fees, I will cover it.

So right now, Accounting
Stouttrout -$25
Bigunit -$25
