    You are looking at the wrong guy if you're looking to meet "good people"

    That boy is corrupt, a liar, cheater, and he will steal everything out of your truck that you need for the rest of your trip!!

    Me on the other hand, i'll replace everything he steals so we can mitigate the impact he will cause you :D

    It was a mid sized class a I took our tour in and Yellowstone was one of the places I remember most about appreciating that awesome big front window! Take your dad out in your tundra and show him how you drive!

    What I was thinking is that if you took your dad out bombing at 80mph in the tundy he might never make another comment about your driving ever again, lol!

    What are your plans in Moab? If you don't plan to renting a Jeep or something out there, that is a lot of windshield time for not a lot of "fun". I know Bakersfield is hot as hell, but Moab at 104-110*F sucks.
