Geoff, what did you decide to get? VIAIR 90P?

[Dante's Taco]

Geoff, what did you decide to get? VIAIR 90P?

I'm on a wait for: the SmittyBilt MV50. Prob. not as good quality as Viair, but I'll be the test subject I guess. Also on back-order <grrr> for weeks. The other one I was looking at was the 2724; looks just like a Via300P - N/A till April! If the MV50 isn't avail by end of Feb, I'll change order to Viair 90P

The Smitty built MV50 is the exact same Q industries compressor I bought in the US. I bought 2 compressors as I found them in a Costco for $39.99 US and every where else they were $99 and up. I have used the compressor many times and it works great the only thing starting to wear is the battery clips but that is an easy fix.

geoff

i sure do geoff and will have it in the truck with me for all to use :)

[Tarzan]

Funny how the ultimate portable air compressor blew a diff and now all the chatter about needing compressors. I think we all need to buy Gary a drink or wings next time around.

[Sprockett]

For the longest time I had no idea what you meant in this post but now I get it.

[Tarzan]

I could have worded that better but the jist is there. I just got a call regarding Sunday and I'm out for that day as well. I am not a Super Bowl or NFL fan at all but a friend needs help due to the excess orders they get on that day, so anyone else realise they will be missing the big game (I'm not even sure who's playing)?

[Dante's Taco]

Nothing in the NFL can compare to watching my Riders blow it in the last second. :(

[aristo-crat]

Im in if im allowed. Except i dont get my winch till next week or so so if we do the winter trails ill be needing a winch up the 4 big hills at the end of the run to margaret lake.

[S/C '03 taco]

Im in if im allowed..

the more the merrier my friend....not sure your real name but your on the list,see you sunday in cochrane

[aristo-crat]

haha, Kyle.

[Sprockett]

You've been out there recently and know you can't make these hills? What is it about your truck means that can't make these hills?

[Sprockett]

Also FYI, there is a Jeep club run on Saturday the 6th...a big one b y the looks of it. They are thinking about 3 groups. Not sure what that means for the condition of the trails the next day :)

[aristo-crat]

I have big lugged MTRs, that can't grip on ice, as well as no front locker and a 97 HP.
haha.

that means all the trails are going to be torn apart and iced right up....stupid jeep drivers and their heavy feet,lol

no offence ryan,lol

[aristo-crat]

hm well considering that, its probably going to make it less fun for you guys if i go so...
and plus its superbowl day..

[Doc McCoy]

Looks like I'm in.

[Sprockett]

:)

[aristo-crat]

I just need to make sure, there is someone with a winch coming along right? Cause i wont have mine till the 12th.
If there is, and he doesnt mind winching me 3-4 times possibly, ill come.
I just dont want everyone to be mad cause im holding the group up in case i cant get up the hills.

[oriontaco]

Looks like I'm in.

ha ha see you tomorrow with my new plan for your truck!!

You have a surf right? Does it have decent (and accessible) tow points (or shackle mounts)? Do you have a receiver for a hitch in the back? If you've got any other recovery gear ... bring that too. Tree straps, recovery (not tow) straps, winch extension line (optional) and 3/4" screw style shackles.

If you've got the tow points, I don't mind towing/winching you around when needed. If you don't have any recovery gear ... you'll probably need all of the above anyway when you get your winch on the 12th. Might as well pick it up today. Most of it would be available at National4wd of if you want to save a few bucks when buying it all at once, Princess Auto.

[Doc McCoy]

ha ha see you tomorrow with my new plan for your truck!!

Excellent.

[FJeff Cruiser]

Looks like I'm in.

Nice...

[aristo-crat]

Ive got recovery points front and rear, 2 3/4" shackles, a recovery strap etc, ive been wheeling for a while, its just the icy hills that get me with my procomp MTRs.
but ok if you say you dont mind then im in.

[Dante's Taco]

Doc, You bringing Max again?

Geoff

[Sprockett]

[aristo-crat]

Well i got my bbq, but 2 could be good :D

See you boys tomorrow!

[Doc McCoy]

Doc, You bringing Max again?

Max is pretty much my navigator / co-pilot. She'll be there. See you all soon.

[aristo-crat]

Wow, awesome awesome day! I was pleasantly surprised by how well my truck did, didn't get hooked up on any hills at all. Got tons of pictures ill put them up ASAP.

Can't wait till the next run.

[Dante's Taco]

Yeah, the Hilux rocked!

Weather was way better today than last Sat. - it was clear, sunny, warm all day. No wind.

Just a great day for being outside in the winter.

We forgot Sarah's flip video at home :mad: so no video clips - oh well.

This run was way more technical for me - I needed the experience.

Thanks all!

[oriontaco]

It was a great day for wheeling, trails were pretty mild with the exception of a few nasty spots. No real hang ups, great spot for lunch great group. Next time hopefully I will be able to take my truck.
