It’s one of the side washes off of Fish Creek Wash. Pardon my redneck directions here (I are one), but you come out of the wash that Diablo Drop off is in, turn left, drive for half an hour, and it’s the second or third wash on the left! ??. I’m terrible at watching mileage, and get places on...

Looking to head out around 0900 Saturday, hit the Mason Valley Truck Trail via Banner, roll down to the S2, run Diablo Drop, and find a nice quiet place in Olalla Wash to camp for the night. Sunday will be a breakfast and roll home, unless you want to go hiking with the woffman5 clan ( a...

Eh, I’ve got 82 acres in north central CO that I’ll gladly let the fuel waste in current long term storage containers be buried on! Those things are no joke, and no expense spared. I guess that makes me an IMBY!!!! Oh yeah, and price of DEF still bad.

Thermal efficiency at it's finest. Mobile nuclear power plants, and I would imagine those that are stationary see I mean, technically they are the same species, just one makes it to the ocean and one doesn’t. And I think that they are “salmonoids.” Oh yeah, price of DEF bad….

You mean Rainbow Trout?!! At least that's what they are called in Colorado.... Man I miss fly fishing in the cold ass head waters for the CO river in August. Nothing like sliding off a bank into 37 degree water on a 75 degree day!

While my experience off-road is limited to about two weekends (Bosch CP4 failure), running the factory MOPAR lift was a substantial improvement over the stock ride. The first trip out was in Johnson Valley (where KOH is run). On washboard with the 37s (Nitto Terra Grapplers) the ride quality...

Make sure you are using fuel conditioner! My 2021 JTRD is sitting at Kearny Mesa CJDR waiting on the high pressure fuel pump and injectors, and has been for a month because the HP fuel pump crapped itself and stranded us in Corral Canyon! That's another story all together! We frequent...

Man, I really don’t know of much there. I think there’s a truck trial down there, but I’m not sure. We’re going to roll out there tomorrow in the 4xe JLU and try to get lost. We might end up at Corral Canyon, but I’m still gun shy from getting stranded by the JT out there when the fuel pump...

If you drop the camper, Valley of the Moon is a good ride.

I'm just hard on equipment! I don't plan on keeping the factory fenders on long term, so some rock rash and paint left behind are no big deal to me. Even the wife has accepted that if we use them, they are going to get some scrapes and scratches. We're always down for a trip, set up for...

The squeeze is doable, just find the line. We got through in the stock JTRD with a little rock rash on the rear passenger fender and passenger door handles. There are a few good videos of how folks have lined up and made it through with and without damage on YouTube. We did way more damage to...

Fuel pump it is. No timeline on parts, just "we'll call you weekly to keep you updated." I knew the CP4 was a piece of sh*T, but after having three other vehicles with it, I thought the bugs were worked out. Guess not.

9171 miles when it died. July 2021 build date, and we bought it in August. Hoping the parts come in relatively quick, but buying a 2015 Focus just in case they don't!

9171 miles when it stranded me, the wife, and two kids on a trail last Saturday. Three hours of winching over rocks, two 8 miles trips on a tow strap (one Saturday night to the staging area and one Sunday morning to a nearby rest area), and a trip on a roll back later, we made it to the...

Kearny Mesa CJDR has it, but they "can't get to it until the end of the week, at best." Meaning, "we have so many broke EcoDiesels in the back we can't get our heads above water." Should know more next week. We take the dogs with us when we go camping as well! They protect the kids from...

Well, a great day ended fairly shitily. Pretty sure the high pressure fuel pump shit itself. We had turned around on Gunslinger and we’re headed home when the Gladiator died and wouldn’t restart. Thankfully we grabbed the recovery gear out of the 4xe, lots of winching over rocks and a tow got...

Little bit of a late notice here, sorry. Plans changed, so we have some free time this weekend and are going to go ride around at Corral Canyon for a few hours tomorrow. We'll probably do Sidewinder and Gunslinger. Bronco Peak is a bit tighter than I like, but if someone has done it before in...

Similar here going to 37s on stock 3.73 gears, and I drive like an a**hole as well!

Brought the Gladiator in for an oil change this morning and they are working this recall in parallel. Honestly, having had several vehicles that run DEF (PowerStroke F350 (x2), EcoDiesel Grand Cherokee, BMW 335d), the DEF consumption is about on par with what the PowerStrokes used. Granted...
