Just finished a 1600 mile business/ weekend away trip. I was in Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin for business. Then stayed in Wisconsin for a weekend of hiking and I took my mountain bike with me for some rides.
Rails to trails in Madison area of Wisconsin are amazing even on a 29er trail bike. Awesome lakes and small towns. Saturday night after ride, rode bike to small restaurant/winery and sat on patio enjoying a 80* evening overlooking a perfect Central Park.
Sunday afternoon on he way home I stopped at Brown County State Park just outside of Nashville, Indiana. That was an amazing place to trail ride. Greens, blues and blacks to ride. Unfortunately my new almost completely replaced Pike shock that was leaking the day I got it back, blew a seal in left leg after 15 miles of riding. Rock Shock wouldn’t warranty tge Pike even though manufacturers metal shavings were found in the fork. So, everything but lower legs were replaced by a shock builder out west somewhere ( 3 month wait). This company even forgot to put the rebound knob back in when they shipped it back.
Anyway that ended the ride there, but so many nice people and what an awesome park. I will be going back soon.
The Max Tow averaged 20mpg, one tank at 17 mpg after getting stuck in Chicago traffic and accident interstate shut down.
My rack set up and trunk still working really well (besides the fork oil all over it now). Bike spent nights and work days in the hotel.
I have 39,000 miles now and the MT JT runs awesome. Those small tires and 4:10s allow it to really move for a midsized truck.
Everyone that says this truck is slow is running big tires without gear changes (I know big tires look good, but the small tires feel good).
This truck is not slow, the cloth heated seats are awesome and I didn’t once have the need for a 4:1 T-case I love driving this truck!
