So after my fantastic trip home from TN.(https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/...upton-to-ca-ongoing-picked-up-gecko-jt.50922/) I have continued to do some day trips. Didn't want to add it to the other thread. So I guess I'll add them ask into this one until I do another major trip. I have also given it the name Kermit since everybody said Lizzy... like Lizzy the lesbian... not Lizzy the ?.
So far I've done Pismo which was all the rage from that thread (https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/so-there-i-was-at-pismo.52001/)lol. Yesterday I did Pt Reyes not really anything fun and then today I just did Yosemite since I have never been there in the snow just sitting summer and fall. It was pretty amazing to see. A red wrangler got a parking ticket for sticking out. Bummer for the Asian lady. But she seemed to be having a great time until she saw the slip... Jtrd did well there was a few other gladiators all gas. 1 with chains on all 4 1 with just rear ones. I lived in Tahoe by Rubicon so I was just tires. 21.5 mpg for this trip 25. 3 for yesterday's trip. Figure the difference was from the 4wd and idling from the traffic. Is pic heavy sorry.

This week was supposed to be the Nevada Challenge, but since it got canceled maybe for forever @freetoroam and I decided to do a weekend of day trips around Reno NV. I worked the night before so I didn't get into Tahoe until 2am but 830 am rolled around and I met him at his place and off to Carson River hot springs we went. This weekend was mostly to check out and review the exitrax that Carson @Mid-Atlantic gave us. It being a 3 day weekend means there were plenty of people out...

We met some cool guys. Free to Roam tried them out and he said you can feel the tires grip to pull you out. They do stack nicely and are decently light weight.

Today we did moon rocks to get my rocks off. I'm more of a rock guy than Rob. It's a small park but it did let us get flexy. Thankfully we didn't have to try out the ARB plug kit Carson @Mid-Atlantic gave us.
