This weekend I proved the Jeep Truck was a real truck. Loaded up just about 500 lbs in the bed.

20 - 2X4's 8 ft
6 - 2X4's 12 ft
10 - pieces of metal drywall studs and track - 8ft each
6 - LED can lights and housings
150 ft of wiring
All the supporting miscellaneous things to get my basement finished.

Next run witll be for Drywall and insulation in a few weeks when I get time to it. I suspect I will need to make 2 trips since I need about 22 sheets of drywall and each sheet is 70 lbs.
picture or it didnt happen lol:giggle::giggle::giggle:

Took the fam and Mr. Beau on a hike above San Luis Reservoir in Central California. Saw lots of Tule Elk on the way up to the Basalt campground entrance. Climbed a berm to help Beau get in the bed.

Hitting the dunes at Oceano -- Pismo Beach. Great weather ! I am running 14 psi of air and this Jeep can do anything in the dunes. I am having a great time with the manual.

I am running 14 psi in 4WH with off road plus, sway bar disconnect, and holding the traction control button down so I get stability control off and traction control off. This gives me lots of tire spin when I need it. This setting is perfect for the sand. Based on your suggestion, I will go down to 13 or 12 psi today, but, I do not really need it. Great views out here.

Miss that place! Went to school out there, lived on the beach in pismo and took my leaf springed 4 banger YJ out there at least a few times a week.We would run 5lbs on 33”s doing really silly stuff and never once poped a bead! I eventually stepped up to a coiled 4 banger TJ which didn’t do as well out there as it liked to bottom out the ass at the bottom of large hills and lawn dart off the top. Air pressure is everything in that sand and you will be surprised how much you can do in 2wd squashed. Excited to spank some V8s and diesels up comp hill with my JT!

That YJ was way lighter so that worked well, the heavier the ride the less air down.
