Deals Gap Gear thread 2006

Since Mike has been overwhelmed this year with work a few have stepped up to help in planning this truip this year (thanks to all that have). I thought I would step up and start the old gear thread so we can make our lists of what to bring and get input from others of what else might be needed.

We had a bulletcam 2 yrs ago and could not get it to work till the last day. Clayton figured it out. I think you had to set it to VCR or something like that

You mean to dig your truck out. It is a Dodge.

Some day after I spend some $ on a lift kit and big tires I will still not take this on any serious off road adventures.. IT's too nice..
Too Big yes, Too heavy? I have No Idea?

We will be loading everything up Thursday night then going to get some grub and A beer or two! Then home to rest and departing Friday morning, so we can get to Bristol VA for a normal dinner time and relax a bit.
