I'm think me and Zane are gonna run down for the weekend. Looks like several events and classes scheduled along with some great give aways. Would love to have some more come so we could represent TRS. I will as always be talking up the best group on the interweb haha. It is not free so I understand. But I can get you 30 dollars off with a code of your interested.

Made it to Georgia and got camp set up. They had a fire starting competition going on once we got settled. After that they had some give aways going on. Tonight they gave away a roof top tent, a set of recovery boards, a smitibuilt air compressor with accessories, and a few other things including a large camping light on a pole. Tomorrow they are giving away a set of tires( you guys know I'm gonna put all my tickets in that box) and 2 more roof top tents and several other things. Bo wheeling just a group camp meet and greet. The folks from Tread Lightly are here and gonna give classes and have a clean up ride. I've seen 3 other Rangers and have informed them of our group. Appears we need to do more on social media because 2 of the 3 had never heard of TRS. Hopefully I can convince them to join. Told them this is where all the cool kids hang haha

I bring this for starting fires... I'm sure they would disqualify me. But even damp wood doesn't refuse.

When you go to these things and talk to other Ranger owners, find out what social media platforms they're using and let me know.

Yeah it's more of an Expo with several vendors.
Who are the vendors?

Yes sir. I promote the TRS everywhere I go. Not just Ranger owners but everyone who asks about the truck as well.

They had several vendors. Probably about 75 to 80 rigs. There's a picture of all the vendors. A bunch only showed up today and packed up and left after the give aways here

I need to reconnect with 4WP's. They use to sponsor our rides back in the day.

Did get to go out do a little exploring with Classic City Overland. Really cool guy. He was in charge of teaching trail recovery. He took a small group out that evening after the give aways on a ride showing us some local history. This was a thriving town with about 2000 people in the early 1900s. All that's left are a few remaining structures.

Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.
I knew an arsonist that used those ;) I prefer some crumpled paper and a few sticks :D
.... you shouldn't be arson-ing either you know
