For those that are intimidated, don't look at my truck, look at Railman's...He has been on every trail I have been on, and he is at stock height with no damage, there are several passes down each trail, I just go for the big extreme obstacles to try and break stuff to give me a reason to upgrade...In the planning stages is a full exo-cage, getting ready to start building front and rear bumpers....

***UPDATE***I just got my D44 8 lug axle homeTime to start building the SAS!!! Pics to come

I thought this was your trail rig, not a 37in IROC 12in lift daily driver

Frank, of course its my daily!!! Who puts a lightbar on their truck to go wheelin?? Well, I would, but thats besides the point...I was lookin for another rig to turn into my trail rig, but I think I will be lookin for another rig for a daily driver, but then I'd have to build that to tow my trail rig, and then I'd have to....

hey gang i gotta know where bouts is this turkey bay place and how many trails are there?

Turkey Bay is the name of the OHV park in the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation area in Western Kentucky/Northwest Tenn. (close to Hopkinsville, KY and Clarksville, TN (Fort Campbell)

it features 100+ miles of trails, and is open for 4x4's, ATV's, and Dirtbikes

the trails are designated under 3 types: Yellow is for stock/fullsize, Orange is for smaller vehicles (jeeps and Ranger size) with few modifications, and Blue is for Atv's/dirtbikes or vehicles where space allows (where the distance between the trees dictates passage)

It'll be a run for you, this is the address to the north welcome center, the OHV area about about 5 minutes away. Depending on how you drive, it'll take you about 8 hrs, but well worth it if you make a weekend out of it....

I know, I was serious, there were two ravines I laid my truck on its side, the first I got lucky and no damage, this trip I did have damage...I like a good challenge as well...Save your pennies, I'm sure we will have trips planned throughout the year...
