So day 2 down.

After a later start due to someone's packing. Aaahemm @BigRed. But after packing and lunch finally started to go to Maine. Unfortunately no chance to offroad due to the time arriving.


I got to see my first moose. Pictured above.

On the ride up the discussion changed from dating application contents to amount of offroad gear and modifications and their effect on the weight of the vehicle. This has been a puzzling quandary of mine some I first put my truck on a CAT scale a long time ago. After much discussion and bets being made we finally found a scale. And pulled both of our trucks on the scales. ( yes one at time). Both of these trucks are screws and have similar modifications along with a similar amount of offroad gear. Here are the results.

We were both amazed at the results. I will be starting another thread seeing if others will post results and there can be a meaningful discussion on the effect on the performance of the truck on and offroad.


We finally arrive at the "hotel" and pulled up to this. 4 room building with self check in.

I was a bit surprised when the rooms ended looking like this.

Not to shabby for this part of Maine. Now time for beverages and getting some sleep before finding some primitive roads to play on in the morning.

Yes it is damn cold it must be 60 or 62 degrees. I am upset that the shorts and sandals are going in the bag. Jeans will be the normal attire this weekend. Lol

Seriously? 60-62? Try low 40's in the morning and warming up to 60 in the late afternoon. LOL

Found a scale, going to gas up the tank and see what it weighs.
