Make sure you bring your recovery straps & if anyone has one a comealong. One slip off the packed snow into a roadside ditch can make for a lousy day. Dont ask how I know this, but having a Jeep with a winch along made things a lot better.

I got you! I have a 33,000 lb capacity snatch strap plus MB has a strap as well. We should be fine.

I've have an Icom handheld as well that you can use for both the Lost Coast runs. So, if you want save your money for a VHF unit. Trepal has a deal over in the garage sale area for a handheld unit or a mounted unit. Plus, I think Nos is going to become a Icom dealer soon so you could probably pick one up from him. I know we'll probably be using VHF for the Nevada run since our group will be more spread out.

cool thanks.

i also have a couple walkie talkies. still waiting on icom vendor status so no radio yet. but with 4 of us i think we will be close enough together to work fine.

I'm in for Saturday! My wife is going to ride with me and be my copilot. I'm down for meeting you guys in Vacaville. At least tomorrow I will have time to wash the dirt and salt of the truck from the last couple days in Tahoe. Nothing better than getting a clean truck dirty.
