Hi All,

 

Just re-upped my membership so i am chiming in. If wife comes along we will bring the RRC. if not, I'll roll in the Perentie. If we get too many trucks, I would be happy to lead a group or run tail for a second group.Hello Chris Lithium...! You're married now?? With child...??? This will be my 3rd trip on the Mojave Road. I am going to try and do a solo trip in early December to re-locate my dad's memorial stone. it was "rescued" by a Mojave Preservation Society member thinking the NPS would remove it as they did (or were scheduled to) with all the gnomes at the mailbox.

 

See ya,

 

Paul

What about your D2?

The D2 is off with his older brother Rosencrantz (1965 series 2) on the farm in Iowa chasing Steers and heifers around the pasture. Who’d of thought it would make for such a good ranch truck! I’ll try and get some pics and post them up.

 

I just picked up a newer Ram for hauling the 90 along with general needs for a full size.
