Colorado Krew Hangout

Any recommendations on exhaust shops in the metro area? The dude I talked to at the shop last week said they could replace my exhaust manifold but of course once I dropped it off last night they're telling me they don't really do exhaust stuff like that and I should call an exhaust shop.

I would do it for you but my calendar is booked through the 29th

I appreciate the offer. I called around and all of the other shops said that they could do it, but that OK Auto Repair is the best there is for exhaust stuff so got scheduled there for Friday. And of course it's the building just behind the shop I originally went to, I just completely forgot it even existed its so hidden.
 
Preach. Growing up we learned to hate the ass clowns (err I mean, Texans) skiing too. Jeans are shit for snow gear.

Honestly the Texans aren't even the worst. There's just a lot of them. The worst I've ran into are from weird places like Wisconsin or Nebraska. And Coloradoans can be absolute dumbasses sometimes too. I was XC skiing in Winter Park a few years ago and a group from somewhere in the Midwest came up to the lady at the counter and asked what time they let the moose out in the mornings.

"Y'all know how to ride that stunt ditch?"

Dude, the reactions some people have to what feels like just normal activities to me are hilarious. Like fishing in RMNP and a dozen or so people start cheering when you catch a fish. Or when 5 groups in a row make some comment about how I'm insane for riding some trail.

I was on a field trip in college, we were driving on a desolate hwy in Wyoming when a girl who I want to say was from NM saw snow fences along the hwy. She thought they were bleachers for watching the local wildlife

That's awesome!
My old Navy buddy from Mass thought I was making shit up when he came to visit me in Laramie and I told him "those are snow fences". He also wanted to know where all the people and buildings were. I told him he had all that shit and could keep it there back east.
 
The 4runner did have Texas plates actually. Damn Texans.



I'm gonna have to use that one more often.

fortunate, or unfortunately the only group ride I took in Alaska. somehow i get stuck as the vehicle behind a stock TJ Sahara with worn out road tires, I spent the entire afternoon doing nothing but extracting him for whatever mud hole he got stuck in.
April, so it was a ice water mud muck run

some really nicely well-built rigs, and just as many street rigs that should not have been off-road. when the group made it to the gatekeeper three of us that made it across decided it was best to just turn around and leave

If any of you saw the unlimited adventure, 25th anniversary run in Alaska that pretty much sums up all of wheeling in Alaska. gravel bars and mud

Yeah every single time it snows in the winter I always see at least 3 or 4 cars in ditches with bald street tires. One time my mom had to show a family from somewhere in Europe how to put their rental in 4WD just so they could get up the exit ramp. I've also seen people get stuck in various Park and rides along 40. I just genuinely can't comprehend how people live in the mountains in Colorado and drive a 2wd car. I mean I can think of a few times last season I was having to break trail in 4lo just to get home.
