I cant say dont dune your ride home cuz well that would make me a hypocrit.. Since i dont tow anything and usually stay w/ friends i usually have a way home if my sh*t breaks and i can always get it later or have a wrecker outta baker come get it and not have to worry how am i getting a toy hauler home or trailer for that matter!

EY3BA11 Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 i have to keep my duning to a minimum... Gonna have to start replacing some parts soon!! not gonna be fun or cheap. Quote
Vegas FX400 Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 my wife kept tellin me to stop last time we were out......but i was DRUNK, so i didnt listen Quote
EY3BA11 Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 My wife doesnt care if i dune my truck.. I break it i pay for it.. Plus she enjoy's the rides thru the dunes.. More incentive to get a buggy of some form so she can come along more often.. Quote
