    I would say you did ok with the purchase. You should go to MVMVC.org an think about joining. Even if you dont join you should come to the Weare NH rally.

    Weare NH Rally July 29-31

    The show was great. The dust was a little bad, had to hose the jeep off yestarday to clean it up some. The saturday after noon trail ride was great other than getting stuck on the hill for a minute, at least the humvee didnt make it on the first try as well.
