Oh, yeah that is pretty far. I do hope i get snow down here, it's fun to play in and drive in. I want to build a nice big snow man and move it to the road, then drive the bronco through it.

So here is what i did today, out in Auburn they have an xmas tree farm where you can cut your own tree down We decided this year we would go find that perfect tree. I think we got it. Here is what it looked like in the bed of my ranger.


And This was after trimming and getting it standing. It is about 11 feet tall or so, the biggest tree i have ever had.


It was quite the adventure, my step dad was freaking out the whole drive home cause the half of the tree hanging outside of the truck was bouncing a lot.

looks good, but i would have had the tailgate open while driving it home, it would have been a little more stable cause its supported farther back. but it looks like you had it tied down pretty well, so its all good

Yeah we thought about dropping the tailgate but we weren't sure. Once we tied it all down we felt like it was fine. It took 200 feet of lights to get it covered...
