Better keep it at home and in the shop.

Don't want it dinged up so soon after all of your hard work.

Still need to get it down there for an alignment so might not have much choice and would like to show it to a few people I know in Dryden and take it to a couple show and shines. It's going to get stone chips eventually...

Don't they do any road construction down your way..? The only gravel roads up here are logging roads that I don't travel..
