Yes, there are a large gathering of Mormons here. Most of my neighbors are Mormon. They do have alot of kids,average 6 or more. I feel a little left out sometimes since I only have 3 kids. Very nice people. Strong family values. But I dont think I could handle all the kids. My 3 already run me ragged. But hey alot of them drive EX's. Heath I see you live in Idaho. IM from Boise, Id . We just bought a place in Kamiah ID, Hopefully we will close sometime in June or July. Where is Rigby, Ive heard of it but not sure where you are located.

HJ that is a dumb ? . TL I am not sure. I might look at Nitto's. I like the look. I heard offsets can be a pain in the a_ _ . I have bushwacker flares ( 3in. ) on it now so I wont have to worry too much about tire sticking out from body. NJ is a real stickler for that crap.

TL do know anywere I can see 37" tires on a 6in lift for an X? Your truck looks awesome with the 8. If I can get the 37" on without switching out all for leafs that would be ideal. I really dont use the truck for offroading. Just like the way it looks. I have an old beater (78 rusted up bronco) for that.

NJ. Have you looked in the gallery on FTE. If not Iwill see if I can find something.
I would stay away from Nitto,Toyo,Mickey Thompson tires. There great tires they look good, but they wear quickly. Rubber is to soft. My wifes F150 has the Nitto, She only has 14,000 mi and the tires look like they need to be replaced here shortly. They have awesome grip in dry and rain. I always used BFG AT and Mud terrain. Great wearing tire and somewhat affordable. I Am running Procomp Extreme AT now but they are pricey. 430 a tire. they seem to be wearing ok they do have a 40000 mi guarantee on them. I would stay with something with a 40000+ guarantee on them. BFG 37 12.50. 17 cost about 276 at Discount tire here. Dont know what size wheel your using. I had 35's on my 2000 EX with the Fabtec 6in lift. No way I could run 37's with a 6in lift. It would hit the bumper.

How do you figure that is a dumb question??? Do you know where all the Mormons live??? If you don't like my questions ignore them, it wasn't directed at you anyway and Todd didn't seem to mind answering it...

Rigby is in SE Idaho... I'm halfway between Idaho Falls and Rexburg... Oh, and not all Mormons have big families, just most of them!!! My wife is one of 6... We've only got two so far and I can't imagine going past three to be honest with you...

Relocating to Kamiah. We are buying an RV Park. 150 spot rvpark 8 cabins 21 room motel and a cafe. We are going to try another type of life. Get the heck out of here, were going from 4 million people to a town of 1200. I need to slow down a little, take it easier. Before I blow a gasket, Thats what the doc tells me anyway. the place is called Lewis-Clark Resort stop by sometime After July and do some fishing. there is a stocked pond on site and across the street is the Clearwater river.

Ohhh... Maybe we can rent a cabin for a weekend or something, have a little vacation... That could be fun... I'll have to do some poking around on the net and see if there is any info on the place...

Nice looking place... I grew up in a VERY small town and these are the kind of places that I grew up working in... Short order cook and server at the Cafe and rented hotel rooms and such... They're neat little places... I'd love to come up and check it out after you guys take it over... Will you be open year round or just seasonal???

www.lewisclarkresort.com IM going to rework the whole website when we take over, Its all contingent on us selling our home here in AZ. Homes havent been selling that good anymore so we will see, She has accepted our offer, and were working on getting the loan , so we will see what happens.
