Very nice!

Hmmmm, I may know the guys that made that Prius Plow sticker, lol. (Love it!)


Very true! Definitely a few others on the rig, too. In fact, I will be hitting you up for some new stuff. I am stuck on the couch healing from a knee surgery and have some time to contemplate my next decal mods.

A place for my stuff. On top! Specifically, a method of holding it on top.
Raingler custom nets for the Gobi. I wanted a net specific to the back section to hold NATO cans and another for the rest of the rack. Raingler FTW!

Black Xs unite!!


So explain the Prius thing. Inquiring minds must know!!!

That's right girlfriend!

Priuseses . . .

1. I travel a fair bit for work (a lot to Silicone Valley = lots of Priuseses) and have had a few as rentals. I have nearly died a few times in those death traps.

2. I have noticed a certain demographic who drive them that drive me nuts. No offense to anyone here who may have one. Since you are here you probably don't fit that demographic.

3. I have had a few run-ins with Priuseses. I.e. they have run into me.

I have developed a certain disdain for them in general.

Winning. I know ONE cool person who drives a Prius, but I'm biased because I've known her since I was like 13. Hahaha.

Well, that doesn't mean that I don't park with my bumper pressed against their back glass and send them anonymous messages with pics of my decals.

Had some fun last weekend with some fellow X'ers, former X'ers (MadMike), and some jeepers. Coney Flats/ Middle St. Vrain trails near Ward, CO. Water crossings (100% legal) and rock gardens.

Thanks, Kevin! There are quite a few of us from Colorado - including a large contingent from the Springs - and we do trail runs nearly every weekend. Check out the Mountain section here on XN and over on The New X. Come join some trail runs!
