Local Legend Don't Call It An S10

Couple of trips ago I pulled over to take a leak, 2 miles into the trail. Opened my door and it nearly fell off. Somehow the upper hinge pin had fallen out. Luckily, Mr. Rouse gladly let me borrow some hardware to work for the rest of the trip... and two more after lol.

The wind noise from the door no longer sealing was annoying, so I finally ordered a new pin and got it on. Big update on this thing, huh?

I have an entire new fuse set that I'm going to put in the truck that lights up when they've popped. Aside from that, going to do an oil change and nut n bolt check before going to Pismo this weekend.
 
Yes the dunes are fun when you know them. They have a lot of razor backs and drop offs. Always run the dunes towards the ocean since the other way has steep drop offs because the wind

The one time I went there to drive around a guy we met up with drove down a steep drop off and fortunately just blew a bead. His spare was buried under the truck. Rather than dig out the spare, we managed to pop it back on down in the bowl he drove into with a ratchet strap and jacking the lower up on a piece of plywood with a bottle jack. Probably took the better part of two hours by the time he got out of it because he still needed to be yanked out of the bowl after.
