    So far the Jeep has been awesome, last week I went thru alot of mud and didnt have trouble. Today was a trip up the small hill 7900 Foot above Sea Level. Towards the end of the week its going to be 9500 ft, as long as I dont drive on the tracks the Jeep doesnt bottom out. If I drive the tracks the exhaust rubs. Today I bought a hitch and small enclosed trailer for tools and equipment, now Im getting this rig set up for work.


    Enjoy

    Ron, I will work out in the field any day over having to be in the office. I work the hours I want, do what I want to do and in the order I want to do it. If I wanna work 40 hours in 3 days and rest 4 days, I can do it.

    Chris I work in communications, we always work in the sticks and hills. They are the only ones who dont bitch about RF and aliens. A advantage to this job is its not unusual to helicopter to a Mt top, use 4 wheelers or Snow sleds and once I even used horses and mules.
