LOL...yep that was me. I was cruising down the main Trunk road and boy and girlfriend come running out of the woods, arms just a windmilling! He proceeded to tell me how his Dad's truck that he borrowed was stuck and did I know anyone who could help him? So I told them to jump in and we took a hard right right directly into the woods down this deer path or some such... Which led to the bottom of a long steep muddy hill where I located a teeny black truck at the bottom with NO TRAIL leading out but back up the way he went down!



So after I finished laughing and got up off the ground and wiped the tears off my face, I simply said 'Cool' and dropped her into low gear. I pulled him all the way to the top no problem and he was very grateful and very impressed. I suggested he stick to gravel roads...

Awesome meeting you too, Guy! Please consider organizing an outing up near your place. I know a bunch of us would come with enough notice... Maybe in the Spring?? I don't know if October would work or not...you could always ask in a new Forum Thread. Anyways, hope we see you on September 11th!
