Welcome to OAUSA, Dan !!!
You'll find a great group of folks here, and we have a lot of fun out on the trails...
If you don't mind driving down to San Diego on April 10th, we're having a Meet & Greet at the Ham Radio Outlet there from 10a to 2p...
And mark your calendar for OAUSA's Summerfest 2010 - June 24-26 in Big Bear, CA
And as for your modding addiction, well, I can help you with that

Dan:
Your timing could not be better. If mods are in your blood, give some thought to joining us for the meet and greet in San Diego and our Summer Fest/Field Day in Big Bear.
Welcome aboard!!

Welcome,
I will let John give the heads up on the trails as he has alot of knowledge on them. My question is what experience do you have driving off road? Many times it isn't the rig as much as the driver. Pick good lines, know where each tire is and the skinny pedal is not your friend-generally. Oh, one last thing. If you drive a toyota, don't ever let John navigate.
Good Luck, Steve
