Hey man that sounds like fun! I have to work a double. Im hoping to get off around 9. If i dont make it then i might have to go out some other time maybe in a few weeks.

What time are you planning on going?

I live right by the Veterans too. Ive probably seen your truck around! I wish i could but theres no one that will cover a double for me.

We need to start planning another morning trip, maybe next saturday! Ill be game for that one! And i have a buddy out in Lakeland that I know would want to go! He's on here MiniMonster. His trucks has 35" BFG TA KO's so we might have to give him alittle help if it got bad out there!

Sounds like a good time! The only thing is that Rancho is in Zephyrhills off of state Rd. 54. (I went up there last week..."more fla muddin thread"). Lakeland has the motorsports speedway and mud pit (Have a few pics of there too). Two different places. Rancho has some trails, LOT OF Mogils on the way to the holes in the back. Also lots of ATVs. Unfortunately my truck has to go into the shop from the last time I was in Rancho so probably won't make it out. Should be great though since it has rained up in Zephryhills about every day for the last week!!! Watch out for some of those deep holes...they've swallowed up entire trucks before! I'm one of the members of that NTORA myspace website listed above. Good fun!!!

u no my bad i just say its in lakeland cuz i take I-4 and i get off at exit 32 which is the lakeland exit and then i go north i belive i turn left after i get off I-4 and its about a 20 minute drive and then you turn left on 54 and its about a mile down if that on the left...sorry if i confused anyone...and i have only been to rancho three times during the day but all in all i have prolly been there over 10 times i hate the ride back to the holes it should only take ten minutes but you have to creep at ten mph or else youll be in pain lol and so will your truck it takes almost 45 minutes to get back there lol if i was there during the day time i would have more pics...but if you know the ride out there if you know were washout it and that big hill thats were my signature pic was taken it was the best place to see what kinda flex my truck had
