I am going on my first out of town trip this weekend and was just gonna check with you guys about what might be a good idea to get or have. I have a winch, spotlight, tow strap, and that's about it. I'm wanting to stock up on some more stuff soon from a list I got just doing a little at a time. Just wondering if there is anything that would really be handy. I will probably grab my father in laws come along just in case.
I have found that toilet paper can be a very good thing to have and a shovel to bury the used toilet paper.

That's what I used to use my empty Crown Royal bags for. Girls needed TP when we were out cruising the back roads. Called it our "Sissy Sack".

The girls were very appreciative that I thought of their comfort. A liter sack could hold two rolls of TP, and keep it clean, even rolling around in the floorboard of a 4x4.

Tp is very important!! Off roading can "loosen" things up.

I hear ya buddy, no need to explain, I know you're responsible. Say, what mod have you done to your P-5 that would get you to 60 if you wanted to?

I have seen that place on line. Would love to see some pics and a review of it. I am from down in L.A. (lower Arkansas) and thought I might make a trip up there. I always have a package of zip ties with me. Very useful.

Mack's Pines was awesome we were there 8 hours almost and only hit up 25 miles of over 1000 trails! There are not a lot of places to pick up much speed and some places are very rocky! There were a few waterfalls that were pretty cool to see and the owner was very nice and helpful. I really want to back we had just found the good places when it started to get dark and we were afraid we would get lost out there as they are unmarked trails. Overall it was a great ride I didn't get many pics unfortunately as I was so busy enjoying the scenery! Had a video but can't figure out how to upload it.
