Try Lake Owyhee State Park south of Ontario too.
Watch out for houseboats on the blind corners.

Just got back from the test drive. The new wheels, 255/55/18 tires, and 2" spacers felt amazing! No vibrations! and with a 5" wider track, the van now feels confident while cornering. It's a huge improvement.

You should turn that into a camper.

Looks like a fun drive, and only 48 miles away. We will totally be scouting out picnic spots this spring.

Thanks!

I waited 4 months for a set to come up on craigslist for a good deal. I got 5 wheels for $150. Now all I have to do is get a 5th tire, then I can have a matching spare mounted on the back. I think that it's going to look great!

I changed my handle to EAGLE5. Matches the car. Also the truck will hopefully be sold next week. Just waiting on the buyer's credit union to get all the stuff they need.

That's where a good buyers broker comes in. He/she would be willing to preview houses for you that fit your basic criteria and then take pictures and e-mail them to you of specific concerns/features that you may have.

See, still easy - ALL () you have to do is find a broker that is willing to do that -
