Re: Thompsons
Sat no good for me, working til around 12 or 1ish.
Should be all good for a shiney up there at the mo ? hasn't been a great deal of rain. My truck is also my daily so don't wanna bang it up too bad..should be pretty well set up although i havent had much of a chance to play with it yet. seems to flex fairly well, and seen a little bit of mud which it handled no probs without even being in low ratio
