Same here. Yay snow......

I have friends in/around Centralia. Pretty area. Too much rain for me.

It does keep it green. So I guess that's a plus. I've lived in much drier climates (twin falls ID) and really enjoyed it, but I do miss year round green.

Twin Falls was actually on the list of move possibilities just haven't made it up there yet.

Great area. Wonderful people. Wasn't much work in the early 90's. Not sure what it's like now.

Looks like fun man, thanks for sharing.

So after many bashes now and much experience with the thing do you feel like you got your moneys worth? Sketer still good value for what your getting?

Absolutely. Most issues I've been working through. If you couldn't already tell I'm cutting my teeth on this as a basher. We're both growing on the daily. I'm figuring out how to rotate this better and addressing the weak points as they come up. The body mounts are strong AF but I've had issues with both fronts and one rear mount coming loose. Longer screws drilled through the posts seems to be the workaround. The bent rear tower is no big deal yet, the A-arms may be the only problem and I may end up switching to the cheaper steering links for longevity of the Ackerman and steering link pivot joints.
I've blown north of 150 on parts alone for my Bigrock and it still keeps eating diffs, slipper hubs, shocks, axles...
Although I'm building up a small inventory of rescue parts for the Sketer, so far nothings prevented me from taking the Sketer out. ( oops, the body is nearly toast. Yeah, the body sucks)...wish they gave us two, then it would be worth it.
