looking for sympathy nklr

[Xeno]

Good day Mike, Nice to meet another 250 owner up here on the wild frontier. I can sympathise with you completely. I unpacked my 01' from storage nearly three weeks ago. Since then, we've had six inches of snow, rain, sleet, some more rain, and just yesterday, three more inches of snow. Sigh. I did find out though that the stock tires SUCK in mud.
