It still looks pretty mean when it's blasting through Baja though. I kinda like those wheels because, I believe.. if I'm not mistaken, they're forged aluminum wheels. They also make the truck stand out when every other white Bronco runs stock Alcoas (also a great looking wheel but it's just really common to see).

I do have a picture of it at near full bump and it does make it look pretty 'gangster' and almost looks like it was lowered.

They are strong wheels for sure, but I share your opinion in the styling not being my cup-o-tea.

APP made a couple other designs that looked better IMO.

Ill see you all I. The morning!

On an unrelated question, those of you with the Rubbermaid action packer totes, where did you get yours? I tried Wally World and tarjet last night, but all they have is the flimsy stuff I stored Legos in as a kid.

Found a pair of 8gal ones at Lowes. I wanted a single 24, but can't find any local. I think the smaller ones will work out better. Easier to re-arrange multiple smaller totes than trying to fit a bunch of stuff around a single larger one.

I saw them at REI, but they tend to be pricey.

REI is one of the highest level financial contributors to the Sierra Club... I try and avoid hopping there at all costs.

Let's not let that detract us from spreading the word about how important boycotting REI is :!:

Now make sure you all get some great pics for us who can't make it!
