Introductions & RME

[FatAzzRunner]

My name is Aaron Eidem, I live in Wichita, Kansas which sucks big time. I love the wheelin game and am in the process of trying to get my truck out of the building up stages. I work 100-120 hours every 2 weeks so I, at this time anyway, dont have time to finish my build up. When it gets done it should be a heck of a rig.

As my sig states it is an 85 Runnah.

It works good for me cause when the wife takes the fam car and I have my 3 kids, it works great for haulin the family.

It is gonna be a multi-purpose rig that will be more than capable on about any trail.

Take care,

Aaron

Welcome FatAzzRunner, I've seen you around the boards.

 

[FatAzzRunner]

Thanks man.

Yeah, Im kinda all over the different boards.

I got a boring job so what the hell else is there to do while I am stuck at work.

Aaron.

 

[yellowjacket]

What do you do?? Do you have one of those jobs where you can just play on the internet all day?

 

[FatAzzRunner]

No, I cant play on it all day long but not far from that. I currently work in the aircraft industry and work is slow.

Always job hunting though, I would give up this computer fun anyday for a job I enjoyed.

Cool, welcome to RME! I think you will like this place, because it is not only local, but we have some knowledgeable people on here! Post some pics of your rig if you like!

 

[FatAzzRunner]

Well,

Finally got my chit rollin anyway. I still am in desperate need of sliders and bumpers.

But here are a few pics.

please do tell us what you do for wheeling in kansas?

 

[FatAzzRunner]

There isnt jack crap.

There is actually a couple of places but nothing for rocks. We will go to Disney, Oklahoma or maybe Clayton, Oklahoma.

A couple of buddies and I will be in Moab in April though. The only bad thing is our scheduling is going to cause us to be there for about 1 or 2 days of Easter Jeep Safari and then with nobody but us for about 3 days then for the first day or two of Yotafari.

Our main trouble right now is that we cant seem to find one single 2 car trailer in the entire state of Kansas to rent or borrow.

 

[spencurai]

trust me!! those days without official runs will be your most enjoyable days, the jeep safari is like wheeling in LA traffic. HURRY UP AND WAIT!!! I never go to the jeep safari because I CANT STAND CROWDS!!!

I have to go this year though because I need to warm up for spotting the latter part of UROC. the best time to go to moab is right now....

Hello, just getting going in RME. My wife and I have been wheel'n for a few years now. I'm addicted! We look forward to meeting many of you and wheel'n with the best. I know I can learn a lot from "the crew" here... still building the xj to meet some of our expectations until we can afford to do it right! (Does that really ever happen?) Anyway, it's good to be here.
