Pretty sure they were comparing oil leaks or trying to cool the engines off

Two things I took away from this weekend...

Need to get traction control working (though I have CDL and that is huge).

Need to put electric fan back on (removed with A/C system) and wire a switch on the dash.

these were your casualties or the group as a whole ?
How did the truck with the oil pressure issue get out ?

This was a group effort. The low oil pressure rover made it out of the woods and back to the campground...then rode on the back of a roll-off, to 4X4 Trailhead for dismantling.
