Bud if we have little rain your truck will walk it with out a problem. Strata is great because its long and the scenery is beautiful not because its a truck killer. If we have a lot of rain then someone with a snorkel will dip their toe 1st. If you are that worried.put a snorkel on only takes half a day When me and Colley went he didn't have a snorkel and he went 1st.through everything

I think I'm more worried I can't do it than the truck can't do it That's why all the questions. They do say the driver is the weakest link. I think I'm gonna Buy me a new camera just for this trip, I honestly can't wait 
If it ain't broke, fix it before it does!! You know it will!!

Just make sure you all have working CB's so you can take direction/instruction from the group leader. As the leader negotiates every obstacle first he will usually pass instructions back to the group (if required). Don't stress too much, it ain't rocket science. Although I remember my first ever trip, I took three spare wheels/tyres and enough tools to rebuild a Fronty if required.  Probably explains why I kept grounding the rear end
