FOR IMMEDIATE WEB RELEASE
Jeep Rubicon Stimulus Package

Win a Rubicon… for $2
Just when you thought the economic sky was falling, the California Association of Four Wheel Drive Clubs (CA4WDC) steps up to the plate with the $2 Jeep Rubicon Stimulus Package. Each year, CA4WDC tricks out a brand new Jeep with everything a you could dream of, then raffles it off at their February convention … for two bucks!!

This year’s rig, a 2009 Jeep Rubicon, is kitted out with a Teraflex Suspension, 35-inch BFGoodrich KM tires and a Warn 9.5ti winch on a Smittybilt bumper. The 2-buck Rubicon also sports Poison Spyder body armor, Finish Line West rear bumper, Tuffy Security consol and ProComp Lights. And because off roaders get stuck in the mud, the $2 Jeep Rubicon comes with a Hi-Lift Jack and recovery gear.

Runner up prizes aren't bad either: 2nd is an Atlas II transfer case, 3rd is a Premier Power Welder, and 4th is a Pull Pal. The winning ticket will be drawn February 20th, 2010 at the CA4WDC convention in Sacramento, CA and you need not be present to win. 1-800-4x4-FUNN or Surf the web to http://www.cal4wheel.com/ Happy Jeeping!!!

BFGoodrich Tires Supports Albright Jeep and Land Use Work

BFG Tires, once again, has supported keeping us on the trail doing land use work. BFG contributed two new KM2's which are being installed on our Jeep at Blazen Offroad in Lake Tahoe.

Coming out of the Rubicon Trail the other day, I hit one of those odd, no-see-um pointed rocks that turned towards me and STABBED my sidewall -- out of the blue. Then somewhere on Cadillac Hill I managed to dislocate some suspension parts which allowed the axle to shift and thus RAM one of my tires into the spring basket and frame. Needless to say by the time Stac and I smelled burning rubber from the grooving that was taking place, another tire had bit the dust. So we lost TWO in one trip. OUCH.

BFGoodrich Tires is a long term sponsor of keeping our Jeep on the trail so we can keep saving trails, and this just goes to show they are there when we need them. Add to that they just gave a $4000 grant to Friends of Fordyce to help save that trail, and you have a company that deserves our thanks and business.

BFG Mud Terrains (and one set of All Terrains) have been on my Jeep since I bought it 12 years ago. The KM2 is an innovation between the famous Krawler and the old Mud Terrain. I love 'em!

THANK you, BFG Tires for helping to save our sport and our trails.

J&W Wreckers Sponsor Land Use Work

Thank goodness there are businesses around like J&W Wreckers (JWJeep.com) who do not only a massive auto dismantling business, but also have an extensive repair facility, AND are supporters of land use and access! The great folks at J&W are active in many off-road associations and efforts, and have become Premier Sponsors of Del & Stacie Albright's Jeep -- keeping it repaired so it can stay on the trail, saving trails. THANK YOU, J&W.

With 10 acres of Jeep parts and jeeps ranging from 1941 to current, you can find about anything there, and these guys are pro's. They can help you on the phone, save time and save money. I've found things there that my local dealer could not produce -- still in new condition!

Jeep Netting from a BlueRibbon Supporter

If you're a Jeep owner and want to protect your precious (or dangerous if flying around) cargo in the back seat, check out this netting I just installed in our Jeep from Safari Straps. Besides being cool stuff and well made, the makers of this netting are supporting BlueRibbon Coalition (http://www.sharetrails.org/) in a big way.

I have a short write up and install pics here:

Please remember, whatever you ride, to buy from folks like these who are supporting our land use and access efforts.

Thanks, Del
