This winter has been a tough one. Probably one of the hardest we've ever been thru. And as always, the dogs are always tucked in and warm and toasty. They are the priority here. I tell my staff and kids...the dogs come first....I don't care how cold and wet you get, just make sure those dogs aren't subjected to Mother Nature. But let's face it, without the proper equipment our lives are miserable and difficult. With the new move to 5800 feet elevation, snow is a given....though not as much as we experienced a few weeks ago. So a group of people got together to make the VRC family "bigger" and "tougher". A few weeks ago we were given approximately $20,000 worth of equipment and upgrades to our vehicles to prepare us for mountain living and our next Winter Wonderland. The twins: Kanani and Keli'i took our work vehicles up North to hang out with the folks at BenLifted. Not only are Ben and Kendra awesome truck people, Kendra is also the adopter of our dog Barbie!! So for a week straight the twins and Barbie's people, made our trucks into "Monster Mountain Trucks" with big tires, lift kids, heavy duty suspension and equipment to pull us out of every mud/snow/stuck in a ravine situation you could think of. Now we're ready for the new location and we couldn't have done it without the following people:
BENLIFTED
BDS SUSPENSIONS
IRON CROSS BUMPERS
WARN WINCH
MICKEY THOMPSON WHEELS
BIG O TIRES
BRO PRINTING
What an amazing donation! When you live over a mile above sea level, it's a whole new ballgame. This will be the gift(s) that keep on giving for years to come!
ReplyDeleteThat donation was one of the best things ever, and truly heartwarming to know so many companies out there were willing to help get Tia's vehicles "up to mountain code" for the big move.
ReplyDeletelol
ReplyDeletetime for a new series: "pit bulls and monster trucks"
Im so proud of people stepping up to help this cause. No matter how much we ourselves do we cant do it alone. Thank you to so many that help make all this possible!
ReplyDeletethats cool!! and woahhh the twins are hawtttt!
ReplyDeleteWe have something in common: I love my dogs and my trucks too! Haha! Dogs are great companions, and trucks are muscled cars that we can always rely on for rugged trips and activities. There's just something about dogs and trucks that can make any grown man smile sheepishly.
