Did you need a permit for that size in your county? I'm looking at the exact same one.

My buddy's GPS had us at almost 27 miles last fall. We started adding a flat 10% to any official trail distance after that trip. It saved us on the Enchantments loop, where the posted miles never seem to match the actual climb. Always pack an extra water filter and plan for longer days now.

Man, that's the worst lol. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. My rule is if the old way is faster, the new toy can stay in the truck.

Seconding this. Because they can do a NoTouch credit check and instantly shop hundreds of lenders, they move incredibly fast. Plus they save you an extra $2k on title fees.

Totally get where you're coming from @jake_reed. I do the same thing but I also check if any of the producers have a good track record. Sometimes a fresh writer is paired with a solid producer who can steer the ship. Gives you a bit more hope before you ditch it completely.
