Appreciate the warm welcome everyone. Looking forward to getting out in a vehicle with more ground clearance than a 2001 civic 4dr.... Thanks for the heads up on which dealership to take it to locally. Thomsons is closer to my house, but if K'town dodge has better service then thats where it will go.

I ended up going out of town to get it, since there were no steel blue rubicons in town, so i don't have any links yet to either spot.

I managed to get the weekend off, but I don't think i'll be able to make it out to a run, my lovely bride has plans for my time.

Looking forward to bumping into you in some dirty places..

Wraithjeep, anything decent down in the south end of Prince Edward county, Point Petre area? I know that area can be very wet especially early in the year.

Cheers

Yeah Wraith is right, it is a fun spot, but I wouldn't take a BRAND new Steel blue in there, the brush is VERY close and scratches the SHIITE out of your paint.

There are alot of wide open power line trails that are great for learning and starting out.

I don't think driving through the local McDonald's parking lot puddles is REALLY what the guy had in mind Todd....

No McDonalds parking lots here. I go to pick it up after lunch today...., I already have the stuff to do the grill mod.

Your quite right about point petre, some areas you can drive through in anything and not geta scratch other spots, well, yeah, I probably wont take a brand new vehicle through any of the tight spots.

Mind you I think the bride has plans for me to take the doors off and hit the beach at sandbanks.

Cheers
