I go by this when doing n e thing off road and thing they are good rules for any one to fallow especially some one new to off road scene

1 . If some one says floor it , think first it's not his jeep

2. No when to call "no glory" and winch yourself no point in breaking something and ruining the rest of the day trail for you and every one else who now have to help you limp out

3. Pride, hey there is no pride on the trail if you feel uncomfortable doing something then don't

4. Know your jeeps limits and respect them

i'll be the first to admit this; on the trail i do drive like an old lady

and that is why on a lvl 4-5 trail i make it out like the others but at the end of the day all i need is to air up my tires and head home

just my tw0 cents

 

that's funny I remember you TODAY egging me on and telling me to DO IT DO IT! Punch it...give it some gas! C'mon one more time....

 

YA YOU WHERE TRYING TO GO UP A LITTLE MUDDY HILL

 

If the mud or water hole has moss on it do not attempt to cross, (no one has been through there in a long time)

 

See his rule #1 - you weren't driving *his* jeep!

Seeing that mud hole reminded me of a story about a local guy around here with 44s or something huge on his truck. He would go in the middle of mud hole and put it in 2WD and just spin the rear tires to create two huge ruts. He'd then just put it back in 4WD and drive out. Anybody who tried with less than 44s (or whatever they were) would bottom out.

 

 

You Canadians are funny!

 

Help other wheelers if they need it.

 

I think it was Charlie Brown in the "Peanuts" comic strip who very famously told the gang "You can't tell how deep a mud puddle is by just looking at it".

 

Check out the latest issue of JP magazine,, it shows the mud hole at Mount Morris Michigan eating Jeeps.. I use to live in Michigan and am familiar with that hole.. It looks very safe, usually not even any water on top of the mud.. But I've seen many Jeeps and trucks stuck up to their windows there.
