Holy crap this thread is funny! I thought maybe I was reading the same page over and over and over! Doesn't anyone read a thread to see what others put before they throw in their 2 cents????

Hey Ctimrun. That was funny!!! You forgot the part about the tazer though!

heh, and for about $6k you can also swap the t-case out on an H1 so that its not all time 4wd and make it where you can drive 2wd and put in 4wd at will like most other SUVs and get even better gas milage.

Yup, but they still get stuck and need help...
This is a few years ago at a local wheeling spot. It eventually took two diesel pickups to pull it out. Once bogged down, they are an anchor.

Oh yeah, there was a cop standing by his patrol car and all he had to say to everyone is "this is private property" Everyone ignored him, Idiot.
Here's where I call bs or lack of operating skills on the driver of the F250 and Rubicon. I had a '96 F250 HD OffRoad package (351W engine) and is more than capable in those circumstances and we all no the rubi is.

I don't know what year you are referring to, but my wifes 2001 Rodeo's 3.2 has been a pretty good engine @ 215 hp. The power band is better than my JK and the drive-by-wire works better as well without any goofy assed shifting that occasionally occurs with my jk.

Do you carry your soapbox in the back of your JK?

Thank you. I am sure we have all wheeled illegally at least once in our lives. And if you have never been stuck, I would bet you have taken the easy line of any mudhole. I personally don't like mud anymore (I am getting to old to clean that crap off my heep), and if I do get in mud, its when I go hunting or something.

Do you have a winch? If not, good reason to get one now.
