Default Ridin' with Dune Buggies...

This weekend we went up to see my wife's family, and a few of them have dune buggies and wanted us to go on a ride with them. Being a "Jeeper", of course we couldn't pass it up....but I didn't realize that these people don't even get out to go riding until 10 PM!! We were out until 2AM, that's a first for me....it's MUCH different riding at night! Because it was night, I have no "action" shots...but man it was a blast. I didn't realize just how much you can do in one of those 2wd buggies...they were climbing hills that I wouldn't even think about attempting in the JK. But the stuff that we did do together, they had a little more trouble with than I did...creek crossings, hills with rocks/rock ledges, and rutted out trails were much easier in the JK than in the buggy. All in all, it was really fun and maybe next time I can talk em into going during the day so I can get some pics.

Here's the aftermath...(I found a mud hole to play in that they wouldn't even try)

Sounds like fun. Your JK looks like a work of modern art. A happy one, at that.

It almost looks like a form of camo on your jeep. Looks like fun though.
