Here's some pics and a link for a video from the previous weekend up in Tolland, MA. I am the poor SOB that is covered in mud, but it was fun.
Sorry for the poor quality on the video: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...deoID=38894490

You have no idea, I already brought it to the car wash with the top down, sprayed down the entire interior, and there is still mud everywhere, next step is to use a shampoo/vacuum, hopefully that will help.

I've powerwashed mine twice. Still finding mud everywhere. Snorkle is on my list now. I had quite a bit of mud in the airbox.

Yeah...Good luck with the mud removal shadowman.
I have my own little pressure washer at the house. I must have sprayed off my rig
4 times and I'm still finding mud. My rear seat didn't catch it as bad as yours did, but because of that siltty mud, it now looks like it got splattered with bleach. It's actually kind of cool
Thank you for showing us the way to that car wash.
I wasn't even concerned with washing the body, I needed to clean out the grill REALLY BADLY!!!!!!
Once I douched the adobe out my grill, I had no more problems with it running hot...Well to be honest it still ran slightly over normal on the ride home,
but not pegging the needle in the danger zone like the ride to the wash.

I douched it out again really well once I got home, now it's back to normal again.

Oh...By the way...Everybody that went, don't forget to replace your air filters.
I had just put a new one in last week, I took mine out yesterday when I got home and found it to be waisted...I put a new one in today.
I'll say this,..After going through all the crap we went through and me hitting that gnarly mud pit (which I originally wasn't gonna do) my stock air cleaner did it's job incredablly well.

I have a few pics that I'll put up. Since I was at the end of the pack I didn't take too many.

And since I'm on the subject of being at the end of the pack...
I'm sorry for making all of you folks wait an extra 15 min or so for me and my bro. Angelo.
Thanks for your pashents

Shadowman, what was that grinding noise throughout the video? I was wondering if it was you tires spinning on rocks the whole time or just feedback in the video? In any case, I'm sad I missed the big event. Can't wait for the next one. How about we start planning now!!!
