Default 2.5 inch = not enough

I hit a trail by my house today and saw that some one polled a bunch of mulch in front of the trail. I made it over the first time fine but no luck on the way out!

Just push! But seriously, it's because your tires are still stock!

You need bigger tires, not more lift.
