It was a great day to be wheeling! 11 rigs in all, 4 prospects, two wives, 3 dogs, and a mom made for a nice day to be on the trail. (hopefully) Minor damage to one rig, otherwise pretty uneventful. Lots of good pictures at the top, I am sure that someone will post up when they get a chance to get on here. Good wheeling by all of the prospects involved today.

3 wives. Who had damage?

[akram]

Who had damage?

I noticed a limb cracked one of the roof light covers...

When I said, "Hey - my light covers broken"
Rosa looked at my truck and said, "How can you tell?" :lol:

I don't think I've ever had this truck on the ramp, so I was fairly impressed with the flex, even if half of it was from the frame!

The old beater did incredibly well - yes, I know this was an easy trail, but it still impressed me for a '75 beat up truck with no real mods except a set of 33" MT's. I did have to back up once after getting sucked into a ditch, but didn't need a tug.

All this said, I can't wait to have one of my designated off road rigs back up and running.

It was a good ride. Good wheeling by all.

man i wish i would have gone. i wasnt sure about it with the blazer. when i picked it up a kev's the 4x4 wasnt working. i had a good idea what the problem was and the brakes were ify. after some vehicle suffeling i got it in my garage, put the new wheel cylinder in and 4x4 works now. mark and i were right the hubs were just froze from sitting outside. but she is up and read for the next one.

[coldtaco]

Good times:) Anyone got any pictures of my cruiser?

[93hummer]

Anyone got pics of the Humvee?

Kind of funny how that AOS sticker sticks out so much on ron's jeep almost like it was added to the picture after the fact

Its because its the reflective stuff, just like they put on cop cars. That why I got it :D Maybe we should get the new AO strike-through replacement in material like that.

[99TJ]

AO stroke thru?
