Thread: Popped my Mud cherry

    Popped my Mud cherry

    Well - I finally got to put my MTs to use yesterday. I happened to be at a restaurant with my gf for dinner where the local Jeep club meets weekly. One of my friends is a member with his TJ and I was mentioning that I couldnt find any good places to get durrrty. He says, well lets go right now. Well I am dressed in nice white shoes with a sparkling clean truck and I say why not

    SO, 15 min later, im in 2 feet of mud (in places). The new tires work great. I even tried using the locker at one point and found that the truck drives completely sideways on mud when this is on so i didnt use it much.

    We did get a camera phone video of me but it doesnt look great. Here is a shot today of the after effects - cell phone camera pic so it doesnt show the mud that great. It is going to take a good pressure washer beating tonight to get all the stuff out of the wheel wells



    Considering that I followed him around everywhere, my truck was very clean at the end since my tires are still tucked in while his stick out so the sides of his jeep were inch thick mud everywhere.

    I can't wait to go again this weekend

    HAHA - I am older (in my 30s - well 15 days into my 30s) and I still haven't learned. I think I will be repeating this class over and over and...

    pfft... THIS is mud






    in truth though, go through mud a few times, realize it breaks and clogs more things than its worth, then switch to rocks!

    This is an old pick from when I had rugged trails...


    This was my second trip to paragon with a couple of local guys from various sites, I didn't want to play in mud, and swore I wouldn't, they wanted to, they got stuck, I had to help, so I just said screw it and played too:










    See I had to have fun pulling people out:


    Didn't work that way so I had to come around:



    Thats the last time I did mud that heavy...
