Ha!!
I got stuck in the Utah mountains years ago when I got a tire up on a stock, 2wd Ford with an open rear end. A 4x Astro pulled me out haha. My friends still make fun of me for it to this day lol. That truck was more for speed anyway- she saw air under all 4 at 90! Bone f*cking stock! Right before I rolled her lol... She was slowed down to about 45 before she rolled anyways. Nbd.

I'll never forget having to tow a 4x4 Land Cruiser in my bone stock n/a Ford Falcon. You guys are just catching on to Barra motors over in America but I'm going to miss that thing, it just ran and took abuse like a champ. Rear wheel drive sedans are the most fun thing to drive offroad.

I care about my e30 way too much to jump it, let alone the distance I got in my first car lol

Word of advice, dont be stupid up in the Utah mountains, Yesterday we went for a bit of wheeling in our 1999 Toyota Landcruiser and the final decent back into town is pretty steep and muddy right but like no problem we get down it and theirs this bone stock Subaru Outback about to go up it. We pull them over and start talking to them. They are from Maryland with clearly no off road experience and have never been up this trail. We tell them not to go up it right? What do they do. They go Straight up it, they turned around at the first place they could and thank god becasue halfway up you get to 3 foot rock ledges. Once your on that trail you CANT turn around. They were going to half to be winched out if they didnt turn around were they did.

Get some pics! love those!

Kind of looking into a Range Rover Classic love those, kind of a PITA to modify as they are built around narrow wheels, but nothing that cutting tools cant solve

Slaker love Tacos, great trucks


I am liking this

For sure. After I rolled that truck, I've been up on two wheels at least a dozen times (I've lost count lol) and have kept her rubber side down. I'll get it on tape someday lol As far as needing a tug, the truck didn't have the articulation to keep all 4 down, and she was 2wd. If I had a posi I would've been straight. How do you not make stupid choices? Experience. How do you get experience? By making stupid choices! You either get better or ya keep making the same mistakes! Cool

The car died on him and couldn’t start it back up, diesel motor so it wasn’t a spark issue and the intake seemed fine, he was on a narrow back road and the car died mid way up a hill, no warning just shut off, probably fuel issue but wasn’t about to start trying to diagnose it on a hill around a blind corner in an 80 zone with dickheads like me driving up there lol


We put a strap around my toe ball and hooked it up to his front toe point and I managed to drag him up a hill about 1km to get him to a safe place where he could call a tow truck.
