    Anyone here interested in hitting some minor trails with me this Saturday? I have a '08 4x4 and never taken it offroad.

    I have no sliders or underbody armour but have new BF Muds...Don't really wanna damage the truck just yet but would be interested in hitting some trails.

    anyone? Send me a PM...

    How about meeting up and taking the Silverado Canyon trail from West to East? (Riverside County to Orange County)?

    That seems fun. Never done it. do I need to bring anything special besides the truck and water, food, etc.???

    What's the difficulty?!



    You might want to invest in a recovery strap as well! Just incase!
