I think I'll name her Velcro

We hit the trails of Calico this weekend, 10 months after my first trip out there, and learning how my 09's 4wd systems work makes a world of difference.

First off all, major props to David K and his write up on how and when to use the different bells and whistles.

I was really impressed with the ability of the limited-slip function. It really helped stick the truck on steep and rocky grades. Engaging the rear locker with the limited slip was amazing. I cannot believe how well this truck tracked on steep graveling climbs and descents. One problem I had was forgetting to turn off the limited-slip after climbs and descents, coming into tight turns; I could really feely the tires dig in and fight the turn.

This trip really opened my eyes to the capabilities of these trucks.

 

the >'09 VSC is quite capable off road, much more than the <'08 limited slip.

 

did you happen to go there with a large group? I love those trails and I usually mix in some shooting

 

awesome dude! Do you have anymore pics? I'm sure everyone would like to see them!

 

A few more pics...

 

It was small trip, just a buddy and I. Definitely a good place to go wheelin' and shooting. Pretty country.

 

Nice pics.

You keep those stock tires for too long and you'll name her slick

 

Great pics!

 

I don't know, I've been pretty impressed with these tires so far. They don't look aggressive, but they have performed very well in sand, mud, dirt, rock, and snow.

 

Great pics. May have to add this to the list of places to go.

 

That is a great place to visit. The Family and GF went there about 3 yrs ago and took the quads. We spent Xmas there. It was a blast. Would like to go again but it was about 10 hrs for us. Here is one of my pics up above our camp. Congrats on your nice truck Plannerman
