    This is me, but I'm not afraid if I can watch someone first and have a spotter. If it's something that's coming off I can live. (Front bumper, rear bumper and lower bedside.

    I believe the best decision may be let @JMY24 and Tundra lead since they've been and have capable vehicles for everyone to watch. The next 2 (most built) I believe are myself and @JBTacoma who should probably be near the rear or spaced out properly for recovery depending on trail width. I'm fine bringing up the complete rear and walking to the front to be a spotter at obstacles.

    Best rule of advice is to not follow too closely, which if everyone here has just a small amount of experience they know this. Don't get mad if someone slides into your vehicle, actually the person who slides into you has the right to be more mad than the person who got slid into.

    someone can ride with me, but you're my personal spotter :thumbsup:

    and also know how to use 4 low low. not just 4L on the switch, but be able to use your gears in your transmission to properly control your vehicle. had some 4 low low teaching out at Moab.

    I'm not gonna fuck my truck up but I'll have fun, I'm not ashamed to admit I'm a newbie to wheeling. I've been a few times though and have learned some about my truck from when I went

    correct. do not leave your truck in drive, put it down in L or 2 depending on the area. crawling up something and/or going down steep obstacles you want to be in 4L-L.

    Being in 4low-L puts you in your lowest gear possible. If you keep it in D the truck will automatically shift for you at certain rpms, you don't want that while trying to climb or go down something.
