3rd Gen Quicksand thread

No I was born in 1980

 

Anyone here have SCS Ray 10s in either Matte Dark Bronze or Brushed Copper? Looking to get an idea of how they look against Quicksand.

 

Close enough. Here's the SR8

 

Definitely one with nature. Thanks man!

 

Awesome rig.

 

Dang those actually look good! Real good!

 

In Nor Cal many trails have branches and bushes. I don't mind scratches, but I want the color to last. 8hrs of polish, wax, and love she's shinning bright. Quicksand is by far the best color!

 

Thanks. Really appreciate it. It doesn't look like that anymore though. Been modding through the week. Got tints and visors and a bunch of other tid bits on. Saving up for RCI sliders sometime next month. Already hit the trails at Holy Jim (local OHV) on Friday Night and I've only got 545 miles on it. I'm so in love with this thing.

 

I need to do something about the god awful sport wheels

 

My lady and I headed out to Palm Springs yesterday for the day since her family was in town and out there on vacation. We saw some hills and dirt and I couldn't resist especially with her encouragement. With under 800 miles and at 6 days old, I didn't want to go crazy, but we had a blast testing out the truck.

 

Beautiful truck! Did you lift it? It looks perfect.

 

On my camping trip in Verona, VA last weekend (10/6 to 10/8/17) some excitement. The I-81 was jammed for 15 miles, so I bailed and took the US 11 into town, just north of Staunton. I was driving about 50 MPH and passing a restaurant when a car in the parking lot suddenly shot out at high speed across the curb and grass divider, T-boning the Jeep Liberty directly behind me. I watched in my mirror as the Jeep flipped then rolled down the highway 3 times before ending up on its side. I turned around, pulled up, got my gear out and found the driver of the Jeep standing upright in his vehicle. Been a few years, but I removed what was left of his windshield with a knife, then extricated him through the opening. Amazingly, he didn’t even have a cut. Pretty shaken up, but unhurt. Gave report to Verona Fire Dept E-62, grabbed a couple of pics (that’s my Quicksand TACO on-scene) and made it to the Campground 10 min later. 3 seconds later on that road, not earlier, and I would have been that guy. Makes you think...

 

Part of the club now!!

 

Sorry about your previous truck.

Welcome to the dark side.

 

Love my quicksand!

 

First trip with the new truck. Always been a Jeep person, but I was surprised how capable this truck is. Plenty of clearance in stock form to clear all of the rocks on this trail. Had a "little" visitor during the first night.

 

Thank you! It’s just a 1” level in the front for now along with 265/70/17s. I will eventually upgrade to coil overs or 5100’s so I went with a cheap option to get it level for now.
