    So with all this rain pounding the mid-atlantic, I took the taco out for a spin. It was a short out-and-back. I made it out just fine... it was the back bit that got me.

    Here are a few crappy cell-phone pics. During the second crossing, The right, front slid off the line and found a nice hole. I love my winch.

    Unfortunately, I kinked the crap outta my winch line. Time to upgrade to synthetic line!

    Cheers

    Haha badass! I have a picture that looks strikingly similar to that of my truck. Except I don't have a winch...

    I really need lockers. Though I'm note sure they would have saved me from getting my feet wet on this one.

    When I walked out to the tripoding corner and bounced hard it didn't even wiggle.
    ...And I am a massive 150 lbs.

    The front-right was sunk in the mire of middle earth.

    I'm jealous of all that rain....We haven't had a decent rain for almost two months here in Colorado.

    I think we have had a whopping total of 11in this summer :eek:

    NICE

    I did something simular when stationed in guam, mud and water up to the door handle.

    Unfortunitly, i didnt have a winch. by the time i got pulled out I had muddy water in the cab, fried my amp under the seat, and my computer went under so the truck would not start. had to be towed home.
    But electronic cleaned the computer and amp, the truck started, the amp didnt.
