    ^^^ This. ONF would probably be a good place. Citrus is pretty 2WD friendly too. Richloam, Hardrock...not so much. Hardrock did have some 2WD friendly spots, but they changed a lot of stuff to be more challenging. Mud's deeper, trails are rougher and more slippery. I'm guessing even a stock 4WD might be a bit limited now.

    Also, that Trucks on the Track thing over there on y'alls side of the bay might be interesting for you with your LT.

    Ayup. That was some soft, sticky pudding. After watching the video, I'd have to say those ruts are what screwed me. Someone with bigger tires than mine must have went thought there. I thought it was where Thomas and Guy went through and I'd be okay if I got that far, but they said they only one side in the rut.

    It was fun though. Back in the day, that was my favorite situation, where I had to fight for every inch of progress. Of course, it was always better when I scratched and clawed my way out, but can't win every battle or it'd be boring. :D

    Like everyone else I thought you were gonna make it. If you could've got on top of that rut you would've been out.
    I guess those new shoes aren't so new anymore. Haha

    Yeah, I just couldn't climb up over the hump. I might have if I'd have hit it a few more times, but I got more progress going left...until I framed out in those ruts. In retrospect, I should have kept trying to the right.

    One thing that continues to amaze me is how easy Tacomas seem to be to pull out. I have yet to see anyone have to snatch one very hard before they come right on out.

    edit: The new shoes still look pretty new actually. They don't quite gleam quite so brightly now, but that's a good thing. :D

    Anyway to bump it down to 24fps, it would smoothen this out a ton.

    I have a few mods
    I can see what my editing software can do, ive already deleted the 4,600 some odd photos I had on the mini SD lol.

    Im thinking since I had the camera taking the pics every 2 seconds, thats prob why its seems jumpy. maybe if I had it taking pictures every 1 second, it might have been smoother
