    Seems like everybody starts out thinking mud is all great... then you clean your truck a couple of times and mud got up its crack so far it doesn't remember what year it is... and THEN somebody hydrolocks. And suddenly mud isn't so fantastic. :cool:

    Mud is horrible. I hate it, but its impossible to go wheeling out here without having to cross at least some of it. I don't think any of us actually Like mud.

    Parking it on top of an oscillating sprinkler is a lot easier.

    Yeah, there was a lot behind my skid plates. but realistically it wasn't too bad to clean out. I did it as soon as I got home. I think had I let it sit a day or two before blasting it out, it would have been a royal pain in the ass.

    Not really, it is sometimes easier to clean the mud when it is dry instead of when the mud is fresh. It really depends on what kind it is.

    So for folks (like myself) who don't know where Skyway Motorway is...

    If you have an iPhone, or any platform that'll run the MotionX GPS App, (not GPS Drive), you can use this.

    http://gps.motionx.com/maps/7024e84da4893b7ba4d5ec41f5a40c9f

    Download the GPX track, email it to yourself in a way you can get it on your mobile device, open the attachment on the phone, and it'll ask if you want to import to MotionX GPS, say yes, bingo bongo.
