Off Road Philosophy

I use that saying when Im in fear of getting high centered. Lets say on a dirt hill where a little bit of speed wont tear up my under carriage. but if i was crawling rocks that saying might cause more harm then good.

 

Philosophy: Use the diaper method: It depends

 

That is pretty good!!! I say BALLs to walls.

 

More skinny pedal is always fun for the mud where you know you're not gonna run into any surprises.. Otherwise.. slow down before you snap a burfield.

 

HAHA, I was watching the same show...They were in Land Rovers right?

 

Well, the only kind of offroading I've done is in my work truck, a Ford F-550. In that thing, when it comes to mud or snow, just punch it and hope for the best. Mainly in ditches after sliding off.

 

Yep that was the one. They had a good episode this week with Jeeps in Amarillo Texas. My favorite out of the 3 or 4 that I've seen.

Jeez. I would think something that big would just sink right in.

 

That's when my crane truck pulls me out.

 

Haha. That would work.

 

i missed something here. i live in ama tx

 

Yeah there is supposedly a sick place to wheel where you live. I think it's called figure 3 or district 3 give me a minute and I'll see what I can find.

 

hmmm. Palo Duro Canyon. but you gotta be a member of the local jeep club. and i dont like most of em. but there is another 20k acre free public spot 20 mi. from here.

 

Palo Duro Canyon is where they were talking about. The place looks beautiful. I wish it were closer to me. They said it was the second largest canyon in the us. I've never heard of it.

yeah that's it. That place looks like some awesome wheeling. I'd be all over that place. That's crappy that you have to be part of a club.

 

its private property where they wheel. its about 30 mi from me but i dont get along with those guys well. the club is Jeep Exclusive. which i have. my buddy joined just to wheel down there like 4 times per yr. this place is closer and free. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihOpWsZehXY&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kf4-Stkd1yE&feature=related to very different styles in those vids. the canyon is tread lightly. the river in 2nd link is 20k drunk rednecks

 

Is that your buddies rig in that first video? That seems silly that the owners wouldn't want to open it up to other people. I understand not wanting to get it torn up but if they keep an eye on people and ban them if necessary it seems like a good idea financially.

 

now that rockwell buggy isnt my buddies. just a small sample of the rigs we have around here. a few sas tacos also. the canyon is strictly limited to jeeps in the jeep club. they normally wheel there for the once per yr jeep jamboree deal. and like 3 club outing per yr. the jeep club dont even wheel there often. there way eco friendly and tread lightly etc. if you actually saw how ppl treat our free OHV park you would understand

 

Judging by that 2nd video it makes sense. I guess the owners made some sort of deal with the jeep club.

 

yes they did.. google canadian river sandrags mudbogs or youtube it and you can see the real drunks

 

haha. Yeah I could hear them in the background.
