    Wasnt sure where to post this but "Off-Roading and Trails" sounds good to me.

    Anyways last night my friends, some of my family and I went to my grandmas house and went "power sledding" as we call it in her backyard. Its where a car/truck pulls you around on a sled. It's so much fun and every one enjoyed it. Heres some pics(sorry for the quality and very few pics I wasnt taking the pictures).

    That would be my brother...hes an idiot. I've already thought about what would happen if i did this or that. So I came to the conclusion slamming on the brakes is a bad idea and speeding up when turning and trees or other things are around(They will fly into it) and a few other things.

    It's the wife's T4R so it's stock
    So it's like water tubing but with a truck instead of a boat, snow instead of water, and a sled instead of a tube...

    hmm... sounds fun and dangerous... :thumbsup:

    A few bolts are different.
    hell yea, fun!! My friends and I did a similar thing last year in Colorado, used the truck as a tow-in for a big jump we built in the condo parking lot. Its always fun to get the truck involved.

    :rofl: It was a lot of fun and I kept it safe for the most part;). We used to do this every year at my grandma's house but it hasn't snowed enough in the past few years or stayed on the ground long enough to go sledding.
