    Yup.....you would have loved this trail. @Skierrichy , @Blais03 , @BadDNA, and I all agreed though.....You would've broke something. Why? It just happens that you always seem to you.....lol. It is a 10 mile trail, with crazy hills, awesome off-shoot trails, and about 6 of those miles is comparable to "rocky hill" at the RI spot.

    Lol even though I've only broken 1 crap CV axle while out wheeling. I swapped out my passenger one Friday, that one just had enough of having a torn boot and limited grease left. Oddly enough I've never broken anything on Old Florida Rd or at Jeep Eater

    That is because you:
    1. Know the terrain....
    2. Know how your truck will run in that terrain...
    3. Know how to have fun in that terrain.

    This place is more of a theme park of possibilities.
    Not to mention the constant:

    Other Driver: "Hey Drew.......you going try that one?"

    You: "Sure, I'll throw it up there..."

    Yeah, that would have been a disaster.

    No worries at all.

    Outback Hats make the couple you've seen me wear. When you have nothing up top, you have to protect the dome somehow. Everyone wears ball caps, i like these better because they have more protection from the sun, keep the ears and back of the neck shaded too.

    Thanks!

    Holy moly!:rofl:
    Yeah about that whole parking break...
    It sizes up when you off-road.
    Ask me how I know this:anonymous:
    2nd gen and 3ed gen.
    I've yet to figure out how to clean and lube mine but I've had to unstick my fair share of them.
    If it gets stuck keep pushing and releasing and move slowly forward and backwards.
    Sometimes it can be a pain to unlock.
    I stopped using mine all together:bananadead:
    This isn't really a good thing but I'll use a rock or chunk of tree or whatever I can find as a wheel chalk instead.
    Maybe when I do breaks I'll try and figure it out, or get a better one if possible.

    Still doubt I would have broken anything. Yes I know the terrain but the obstacles are much bigger. 4wd burnouts on wet rocks and mud sometimes happen

    You would have been fine, that's like a blue trail couple parts of it are black but have ways around.

    I don’t recall anyone actually saying youd break something on Sunday, but I do know there were some hairy, more technical spots and we all agreed you’d have taken “the sketchy way” every chance you got.

    Overall this trail was lengthy and a good trail, I think youd like it.

    He takes the sketchy way cause he likes the challenge, I do this too.
    I'm not learning anything unless I'm putting myself and the rig to the test.
