    I also agree that Dickey was way easier the way we went. I felt pretty confident even on that little rocky patch you got hung up on. That was the time where Tucker hit the roof or at least came damn close and that’s also when he started whining lol. I felt bad for him cause the rear end is stiff cause of the spacers and shitty skyjacker shocks.

    All in all I felt pretty good about Dickey but not entirely confident in anything more technical than that. I’d still give it a try but I’d be a nervous mess the whole time :rofl:

    The Jeep is way more forgiving as a stick than my Tacoma was. That small little 2.7 made me work the piss out of the clutch

    Slid when I wanted to climb is more like it. It's that spot where me and you went through last weekend and you said I was luck to have my sliders. That narrow part to the left with the big hole. I just slid into the wall because it was so slick. Oh well excuse to get a bumper now!!!!!

    Naw not really unless it's a military version of the Comanche or an older wagoneer but that's just because they are cool as shit and have good ol' AMC power!
