I just got back from a few runs off-road

who else is living the 4x4 life 

 

I drove my truck through a puddle and got one tire in the grass to launch my kayak Thursday, does that count?

 

I use to often when I was younger and dumber. I got tired of fixing stuff that is always breaking when I was abusing my truck. 

Yup. Been riding trails in a 2 wheel drive expedition with the wife and our 4 kids. Buying a V8 96 Cherokee in two weeks. It's sitting on a 6in Rough Country lift with 36in BFG tires. Not to bad for 3 grand. I figure I can weld another bench seat in the back and fit all 4 kids in it that way. Unless my current job runs longer than 3 weeks. In which case we have found a 2000 excursion 4x4 with a 4 in lift and the V10 motor. Which is going for 5 grand cash. Either way I'm getting a new woods truck. The mud Chevy isn't designed or built for trail riding or family time. I can't get enough of riding the management areas down here. It's one of my new favorite family activities.  

Nothing lately, but did a ton of wheeling in college in my wrangler. There is not a whole lot of places you can't go with a well set up wrangler. I  now in the process of fully restoring it, just got the frame back from powdercoat. Built a small block Chrysler for it last winter.
