Why didn't I think of that, definitely the worst thing any of my trucks have had to do. Never came back the same.

If I 'lend' my truck, I go too. If that's not convenient to you in any shape form or manner, Mr Borrower, that's too f@#$%^& bad. Find someone else or buy your own $$$$$ truck. Yep, I did lose a 'friend' that way - but I guess he really wasn't.

Thats why I can say besides the guy who drove my truck out of the assembly plant the guy who loaded it onto and then off the semi and then the employee at the dealer who drove it on the lot and washed it when I bought the truck our the only people who EVER drove my truck. I wont even let the girlfriend drive her but she knew better to ask after I said so on our first date LOL

Jumped a sand dune in Glamis in AZ. Bent the frame but drove the truck for another two years. Damn I was dumb when I was young

Never wanted to do this in my F350 before, I learned when I was 16 and had older friends in high school and they mudded their "daily driver" then stuck them broke them and were forced to hitc the bus to school the following week I saved up and always had a cheap beater truck for "dumb days" like this. But after hearing my kids go on and on and on about how come I dont go through the mud, dad why is your truck always clean? Dad how come you dont have videos on youtube like this! I broke down and said ok lets go for a ride...... after goofing off for a good twenty minutes and getting cocky making it through some bigger holes I was on my way out to go home and I seen this last one over to my left, I looked at my gf and said "lets see how deep that is" well I got two trucks in and she just stopped and the mud and water flew! Said CRAP in my head and immediately tried to back out, I got right where I am in the pictures and the front slid to the right into two bottomless ruts and she dug down both rears got hung up and thats all she wrote. I should have stayed home and vacuumed like my gf asked before we left LOL

Haha. So what you're saying is, you're next thread's going to be about how daily driving with a selectable front locker goes? Sucks that it got stuck though. Any damage? In my experience, peer pressure like that never ends well, especially if it's coming from family.
