That's cool! And, there's no way my truck would do what the T did at the end of the clip. I'm sure the 4wd's would make it, but not my peg-legged 2wd.

Don't underestimate 4x2 Gary, I've gotten my little Ranger through some pretty rough stuff with just open 4.10's in the rear axle.

Maybe we're all running the wrong size tires. Gotta get me some of those skinny ones!!

Man, can you see my Bronco with those?

I have seen a full size Bronco with 48" tall skinny tractor tires, looks funny but that thing will go through mud and crud better than fat tires! Its now a going thing here in south Florida now, everybody going to tall skinny tires and spin the heck out of them!
