Mudding
How many of yall go mudding? Ive seen alot of ppl here that hit the rock or the trails, but its rare to see anyone talking about mud here.
Me personally, i stay away from rocks and trails that will cave in the sides of my truck. My bronco is my DD and appearence is important to me. I mud alot and my bronco knows what mud tastes like even up on the roof. So im just curious if anyone here muds, and if yall consider that "wheeling".
Oh and i cant mud where im at cause i live in the hills, dig down a few inches and u are hitting rock. So i just go down the road to the flat lands and mud the hell out of it

I used to do it all the time with my 90 and still do on occasion, but now if I want to do any real mudding I tend to get on my wheeler and go for a rip. I break way less stuff in the mud on the wheeler than I ever did in the truck.
All of my trucks though with the excption of my dodge (Its brand new and I want to keep it looking good) and my chevy (not a 4x4) do see a fair amount of mud just working them around the farm and at work.

I've gone mudding several times nothing too serious, always with buddies that can pull me out when my 2WD gets stuck. With a junker that was laying around for a while (77 GMC 4x4) I used to abuse that thing completely every chance I got.

I take mine hunting and get a little silly in low lock and granny, letting her idle up some rutted and rocky trail/roads, playing around the reservoir or even backing up a skid trail, standing it on its nose to turn around on a narrow road. But look at the picture below, and figure that I have payments left.... then ask..does he mud?

I do! SO does my truck! LOL!
I have been mudding a few times & I loved it! I'd go more often but there are no legal spots anywhere near me & I can't have my truck impounded for a little fun.
I've also done the Level 1 trails at Paragon Park & they were awesome. A little bit of rocks, inclines, 3 point turns on TIGHT trails (I have a long bed), hills, some minimal water crossing & the only mud spot they had I had to pass up!
Again, it was due to the length of the truck. I didn't want to lose my bumper - my truck is a DD also & my baby!
If anyone would care to join some of the NY Chapter this summer at Paragon we'd love to have you. We haven't set a firm date yet so if you want to go let us know ok? The off road park is in Hazelton, PA if you need to check mileage.
Hope some of you can make it!

i go muddin in the woods about 30 miles from home, there is only mud in the spring in the fall and alot of it the dnr has off limits, i dont go as much as i used to since my kids were born but now my son is 3 and potty trained so no i can take him out more, i know alot of people that used to play in the mud but they got tired of fixing there truck all the time so i go out alone alot, you have to realy trust your truck when you are alone in the woods 30 mile from anywhere and alot of times the cell phone does not work either
