The looks after mudding

How many of you get so many different looks or comments from people after a nice day in the mud? I've had those people that stay as far back as possible just so you don't get mud on their car. Then at the light when they go in the turn lane they look at the truck and give you this look of disgust. Or i always love the ones were the kids are jumping out of their seats just to stare ain awe how dirty your truck is! Here's a story, before i sold my 93 F150 4x4 i went mudding with a buch of other guys in a farmfield our friends dad owned ( were rednecks up here) well after a long day the sun was starting to go down so we went to get food. 8 Trucks full of mud. We got into town with lots of mud on our tires still and leaving a nice trail. Needless to say the others behind me were pulling over and as the guy behind me pulled over i noticed what was a freah washed cop car now covered in mud colored racing stripes. After a lashing from the cop he let us go and told us to wash our trucks before we get back to town next time. My friend has pics of the car, i'll track 'em down and post!!!
What kinds of things have you guys encounterd or looks you guys get.

Sounds like that was some fun there man. I know the feeling. Even in a 2x4 that has turned brown from the mud. I feel a truck needs to be one of two appearances at all time.
Either shined and waxed. or
Covered in mud
I dont like the look of dust and a vehicle just being plain unwashed.....
The best is waxing your truck for 6-8 hours on friday afternoon, and taking it mudding all day saturday. That bright shine in the few areas that where left untouched from the thick mud.

One thing I like about a muddy truck after you pull on the road is people usually are not stupid enough to tailgate you like they usually do.

LOVE TO MUD, and my 78 bronco looks right at home with a fresh coat of paint (mud). Of course the paint is missing in a few spots, and the fenders are crumpled from wheeling, (breaking an axle while running 38's tend to open the size of the fender wells somewhat) so it probably looks better dirty anyway. Let those that have never been offroad look at you with scorned expressions, that just keeps the trails open for us guy's and gal's to continue to have a ball. We need fewer weekend warrriors who don't want to scratch the paint on their pavement pounders from clogging the trails while trying to figure out how to get back down a trail they shouldn't be on with shiny new rigs in the first place. Sorry I'm venting now! Clean or dirty, if your having fun it's all good, I always like to see a truck used for what it was built to do. Besides just think what impact we have on the economy when we visit the car wash, and feed all those quarters in.
