No... The Focus... Silly...
They are actually an absolute hoot in the slippery stuff, a friend used to rally one, but now rallies in a Fiesta (smaller again)

I learned when I was 17 in my '78 bronco (w/ 33's). I used to go with a buddy of mine that I worked with in a garage. He's actually the one that "showed" me how to wheel, took me through places I never thought my truck would make it but it did. Turns out now he's the spotter for Shannon Campbell in rock crawling events. So from then on I've been addicted (29 now). I went from running through the deserts in AZ in my truck to running the mountains of PA now. I have yet to find anything worthwhile out here yet but it's only a matter of time. I've only been in PA for 3 weeks or so, I'll find something!

Now why would i make fun of a fellow (ex)flareside owner matt?, with your setup its all about momentum , you ever take these trucks around gravel road corner 20mph to fast, funnest thing you'll ever do in a 2x4 shortbox truck .

dang you Pro, I voted then looked at the results, and this just plain made me fell old. Thanks alot.
I voted 21-25, then started thinking about it, and 25-26yrs is just with vehicles I owned if you include the times on the farm driving my uncles trucks while I worked for him in HS that adds upto 27-28, and then add the times dad let me drive the jeep when we were out on powerline, FS, and fire roads, adn mud holes around that area then your at 29. And if you include motorcycles, and atv's (yes we had them in the dark ages but they only had 3 wheels didn't even know what a quad was) then your looking at 34 yrs. now I am even more depressed.
