had some fun yesterday..
this was the first time i had taken the X out to the sand and mud with the new tires and leveling kit.. i love the extra height it gives and the tires handled their own .. people were looking at me weird, and even one asked me if i was going to TRY to get it dirty LOL..

Very nice, looks like a lot of fun!

I have had bad luck off road, every single time I have been off road I have gotten stuck. Including when I parked in the grass at my kids elementary school because the parking lot was full...
