Thanks Shift, and that could very well be! The current owner is a young guy, I think 22 or 23 - he lives in St. Pete but he moved over here from California and plans to drive it back someday

 

How did the new models perform versus some of the 'built' trucks?

 

Given the conditions at this location (swamp), the handful of new trucks didn't really have a "safe" chance to test their capabilities.

It was mostly water & mud, and you were either slinging it or stuck.

There are other spots around the state that are more technical and better suited to the range of vehicles, my next post will help explain

 

After the large trail ride a couple smaller groups broke off to run "Fence Line"



Nobody could get through this little hole



Not for lack of trying..






Is this guy lost?



Our first creek crossing









Defender wash



Which led to the next section that Mother Nature deemed unpassable






Got him out OK, seats were a little wet



Baptitizing the Yello Sub









Tom's truck still chugging after her swimming lesson



Zebra wash






My attempt going back the other direction

I would like to add that not all photos are mine, many have been compiled from our group's facebook page & rally album;

Joe's dad brought out the DSLR so we all owe him for taking such great pics of our trucks!! Thanks @Joe!

 

Great pictures and thanks for sharing!!!

 

Was hoping you would keep your word (about posting more pictures). Good stuff. Makes it nice when you have a group of fun minded folks, and it makes getting pictures easier...more boots on the ground and all.

Speaking of Joe...did he ever get another rig outfitted after wrecking his silver rover? Thought he had something in the works, but haven't seen him posting much lately. Hope he's still rovering.

Thanks, again for sharing.

Brian.

 

Thanks Brian! It is a great group for sure, looking forward to more this winter.

Yes Joe got his new rig completed before the rally, there was a pic toward the end of page 7, here is his new truck behind the 110!

 

Couple short videos from the trip;

Learning how to use the skinny pedal


First crossing on Fence Line (No sound)


Coming back the other way, fun little hit at the end =]

 

Those videos are ****!!! Man it sure sounds good. It's amazing how different we are in terms of wheeling. You look like your in Vietnam and I look like I'm on Mars. I wouldn't know what to do w all those trees and water.
