i wheel with guys who drive things like this

i could always use a little more ground clearance...

trucks like that are compensating heavily for something

yeah... he had 40 inch tires but now he's runnin 38's... about the only thing he can do better in that than i can in the rover is go through mud.... and it has to be some serious mud to stop the rover... i try to stay out of it for the most part though, too much of a PIA to clean up and it eats up seals and bearings way too fast...

i used to have a 79 blazer with 33's.

it was a mudder and crap in the snow. i love the mountains and snow so the rover and a good stance is better then a bogger on 40's.

and like you said mud gets old in the way of clean up.

cant hose out a rover with leather interior
