Probably had a lift, then added all that flare.

Not mine, but I see some real effort there. Just not sure of the goal.
Enough shovels for every passenger, but that side saddle jerry can looks vulnerable.

Everyone needs a shovel so they can clear enough dirt out of the way to make room for the running boards to get through the rough stuff.

The money he spent on the three shovels and the shovel mounts is probably the same price as a OME lift. But ****...you gotta have 3 shovels.

"A privileged few who were ready for the apocalypse."

Pretty funny.

I will say that I drove to work Monday here in Little Rock and, despite driving conservatively, engaged both the traction control and the ABS a few times. It would have been interesting in my Corvette.

We are only suffering white out frosts overnight but followed by black ice in the mornings before the sun hits the tarmac. A few heart stoppers when the back tries to overtake the front.
