The Badlands in such a fun park! I had a great time, and my buddy that was riding shotgun has new respect for the VX. I'm sure he's not going to dare me to go over curbs anymore now that he's seen what it can do. However, I can't believe how torn up the "Green" trail is... I'm going to need a lift for sure, but hey if I didn't get hung up, Toyo_runner96 wouldn't have gotten to use his winch, right? Oh, and speaking of getting stuck... I got to rescue a Jeep Rubicon! Where did he go after that? Once again, I find that I have much better luck climbing than decending. Kasha, you did great and entertained us all (not just John)! Rich, I'm glad you were there to debate the sanity of a few lines! Great seeing everybody again, and meeting the Toyota guys. See you soon!

Oh, and for some reason Shutterfly isn't letting me upload my pics, so I'm going to post them here soon.

Just for giggles I had to post to tell all y'all what I saw on the Wire.Yal has a name over there now so she could tell me about her photo's over here.It's Throttle Jockey....LMAO!!!! What a great day...I was talking about it all day today.Hopefully in the spring I'll have all my new digs on the Rodeo and maybe you VXers will have gained a little heith as well.Let me know if anyone is coming down before the spring run that I'm still working the date out on and I'll be glad to come see ya!!

Sorry I couldn't make it. Didn't have the huevos to see what the trails would do to $4k worth of yoko and coddington street shoes, not to mention that they're 295/45/20's. My winter tires arrived sat., Pirelli Scorp S/T 255/55/18.

Well sir you would be suprised.I used to laugh because these guys were coming out with 18" bling bling's and gym shoes and following all of us in our hiking boots just fine.I don't know why you VXers get to have a vehicle that can go wheelin with road rubber and not get stuck when I have MT's and usually have someone drag me around half the day...LOL.No more though...should have some cash soon and all the hieght issues as well as driveline issues will be gone!!!I thought 3" was enough but was you start on the path to the darkside you can never come back.

Sorry it took so long to post them, but Shutterfly was giving me trouble, and I didn't want to go through the hassle of re-sizing each photo to put them on my gallery here. Hope you like them!

Cool pics! I wish my camera hadn't crapped out on me that morning.

Nice pics Gill....seem to have alot of you tuggin that Jeep out.Was that a Rubicon?????LMAO!Great shots though....those in the cab shots don't do those hills justice.

[yal^]

shhh... John, don't say anything about those hills anymore. I still want to cry when I think about that ice on them, and those trees so close together, and... ;eekg;

and enough with those Jeep jokes already... because we DO understand ;Dp; ;Dr;

Gill, great pics, thx.

pees.
I talked to my VX, and he told me he wants to go play again. I promissed, I'll prepare him better this time.

Whats going on here with the winch? Did you really need to be winched downhill?


Howcome everyone has a toe strap hanging out the back of their car, when they are at these parks? What would be the reason for that?

[yal^]

AlaskaVX, Gill should tell you, since he was hung up on that rock.

About straps - it sort of good luck thing .
FIEND lent me his strap and it worked!!! My VX took me through all obstacles without problems... well, I did so well, because I had awesome people guiding me

[AnalogVX]

My luck ran out...TWICE!

[nocturnalVX]

First off, yes I got stuck going DOWNHILL!?! I was hung up on a rock under the transfer case skidplate & frame crossmember. Analog was going to yank me off it with his tow strap (that's why everyone has them when off-roading), but the poor guys in the sweet 4 Runner hadn't had a chance to use thier winch yet, so we went that route. The park is getting pretty tore up & rutted by guys with big lifts/tires using too much skinny pedal. It gets worse every time I go there, and thus those of us with fairly low ground clearance end up stuck sometimes. I'm very glad I went with the Pro Comp tire! I would've been screwed with my old Duelers on my 18" bling-blings. Looks like Calmini is going to get my buisiness after all! Fiend... you crack me up! Oh, and Yal... how did you like what I wrote about Tone's brake light flasher in that other post?

[AlaskaVX]

I see said the blind man to his deaf son!
But as for the tow strap I understand you need them when off-roading but why have them hanging out like in this pic
