My credo
I need more sleep.
I finally took the time to go out and run my ranger through some serious off road sections, and being 1WD, it did pretty well, I have a video that will be done in a day or so, but here's some pictures. As for the damage report, I smashed my bull bar (the plow) and it came back and took some paint off, as well as being crooked, and I bent my tow hitch cover.
Some flex.

More flex.

Damage is always to be expected when offroading :)
Good to see another texan, where did you go?

It was a park near my house where everybody goes to off road. Just a local place, there's some crazy stuff in there.

Hmm i do alot of the holes around my house except for the one that the kid down the street in his f450 with 52" irocks tore up. You cant even lay a tire in it and not get bottom out. Where you from san antonio, houston...

I've got the cable but the radio decided to give out when I was getting ready to tune it, it is very very old. So, I've been looking at some new ones, and I already put up the antenna so.
 
Please tell your friend to try and be a little more original next time, though flattering ultimately its just not cool. At the very least he could have used a different song...and title...

Regardless tell him to keep at it, work on smooth motion with the slider, and planning scenes better with a flow to the video. Progress is all that matters :) There are many issues with our video, it was our first foray into shooting video and we learned a lot in the process. Im sure it will be the same for him/you. Just again, do us all a favor and be more original :) Good looking truck by the way, I'd get rid of the mud flaps first and foremost. Jealous of the mirrors/fender flares for sure

I almost miss having little tires and 2 open diffs. You could always find a challenge then...

Now I have to search for challenges, that there would have bored me to death. Looks like you had fun though, nice to see it in 4wd, and not just revving up in the driveway...

That really explains all the tire spin... :thumbup:
Forgive me it's 3am, after a long day with my Ranger.

Its only 1WD, everything is a challenge lol. But no one believed me it would go offroad so we went to the park and I showed them. Granted 4WD would have made things easier, I proved you can do it with 1WD. I kept up with the 4WD toyotas and stuff. :D

That's the video I showed him, to give him some ideas but he kinda didn't form his own, I wanted a different song and title. :/
And I'm too scared to jump my truck like that. Lol

Definitely dont jump yours, my truck isn't stock suspension wise and I have limit straps that help.

I showed the video to my buddy the co-creator of our video and he pointed out what I completely missed... that your friend STOLE our version of that song...not only was it the same song but he literally went on our video and stole our chopped version. Tell your friend to get off his lazy ass and do something himself.. absolutely ridiculous. I mean I thought using the same song and jacking the basic title was bad, but we literally spent hours working on making that song shorter and flow just like the original to fit our needs. NOT cool. Period.
