Went out to a local offroad park today, was suppose to meet up with a Maine4x4 member, but something came up on his end. So I explored for about an hour, then went home.

I tried to stay out of anything that would leave me stuck, heck, half the time i was in 2wd.


Waiting to meetup




my co-pilot


Poser shots




Airing back up, I really need to get my co2 tank filled back up




on a tight trail, I hit a rock and slid over to a tree, leaving a nice dent on the passenger side doors




Had a great time, will have to plan better next time

My truck is almost perfect but the other day I got a long scratch in the bed side from a tree branch on a tight trail. I don't mind any damage I take IF it come from wheeling.
The only way to prevent a vehicle from getting bumps and bruises is not to wheel it at all....and that's no fun!
