FZJ, that pic of you in the water just makes me want to flood the parking lot....
It is now my desktop background. What type of camera snapped that beauty?

Indeed, FZJ's pics make for a killer background:

Lizard Gulch
Lizard Gulch is only about 25 minutes from my house. The last obstacle is sort of tricky. Especially for an 80 as it isn't quite wide enough. I'm about 2" wider than stock with wheels and maybe a bit more with tires. I don't think I would have made it with the stock wheels. It was one of those by the hair of my chin make it slide down on my side.

Not really Wild, But it was my first time!!! I LUVD IT!!!!!
Drove past a couple Chevy's, ATV's, Dirt bikes and some Jeep's on the way out to this place . Almost everyone of these vehicles had something custom done to it, lifts, tires, etc... There were alot of hills and tight trails, but just the look on all there faces when I drove out there in my rig it was priceless.
As you drive out there its really easy, but when I got near all of them they were staged up by a pretty decent size hill IMHO (bout 20 ft. tall, and they were kinda pointing and laughing  , like "what the hell is this guy doing?", or "Where does this guy think he's going?". About the time I saw them all pointing with the smiles on there faces, I decided "F this" and I turned right toward the hill. When I got to the top with very little problems, not even in low gear, I saw the expressions on their faces change and they were all hitting each other on the arms going DAMN  .
Needless to say when I got back from all the trails and doing my miny wheelin, I passed by them all and every single one of them looked at my dirty rig, and all of them were waiving and giving the all good thumbs up!! The feeling I had at that time was priceless. Damn I luv my 80!!!!!!
So here is my contribution as small as it is, but I am Damn proud of my stock rig. *hugs the LX*
The above picture is the with my Dog Rocky, kinda like my son. He's my boy. No family resemblance jokes please...
This is coming back down one of the trails, I decided to see if I could get a little tilted.
If these arnt quality enough to be in here please let me know and I will come remove it, but either way I LUV MY RIG!!!!!!! Can't wait for my front bumper and lift to get here, deff. need to get rid of the stock tires, I was sliding everywhere in the mud. I would have gotten a little more brave if I had a winch, but there was no way I was walking back to ask one of those trucks to get me out.....
Thanks Jeremy!
