This was the first time for the passenger in a 4WD. He called it wild.
A little out of focus but you get the idea.

I stopped for the photo and this is the quality I get.

Well I wouldn't say any of these positions are places other vehicles wouldn't touch, but I'd say it's more a testament to a solid vehicle that can be wheeled hard for years and still be reliable and still feel put-together.

Here's a few pics when I had my '97...

I don't think it's any more tippy, I think it's just that you have a led foot and it never mattered in the '91. Do you have sliders and bumpers on the '94 yet? That might be part of it - more weight down low.

Yep. You have good eyes. That is a jeep. My old jeep. You're right.. it couldn't flex worth shet..., but sure could run the hammer trails in Johnson Valley.. just fine

In that pic, your seeing a glimpse of what happened in a matter of 3 sec. I was a sneeze away from flopping it.. so i threw it in reverse and they snapped a pic just as i did.

Actually, I was referring to off-road capability, albeit rocks, mud, hills, etc.

Who's got a link to that Crazy George run? I can email it to someone if they can post it.. you know the one where he rips through that course, then tips over at the end?

And since we're accepting poser shots, here's another one.. . that other pic of my rig was from Wipeout Hill in Moab.. couldn't have made it down w/o Treeroot spotting!
