Thanks man.
Took it out for the first trail run of the year and everything seemed to work good. My CB which had always found a way to screw me is sorted out and working, half door on ps lost the handle to open the door so my buddy had to dukes of hazard it the rest of the day... Thats about it besides tagging a tree lightly and denting the ds rear drip rail a tad.

Nah. Most of the folk that wheel up here drive the heaps so thats what I end up wheeling with. Theres a couple cruisers/other yotas but theyre either too afraid of gettin em dirty or are unfortunate enough to have kids/wives and cant make the weekend runs.
Everyone got stuck on the way out though and we all did our share of winching/yanking. The entrance/exit of the trail is a clay bottomed, rock and log filled ditch. There are 2 bypasses and both were clogged with stuck heaps. My van was sunk up to the sliders in a mix of mud and wooden pallets on one for a bit. Gave er and made it through the main ditch in the end. Mud sucks.
Still waiting for my buddy Dave to get a youtube whipped up.

Couple more shots from the weekend.
The "can opener" series. More than one door has been dinged when ppl freak out and turn back in too soon because of the off camber. Feels tippy in a taller rig lol.
Make sure to carefully note the angle of my dorkel head. This has now been proven to be the most efficient way to run your head to get the most out of the ram air raid that this particular angle provides thus enabling the incoming air to swirl in an inverted parabola typhoon thereby getting denser and increasing horsepower significantly.....

Awesome man! I've been wanting to try that angle out. I'm guessing you suction cupped it to the rear window?
Going in-between trees freaks me out, but you're set up for it very well with all that armor.
Weather looks great, what was the temperature?
Keep the vids coming!
