Yup, no issues. No one else wanted to trail as hard as I did so I may have to make a road trip this summer. We spent alot of time pulling my buddies envoy out. That was kinda lame. Other than that it was great fun!
Oh yeah, 4Route almost rolled. Scared the bajesus out of me. I wish I had gotten a better shot. She got out of it pretty quick.

My friends stuck envoy,

You missed alot of pulling and tugging. My buddies Envoy got REALLY stuck. TWICE. 4Route almost rolled. Scared the crap out of me. I was in front of her and got the best view. It made us all nervous. I wish you could have stayed. It was great fun. We have hundreds of pics, they'll slowley hit the net. Takes alot of work. But hey, if you want to go out sometime I'm open to it. (If I have gas money!)

I had a great time albeit short I'll be ready again in a few weeks. I need to put my winch together and install those ball joint spacers. I was pretty impressed with the way my truck handled since it was my first run in it.

I had a blast today. I came out of it with very little damage. I was very suprised with how well my truck with its stock clearance/suspension.

When I get my film developed I will post some on here... My digi pics were not that good.

i just finished cleaning the truck ... something is messed up because i can't go over 40mph without the steering yanking my arms side to side.

you boys are so mean ... i can't believe the things you took us on!

oh ... and i almost flipped TWICE, TWICE. everyone was saying "no no no, you're fine, you're not bad at all" then i get out of the tippy rut and you all say "oh man, i was holding my breath!" and "i thought you were going to flip!"

hehe.

anyone get a pic of me almost flipping? thanks for the good time guys ... sorry i kept getting stuck. it was my first time and you were dragging me through hell! i'll get new tires eventually though, maybe. and i'll let you know later whether i'm in shock or all good.
