Lets see your best off-road experiences! (or worst....)

I hope there isnt already a thread like this.

I want to see your best pics/vids. Crazy mud, puddles, hills, rocks, everything!!
and I really want to see you being/getting stuck!!

This was my first experience being stuck in the P/U since I bought it in Oct. It was awesome.......

Well, I don't have anything crazy... at least not the pictures of it...

the only 2 I have of being stuck are these...



This was the first time I had the truck out... it was dark, so the hole didn't look too sloppy, so I crept in, then got hung up on the transfer case sheild...



The only other one I have; getting pulled out by a Heep...



This of caurse doesn't count the hydrolock...

That was a fun night... but you know what, she drove home and has had no lasting effects!



The worst situation I've been in is getting both of my right side tires off the ground and almost rolling the truck on a burm and into a lake while dragging around a broke down and parted out truck. It started out fun, then she cought the burm and yanked me sideways, the right side kicked up and scared the everlivin crap outta me. Luckily my first reaction was to press in the clutch, so the truck fell right back down...



But in the end it's all for fun so long as you can drive her home, lol.

i have posted these before but, this is what happens when what was a small puddle before is alot deeper then it was the last time it rained. being the idiot i am, i just blast right through the middle of it with out testing the depth first.




the kicker too it all is that engine didnt burn or leak a drop of oil or any other fluid either. it also got like 2-5mpg higher then my new one does.

Here is mine. I am stuck behind the wheel because my seatbelt won't release me. Looking out the passenger side window all I could see was the ground a few feet away. Almost rolled it!

Yeah, well what you can't see in the cell phone pic is how soft and loose the "sandy" ground was there. I had driven up the offshoot, and didn't see that it dropped off at 45 degrees. My front tire was spinning in the air, and my truck was sliding slowly toward the right. Luckily my buddy grabbed his winch cable and hooked it to my rear bumper, and then took my winch cable and hooked it to a tree stump uphill. By pulling in line on mine, and letting out on his while I turned the wheel hard right, we were able to get my truck back down without a scratch. (The only casualty was the stains on my seat! j/k) Well my truck is a lot bigger now and has the solid axle and dual cases....

Whoa, didn't see that coming. Maybe it was the camera angle, but that went was unexpected.
