I love mud. especially when all the hill climbs and and obstacles on the trails in my area are covered in it.
Can't get enough of it!
My truck only gets washed when it rains... ha

I wish it cleaned the inside too...
But that's why I'm soon going to change it to a "Spray out" sort of interior...

the only bad thing about it is cleaning it. it usually takes at least three hours to get it as clean as i want it.

the truck has been on jack stands for over a month now due to ring and pinion problems. i had to find out the hard way that i have a v6 rear end on a 4 banger so im slowly getting all that worked out. last thing to do is get the right carrier bearings and ill be set to hit the mud again.

I only have two problems with it...
I falls in your face when you're underneath the truck working,
And When i hit deep holes water gets sucked into the air box and makes the truck run like crap. ha
But a snorkel goes on this weekend. Hell yea!

Ya see, I was deep enough in that hole that I had to crawl out the driver's side window into the bed so the other guy could toss me the chain hooked to the back of his skidder. Then I had to hook 'er around my bumper and crawl back in through the window. I only had a few seconds to throw the truck in neutral, find/grab my camera, turn the camera on, and get the thing pointed out the rear window. Right about then he yells at me "you ready?". I holler back "yeah, good to go, let's roll!". Immediately thereafter I focus my attention back on the camera and shoot the pic as quickly as I could. Well, I missed. Turned out the moment the shudder opened was coincidentaly the same as the point at which the chain suddenly had a couple tons of tension applied to it. Thereby jarring the camera slightly, and causing the distortion in the captured image. That's IIRC. Anyhow, I only got the one quick pic, and it was off to the races, so to speak. My apologies for that, I really wanted that one to turn out good too. Oh well...
