Yeah took my 89 out to get it stuck and I suceeded! All I can say is the auto trans sucks and so does the 3.0. I swear my 22r has more nuts than this thing does! Also blew a brake line as well. Damn NY rust!!

HARDXCORE!
you are a real wheeler!

 

Now, now. Don't blame the 3.0 on you getting it stuck!

 

what does the auto trans have to do with it? people get people stuck not auto gets people stuck.

 

Trust me if I had the 22r in that I would have had enough speed to get the truck over that hump. That 3.0 has throttle response of a diesel. On my old 87 4x4 22r 5 speed with those same tires, I went in stuff worse than that and never got stuck. I'am not going to blame it all on the truck though since I didnt think it was that deep.

looks like fun. I need to get out and get muddy soon. hoping we get some snow in the mountains in the next month or so.

 

personally...its more fun getting stuck and dirty than getting out clean...its all part of the game....oh and just bustin before...i'de prefer a 5spd any day over auto...i had to get an auto so my wife could drive it...sux...be sure to show us the next pic of you getting stuck...

 

You lose alot of torque than that of a stick and 180 ft lbs of torque is nothin to scream about. Maybe if I had a stick it would be better? I never drove a 3.0 stick, they all were automatics.
