Nice. I'm sure you are hooked as well. When I first started wheeling my truck I was blown away every time because I would extend my limits to what it can do ( and what i would make it do) But yeah there unstoppable, even with stock.

the thing that ALWAYS makes my day is when I can keep up with my Jeep buddies, and even surpass them. not so much the amazing ability of my truck in its stock form, but the looks on their faces... everytime...

I too was thinking that, we have paved city streets here that are rougher than that....
I do envy you though, I just purchased a 91 4Runner and can't wait to hit some trails, I'm having a hard time finding some though, might have to hook up with a local club.

Haven't off-roaded yet

Anyone in western WA know of a good trail system for a newbie? I don't know what my yota will do yet. I'm afraid if I start I'll never stop!
