Proof of use of 4wd :D

Post by 2kwik4u »

Took the ZR5 out this weekend at got it a little bit muddy. Just now getting around to uploading the pics.

More proof that I'm actually using the 4wd :D

I seriously need some lift, and bigger tires if I'm going to continue along these paths.

The creek where the truck is stays pretty shallow for the most part. The other leg easily gets over the bumper in the first 25-30 feet :(......

Awesome pics! 8) But I have to say, kermit is bone stock except for a tb crank and 30x9.5 BFGs and none of that terrain looks unconquerable; granted, nothing looks the same in person. You'll never know until you try, or as we like to say down here, "Hol' my beer and watch'iss sh*t!" :shock:

(EDIT: Kermit is the name of the truck [its green] if I've failed to mention that before :) )

Great pics! Am glad someone else has an "ankle biter" (Mrs Hoff has two pekingese) :lol:

You have got to come down for an afternoon, even if it is to have coffee. I am sure you know what terrain is just east of you but, I am sure most members would be surprised at the difference.

Mrs Hoff would like to know the breed of the very clean looking "pooch". We couldn't make it out and I am afraid to attempt to spell what I think it is on a family oriented websiteImage

Those "puddles" as my GF calls them are really ~18" deep :eek:....and like I said it gets deep quick in the creek.

The puppy is a Shitzhu (I think thats right). She's about 9months old.

Perhaps we can organize an eastern KY meet of some sort?!?!?

Just giving you crap. :wink:

That's more off road than any of my 4x4s have ever seen!! Mine are more for snow than anything and even that is very little sometimes.
