man its fun going just a little muddin. can you believe i went with my truck and its 22 inch rims? of course i didnt do anything hardcore but enough to get my friends truck stuck. he has a 2000 ford f150 rc/swb 4.2 manual and i had to go pull him out. i dont know how that happened. i think its because my truck sits higher than his and also i have wide tires (305)
he has the stock 17s and nerf bars which probably held him back

awesome video (suscribed to it on youtube). We were out at Lakeland muddin 2 weeks ago. What a blast. I found a huge hole that looked dry and got stuck lol. Nobody could make it through and finally a buddy of mine in his ram made it through, then i tried again and made it. You ever been out there?

Well, I used to go off road when my truck looked like this. I just put it back to stock last weekend and daily drive it now. I had it that way since 2002. It seems weird to see it stock now!!!

it was not very good. Around 10 maybe. It was alot for that 3.9L to turn those MTRs. City it did ok, but highway killed it. I never used overdrive.
