I never understood why people dive through water with their trucks? It can be very bad for the engine.

FYI, I got stuck in a Hay field last weekend pulling one of my utility trailers. No pics sorry, but I was in a hurry to get to the wash before the mud dried. It cost me $40 to spray off the truck and to get underneath all cleaned up. Well, it's still dirty. I'll never ever go mudding. Ever. It's a total PIA to clean afterwards. Around here the mud is clay which doesn't wash off easily at all. I'll keep it a pavement queen or hit dry trails.


I ended up backing out of the field at 10-15mph (as fast as i could get going through the much) with the trailer hooked up because I kept getting stuck going forward because I had to turn and the mud wasn't letting me. The trailer is what killed me because it ha dual axles and that's like pulling a rock when turning.

Ha, you read my mind. Mudding is fun as hell, the cleaning afterward is just the price of admission! Plus, there is nothing like seeing your it go from a muddy mess to a shiny clean TRUCK. And the looks from the other drivers in trucks is classic too, cause they know your not afraid to use it like a truck. I haven't seen many muddy toyota tundras.....

That exactly correct I enjoy washing it after mudding and I had my truck covered in mud and as I was driving down the road other truck drivers would honk and give me the head nod of he had a f@*king blast and it still looks great today except i had to wash the truck when it was 35 degrees out
