Here my truck if half way clean, still tons of mud underneath.
just mix every chemical you have and it will come off!! haha just KIDDING!, i like simple green and purple power wooks good to, combine either of those with a pressure washer and your set especially sine its clay, i use simple green on my RC cars after a race and they are clay tracks it works wonders, just wear eye goggles for when your under the truck lol

ummm, I think my wifes honda ( Front wheel drive mind you) could make it through the amount of mud you went in, according to how much muds on your truck there.

its the tires. take a look. they are 100% street tires. most truck tires that come on trucks are like a 70% street 30% offroad blend, the slightly more aggressive looking kind. those look almost like slick's to me, rofl.

reason for failure in mud puddle: passenger car tires


even though we all know you got a big running start.. b/c there is so much splash-back on your front wheels(no 4wd, so must of been a momentum kaboom into mud puddle)
