we had a real nice 2 day long rain spell here last thursday and friday, so me and some buddies hit the mud yesterday and last night. mostly class b roads, otherwise known as minimum maintenence roads. sadly that's as good as it gets around here unless you want to drive 3 hours to an ORV park down in kansas. anywho, thought i'd share some pics of the aftermath, although it does'nt look nearly as impressive now that the mud has dried. point of interest is the newly caved in passenger door and many long deep scratches from making our own trail through the woods on someone's farm at night, lol.

the door dent was caused when a buddy suggested i run my jeep along a rut on the side of this class b road. the rut was a bit deeper than it looked (about 2 and a half feet) and really narrow, with a bank on the opposite side of it. i said screw it and went for it and wound up with the jeep lodged at a 45 degree angle with the passenger side literally resting against the embankment! a little back and forth action and she pulled out all on her own, but not without ripping the rear passenger bumper cap off in the process, lol.

we did get some killer video of it, i will be getting it up on youtube asap. until then, here's some pics












mud on the dash!

 

Looks and sounds like a Coors Light moment.....I've had a few of those....the damage really doesn't set in till the next morning......then it's OMG!!! what was I thinking!!!!!

 

hahahaha....so true bro! how did you know i was drinking coors light?

way i see it is i bought it to beat the hell out of it, so dents and scrapes are par for the course, however i did realize that i need to get myself a different car for my daily driver if i'm going to keep this up, lol.

 

so you were drinking and drivin and tresspassing?????




SO KOOL DUDEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!:thumbdown :

 

sorry man, i guess my sarcasm was'nt as obvious as i thought. i was not drinking and driving, and i would'nt quite call it trespassing as we followed a minimum maintenence road til it ended in some woods and just kept on going...we did not go through any private gates or fences and did not damage any crops. i guess i should have been a little more clear on those details but i did'nt expect to be flamed for my post. sorry for the confusion.

 

no problem man i didnt catch it

its just that just last weekend we actually had one of our good seasonal roads(same as your class b) because some idiots were off the road tearin up a mud hole in a farmers field. So now its gated and only the farmers can use it.


it just sucks for us that enjoyed the road, and im not sure how tractors get down it being its about as wide as my heep and usually pretty nasty.

SORRY FOR FLAMIN MAN!!!!

 

its all good bro! i know where you're comin from, and feel the same about people screwing with crops. bad karma all the way around....the problem around here is everything is private property, including the class b roads we wheel on, but we only wheel on roads where its well known that the owner of the property does'nt mind provided everyone stays on the roads/trails and does'nt act like a jackass. if it werent for a few cool farmers we would have NOTHING to wheel. its a real drag how limited our options are in this area...one of the many reasons why i'm moving back to colorado soon

 

not to get off topic just wondering where your at in nebraska. i just moved out here last year from grand island area?

 

i'm in omaha. do you live in grand island now, or is that where you're from?

 

no i just moved out here to colorado last year i miss the old minimum maintenance roads thats what i grew up on.

 

i see....i moved here from colorado springs years ago and feel the opposite myself. i have always missed the climate, the mountains, the people...i miss everything about colorado and would miss nothing from here, lol. i plan on moving back to the denver area before too long. colorado rules!
