It ran Carnage, Holy Cross, Slaughterhouse, Wheeler Lake, Rampart Range, and several other trails in CO, and many of the trails in Moab, UT (Gemini Bridges, Fins n Things, Monitor and Merrimac, Hells Revenge, Cliffhanger, some others out there). It was my daily driver, was lifted 3" and had 33" tires, but other than that, mostly stock. It was IFS, so articulation wasn't great, but honestly? It still rocked the house...IF I ever had another one, I would do a SA swap, though. But I like my Jeep too much to even consider buying another Toy. If I buy anything, it'll be an older J10 to use as a tow/recovery rig.

It always did what I needed it to...but I'm not one to stomp on the skinny pedal off-road unless absolutely necessary. Almost lost it in Moab coming off of M&M on a washed out trail. Only thing that saved me from the earth that gave out behind my rear wheel was stompin' on it...and it handled it just fine. The buddies behind me said they thought I was going over the side, it was about a 20 foot drop, and that my drivers side rear was completely in the air...I felt the rear start to go, and it was either drop, or stomp. I guess what I'm trying to say is it isn't about the power, but how you drive off-road. Power is nice, but good driving wins out over that every time IMHO...

Yeah...I'll have to dig it up, I have moved a couple of times since I owned it, and it's on a portable hard drive somewhere...I'll try to dig it up and post when I can...
