I havent found that spot yet in my Cherry. I did however find it many times in my last rig.

This one I Hydro locked at about 5Krpm thankfully made it trough the bad stuff want was on the way out of the ruts before it stopped. cross member is buried like 4 inches into the mud on 31"s. thats me trying to get #6 spark plug out It didnt come out that night. Ended up breaking 7 straps and ripped off my friends receiver on his K5 getting me out. once i got the plug out the next day, cleared the water and JB welded a new one in it started right up. not bad for 300K+ miles

Pea Gravel at Badlands was the last straw for me. A few years ago when I had no idea about Offroading I baught the biggest pickup truck I could afford thinking thats what you need to offroad. It was a Ram 1500 with like an eight in shortarm lift. I got burried in this stuff up to the frame and the Badlands owner came and pulled me out in his stockish (or stockish looking) XJ. I think I sold that stupid Dodge that weekend. Hehehe.

This hole snuck up on me. Looked okay on the surface but then sucked me right in. Had to wait about 20 min for a buddy to come winch me out.
