KEEP IN MIND this was all on a stock 02 f150 with all terians. i ended up getting pulled out by two 12,000 pound winches! for my firrst time i had a blast and cant wait for some mud so i can try it again with my 35's and 6 inch lift!! heres a picture of once i got out

2: 500HP? what "truck" exactly was this?

Nowhere, as far as I know. I just looked it up and in New York it's 16. I know that if my dad owned a nice truck like that, he wouldn't have let me do that to it. Especially without a license.

buy a freakin strap. using a chain is retarded, you'll hurt your truck, and worse, possibly yourself. your friend with that "amazing" offroad rig sure doesnt know "offroad ethics" if he agreed to attempt to yank you out with a chain...

and the california driving laws are really strict for youngins. you cannot get your permit untill 15.5, cant get your license untill 16, and cannot drive others in your vehicle (including family members) untill a whole year after your license. Califonia claims their new "1 year laws" has saved thousands of lives though...

first of all yep your right i have a permit my dad drove me. second i have a ****in job and pay for almost all the **** on my truck myself it was my dads old work truck and with 200,000 miles it was passed on to me.

next the 500 horsepower rig was a 73 ford with a 460 he built with his grandpa. and yes i was stupid to use a chain but hey you learn the hard way,ill never do that again.
not all young kids with nice trucks are spoiled thank you. i take pride in what i own thats why it is still a nice truck

anyone else wanna slam me for having a nice truck?

Um….no very few of us will participate in barely pubescent squabble. Shows lack of intelligence and immaturity.




On a side note it's almost sad to see a 454 (chevy motor) in a classic Ford truck.

In Mississippi you can get what's called an intermediate license at 15 years and 6 months if you've had a learner's permit for at least 6 months. On an intermediate license you can drive unsupervised and with no one else in your vehicle from 6 AM until 10 PM. At all other times there must be someone 21 years old or older who has their license in the car with you.

What kind of job do you have where a 15 year old can afford 6inch fabtech lift, toyo mud tires, rims, and a exhaust system plus gas, insurance and all those goodies? I guess I need a find another job

I know. I wish i made that kind of dough when i was 15.

First rule of offroading is always use a strap, not a chain...no wait thats the 2nd rule. The first rule is bring plenty of beer (for use in bribing someone to get your butt out of the hole)

And remember, it's still mudding until the last truck is stuck....then its a drinkin party (only if you are of legal age to consume refreshing beverages of an alcoholic nature)

Seriously... When I was 15 I was bagging groceries for $5.75 an hour, working 15 hours a week max. Shoot, 5 years later I work 7 days a week, make about 7 times more on a weekly basis, and I still can't afford all that stuff.
