Lariat's can do it Too....
 
:p to you FX4ers...

Seriously...I'm sure the FX4 suspension would have helped on some of the trails. The Lariat suspension was a little too soft in some spots. The skid plates really got a workout on parts of the trail. Next trip up I'm getting pics of what this truck went though. Pretty amazing how it handled.

Looks like an awesome time... I'm sure I would've enjoyed it if I was in someone else's truck. LOL!

XLT 2wd's get muddy too. Its to dark right now for me to take pics but mine is the dirtiest it has ever been. :lol:

Yup, lariats are workhorses just like the rest of the lineup. This weekend the tan terror hauled around a thousand pounds of landscaping crap & it's short little 5.5' bed swallowed a generous 1.5 yards of mulch and was still able to have the undercover on. Giddy up!

This holds true for me every weekend when Im stuck pulling people out of the party spot but at least I get some cash, a lunch, and if they're a girl you never know what! :devil:

Its so fun spinning revo donuts in 4x4Low. ;)

After seeing that truck, I'm shocked RP was conscious enough to type a reply!

Looks like you had fun.

all f-150's are the same truck, diff options and configurations, but thier mecanically still the same, my xlt reg cab 4wd is excellant off road, I could not spend the xtra cash for a decalled fx4 with the 18 inch rims and Rancho shocks, just did not add up to being practical work truck.

It's hard to beat the crap of a 45,000 $ truck off road and live with your self, so till some extent your limited as to where you can go with out modifacations, even saying that, a 4x4 ford is quite impressive off the trail.

Vader, Is that you on the left? :devil:

The trails were in Flintstone Maryland - GreenRidge State Park.

That's the little Vader waiving like a goof.

how did the kids like the offroading?

vader716 May 30, 2005 09:05 AM

They were bopping back and forth in teh back seats. Got mad when I told em to put the windows up for the mud pits.

They had the most fun on their ATVs riding around the camp site though.
