Oops in the mud

Enjoy the galleries, one is with my old nissan, the other one is today April 8, 2006. Don't play too hard or you will get sutck. The winch is a life saver.

Very nice stuck, I asked you in the other thread if you had water in the cab as I did during a water crossing. Your truck looks great

Nope, did not get any water even though I spent quite sometime like that. Like I said, it might be built though and sealed as a submiarine

I have to strongly disagree about the sealed part, and any interpretation of the word sealed, lol. I spent too much time getting water out of the cab to let that slide (still seeps in when it rains)

It's a long story and damn the fact that I didn't have a camera. I was going through a water crossing and the truck slid into the embankment. Just by the embankment was a drop so it made my truck lean into the embankment, I was near stuck and water was seeping into the door on the side I was leaning in on. I finally got unstuck on my own power rocking it back and fourth, and there was a pretty large puddle on the drivers side.

sinking

Hey josiah, you should have been standing on the cab, saying, I am the king of the world just kidding. Yeah, like I said, I was not expecting that but next time I will follow the track, could be easier. The thing is, with the F150, you can't always move it around as easily as a jeep or even the nissan I had before.

The truck is clean and running good, I will try attica for the next trip and see how it looks. Hard to find places like in Arizona but that's life.

Take care

se12t,

It's "Tough", not "Though" ;-). Or, you could just use the lazy spelling, "Tuff". It's also "Built", not "Build".

Sorry, just didn't want some jackass Titan owner calling you out on your spelling

Thank you for the reminder, will keep an eye on that. Can't expect a foreigner to be perfect in english I am sure I could give some spelling lessons in Frech

high centered

I checked the mud poddle after we moved the truck. It appears that only one side was deep, which explained the way the truck was sitting. In addition, the rear left wheel was not moving while the right was spinning.... I need somekind of locker for the rear and the front.

anyway, next time I will check the depth before going forward

Looks like you had an awsome time. I love seeing what these trucks can (and can't) do out there offroad.

Yep, the two truck I bought so far went through the same kind of treatment. I like to see how far you can go. By the way, you should try to fit 35" on your truck, it should work. Anyway, I just drove the toyota fj cruiser and it was awesome for a stock "SUV". I hope to get the pictures soo because I could not believe what that little thing could actually do.

Waiting on the pictures and I will post them in the albums.

I want to do that eventually. I am thinking of adding a 1.5" coil spacer to the front along with a 3" PA body lift, then I should be able to run 35s.

There is no way I could go bigger now, I had to trim a TON now with the 33s.
Take a look---
