You have to drive around with a muddy truck to show that you know what trucks and tow hooks are for. We usually go wheelin with a group of about 15 trucks and on the way home we usually stop at a bar/restaurant in the nicer part of town and park our muddy trucks next to the shiny humvees in the parking lot and then we laugh at them. Who cares if its a $30K truck its still a machine, beat the crap out of it till it breaks, then fix it and do it again. My truck is offroad more than it is on (although it is an old truck its not a rusty beater), and my mustang was making passes at the drag strip before i even had 1000 miles on it.

Not as fun to laugh at as your painted door and tailgate handles.

To each his own. Some like to dress their trucks up in mud, some like to paint things that weren't painted from the factory.

Dress their trucks up in mud? Sounds like you need a can of sprayon mud. I laugh at those who claim their truck is offroad more than on yet have no pics of this "offroad action" they are so often doing. Wheeled the crap out of this truck when it was stock and continue to push the limits lifted, I have had countless damage (water, quarter panel smashed, snapped steering rack, tcase problems, many scratches running the length of the truck, etc). I don't have anything to prove to people around here, my paint suffers enough. I like to imagine the fun I'd have if I had a beater.

yeah I remember the story and you even asked me if I had water damage after my dive anyway, I am still using, just wish that Indiana would have more interesting places, other than mud park. Going on rugged trails, finding old mines, and so much more, damn, Arizona was great.

Hey Josiah, Did you check the recent pictures in that quarry?

I don't think so, link me. I used to go quadding on a beautiful trail which is now closed here due to a new owner (happens way too often), there was an abandoned mine with trucks that hauled the material out of there on that property, absolutely beautiful. Thanks to hippies, if you guys are not part of a green leaf fighting organization do what you can to join one because there are too many out there trying to shut this pollutive sport down and not enough fighting back. Tread lightly.

Yea I'm a little confused. Funny little rich kids?

I had considered buying a KR too but didn't want to wait an extra year.

My KR would look the same as my Lariat though....

Shiny....covered in mud....Shiny....repeat.

ain't no rich kid here...just someone who plays and works his truck hard and then enjoys making it look great again.

If I was afraid to take my truck on the trails I wouldn't have bought it.
