Vader - We had a friggin blast on last year's PAP trip, and I hope we can catch up again this time, but you might want to bring someone else's truck to run R/C with. The majority of the park is like this, or worse:



I would say that I have a good amount of ground clearance, but at one point on a blue trail, I bottomed out so hard that I thought I had lost some dental work...

I understand there is at least one mud pit. but I didn't get to it last time. This is as close as I got to muddin (crossin in water, to stay on topic):

This means Vader might need ride shotgun unless he decides to drop his truck off at 4x4 Suspension and Gear for a bit of a makeover

Shall we start a thread yet?
to not hi-jack this thread...yeah start a new one...an start planning it!!

Not anyone I know... but this is an AWESOME video of a F250 Diesel mudding and going through and entire swamp.

Watching the truck bed get filled with water: Interesting.
Watching the truck have little issue floating around: Amazing.
Watching the dog get huge splash of swamp water out of the bed: Priceless.

I was thinking about this thread today and remembered I had these pics. This is my buddy's stock (and yes, 2wd) Dakota. And no he didn't get stuck.


And these are the best pics I have of my truck going through water.
