there is, just not in this thread. at least the guys with the lifted trucks were driving through the middle of the mud hole. we have guys around here with their lifted trucks who jus go do donuts somewhere muddy, or park beside the mud while taking turns driving on the edge throwing mud up on each others truck and think its cool when they drive back in town with their trucks covered in mud

the one guy with the stepside in the videos tho, his was impressive.

Which vid has the flareside?
BTW stepside is a chevy term, not sure if you knew that. But flareside is the correct ford term just fyi.

Being as a stock 2wd chevy not only stopped but also got out of that mud puddle, i am actually insulted you would call this texas mudding.

I am all for playin around in the wet stuff and not worrying about getting stuck even in 2wd, heck i go out sometime just to see how much i can coat the truck in 2wd.

But this is NOT mudding.

Then put up some of your vids of texas mudding.

If I could directly upload videos I think I still have a few older ones and one or two from two weeks ago.

Heres one pic of a truck-like vehicle we saw on our little trip. Its not a great picture because we were about 500 yds away. Close to 600 ft above in elevation and a loooongg ways away on the ground.

Now for all of you who dont know me. I got this 12inch Rize for 2800 shipped to my house. I had to get money together to get this done. So money is tight for me right now and im sooooo sorry you guys just hate my truck(not really). I am also going to Germany in less than 2 weeks and the truck is going into storage for almost 3 years or so.

While its in storage it will be going to a custom shop to have the following done to it. Theres more to the list but i forgot right now.

14inch Leaf packs made,
King Coilovers up front and then Piggy backs in the rear
Flat black paint job
Double Cardan driveshafts
40 Or 41inch Tires

But as i said already i dont have the money right now to finish the truck bc im dealing with the moving and getting my family over to Germany first. But if you guys feel the need to bash on my truck then by all means go for it. I actually like it bc it just makes me look forward to my truck being done.
