Talking 600 Acres

Well, this weekend was an absolute blast. I pushed my truck to the near limits and it passed with more than flying colors. I did stuff in that truck that I never thought I could. I darn near pulled out every truck that was with us, including powerstroke's 150, a submerged Josecuervo's 150, a Bronco two that was plowing mud with his front diff, breaking an axle, and many a ranger. But to top it off, after dark, we spotted some lights that appeared to be not moving. From the parking light we could hear the engine race of a stuck truck. So i went back there to find a buried Toyota 4runner. I hooked up to him and in two snaps, pulled him out of the hole. I didn't know but he had all four wheels locked and I still pulled him for a good twenty feet or so. Then a hot shot girl with her big, bad Dodge 1500 with 32x9 TSL's buried her self. Three yanks and she was out but I didn't see a nasty rut in front of me (it was dark) so my entire front end dropped in. The girl in the dodge wanted to pull me out so bad but I said screw you, I'm getting out on my own and I did. The goodyear MTR's are a GREAT tire!!!!. If you're looking for a good place to mud with some technical climbing thrown in, 600 acres in Iowa is a great place to go. Pictures are being developed as we speak.

That sounds like a blast! You could have made some serious $$COIN$$ pulling those rigs out but its more for the pride of ownership and fun, right? As you can see, I live in Iowa so where are these 600 acres?
