tested out the suspension last week.

i was in havasu for the past week and a half for the ijsba world championships and thought i would have some fun in the dirt after the desert party on sunday. well, as you can see, i got stuck. what can i say. it was 5:30 in the morning, it was dark, i had a few drinks in me, and i had a female passenger who wanted to go wheeling (dont tell me that you have never crumbled under the pressure). i made a left when it should have been a right. oh well. cell phone didnt work, and lucky for me an off duty cop stopped and gave us a ride. heres the worst part of the whole story. are you sitting down? my brother had to pull me out in his DODGE! sorry guys. flame on. mitch

how funny, the only times I've EVER got stuck four-wheeling was when trying to impress a girl!
And odn't worry about getting towed about my a dodge... I've seen many weird tows in my life.
I've seen a stock 2 wheel drive tow out the most modified 4-wheel drives. I've seen a jeep tow out a hummer. I've seen an explorer tow out a chevy 3500. I've seen an explorer tow out a military personnel carrier vehicle (I've even got pics!) .

Matt-

Please post pics of the Explorer towing out the Military personel carrier...That would be great to see.
Knock on wood, I have been luck, and never gotten stuck, except for on my fourwheeler, going through a peet bog, and sunk it to the to of the seat....Thank God I had a Warn on the front.

That's what tends to happen when you try to use a 2-wheel drive like a 4-wheel drive.

Thanks...

Thanks Matt for posting the pics...Goes to show you that smaller vehicles can also get the job done that larger ones can't....Not always true, but sometime.
