Had to post.
Well last weeknd when out to Folsom lake and did a little 4x4 just to see how she a handled. Go through almost everything, until i got cocky. And my buddy's who were in little Samurai's when through a slightly wet spot and i stepped on it to follow him, NOT A GOOD IDEA.
Well made it almost all of the way through the hole when my back end was sucked into the 12inch thick clay/mud rather than the sandy stuff i was in. Well i got stuck good. And was in the middle of a cove and now one could get close enough to pull me out with out getting stuck them selfs so 80ft of tow rope and 2 f350, and sami tried to tug me out, no go we just snapped two 8000lb tow ropes. Well then i called my Dad to bring out supplys to get me out of the mud and his f350 tire got slick and got him stuck trying to get to me.
So long story short i had to leave both my m1009 and his truck at the lake over night stuck.
Next day had a buddy with a Chevy 1500 6 inch lift, 35 mudders, basically pulled the 350 out in 30 min. Now my m1009 had sunk another 4inches over night. He got tuck trying to get close to my truck, so he call his dad who had a 10000lb winch.
That pulled me out in about a hour.
So not to dis on fords but Chevy all the way...
And I when an bought 33 Wangler MT/R w/Kevlar so i dont get stuck any more.
I was wondering if any one else runs these on there CUCV
