Out and about with the M35

[tjcouch]

Now that I have the new tires and ODIron wheels on the truck I have been taking every opportunity to show it off . . . . last weekend I had it in a local parade, last night at a 4x4 event at a local bar ( won "Best in Show" AND "Tallest Truck"), and today at a Jeep show at a local dealership.

The pics may be found on my blog if you would like to see them . . .I would post them here . . . . but a couple of them feature scantily clad girls on the bumper and I respect the family nature of this site.

Enjoy! http://tjcouch.blogspot.com/

Tomorrow it goes offroad in the Green Swamp WMA/ Richloam WMA.

(For any of the locals that want to join in the fun we are meeting at I75, Hwy 50 RaceTrac Fuel Station at 09:00. Be prepared to help unstick "little" Jeeps.)

A friend just sent me a few of her pictures from Sunday:

Cool! How did the XLs compare to the NDCCs offroad?

I can't wait to get mine on...still getting the rims the right color (Tan) first. If I could get some dry weather, I'll be done soon.

I often see ads for military vehicles "with wench." In your case, I see it has three wenches. That, my friend, is a well equipped deuce. You never know when you may need more than one "wench."

Few things surpass my interest in military vehicles. And, I don't have a problem with admitting that.

I like your philosophy as expressed in your signature, OIF Vet. May I take the liberty of correcting the punctuation? It should read "On the sands of regret bleach the bones of countless thousands who, when faced with opportunity, hesitated."

Sorry about that. It's just the English teacher in me coming to the surface.

Dunno. My truck had Goodyear street radials on it before.

Lifer,

Thanks! I made the corrections! I do wish I was better at punctuation. I like to get it right.

The "philosophy" is something I pieced together over the years. I invented the phrase, but stole some "styles."

Today it had to earn its keep!

(It did!)

 

[tjcouch]

I had the truck off road today - first time I put it through some serious articulation after the tire upgrade! No rubbing observed . . . no pics, but I'll post a video after I edit it.
