My club had our second Mud Bog & Trail Ride event last weekend, we had to shut down the "Stock" trail after the second group because even my Jeep on 32's got stuck, and this was on a bypass trail we cut to go around another bad spot. First time through, we had stock Grand Cherokee's which made it. -- o_o_o_o /| ,[_____], |ŻŻŻL --O|||||||O- ()_)Ż()_) ŻŻŻŻŻ )_) |
