I call shotgun!

Seriously, I'd love too, but my Jeep isn't near ready. I'm restoring a '56 Willys CJ5 back to showroom condition, when it's ready I'll be more than game for mild wheeling. The wife and I took her brand-new Kia Sorento partway onto Pole Hill Road up in Estes Park this weekend, I don't think she'll be allowing any more of that. Something about the undercarriage bashing into rocks got her all tweaked..... No sense of humor, ya know.

Well mine is ready to be tested before it goes under the knife. I just want to see for myself what exactly I really need to upgrade.

What is your definition of "mild" 4 wheeling?

A few weeks ago I went on a "not bad at all trial". I was told there was only one slightly difficult part. Well, the good news is I had no body damage and didn;t break anything. The bad news is I was worried as hell because the Boss (wife) told me I better not damage anything if I went off-road.

When I say "mild" I mean I have basically a stock TJ that I dont care to break. In other words on a scale of 1-10, It cannot exceed a 4-5.

In Alaska there is a bar, Call of the Wild I used to sit and watch people with trucks like that and modified snow machines do the same thing. Come to think of it I've got an extra truck or two hmmm..............................

I love Top Gear!

Search youtube for 'Top Gear' if you like cars and/or British homo(u)r. It's a great show and they really should carry it over here (though BBCAmerica might start showing semi-edited versions of one of the recent seasons soon).
