goodtimes said:Have I done that recently????
I did it once in California in front of a group of new land rover owners who were out for their little off road orientation thingie.....the looks on their faces when a stock jeep took the same line they did...but in reverse...was classic. :violent-smiley-031:
goodtimes said:You shoulda seen me "self recover" on Dishpan Springs right after I got my jeep. Me, a couple other jeeps, and a couple of rovers I was showing around got to the creek crossing ("Deep Creek", AKA T-6), where we found 2 penis extensions (Ford superduty's with way too much lift for the ~36" tires they had). I got out and looked over the rock garden (before the bridge was in place and the rock garden was moved up the trail). The Ford owners told me it was impossible to get through there...so I had to prove them wrong. On the very last rock I had to clear, my belly pan got hung up. I'm sitting there in 4-lo, both lockers on, idling, with all 4 tires spinning (slowly). I get out (jeep still spinning all 4 tires), look back to see them telling the rest of the group something to the effect of "I told him it was impossible"....I grabbed my rear bumper, lifted up and pushed, at which time the jeep gets enough traction to start moving forward (remember it is still in gear, idling), I look back at them, wave, walk back to my jeep which is now driving itself up the trail, get in and proceed around the corner.
There were no comments from the peanut gallery when I walked back to spot the rest of the group through.
