Anyone know what wheels are on that white bronco?
HahaExcuse me sir, that's unacceptable.
I would still buy the Bronco every time and use it within it's limitations, and have a secondary beater just for rock bashing.
I agree. I won't wheel my Bronco as hard as I did my XJ, but I will enjoy it more. For me it's more about getting out there and enjoying the outdoors than it ever was about conquering the biggest obstacles. I'll probably end up being more of a bypass Bob on the optionals, but when it comes down to it, I won't shy away from using the truck if that is what the trail calls for.
Those deep mud ruts will get you. That's where a Badlands with backup skills and a tow strap helpWow when doing single boulders like that I can see the issues. Last weekend at Drummond island the k member or cross braces on the 2.7 is what got hung up. My skids have almost no marks. I’m regretting(a little) not going 5” on the lift. But the only time I turtles was in deep mud ruts.
Limited education my ass!I'm a person of limited education...sometimes I just say things plainly because I don't have the word skills to do it any other way. Doin my best, and thanx for the tip!
Geez man, you have absolutely peeked at your level of articulation with this post.If the comparison you used actually included the two terms "offroad ability" and "mallcrawlability", then I can understand the blow-back you experienced. Had you compared "extreme off-road capability" with "on-road driveability and comfort", then it would have been a more logical comparison.
Since I have followed many of your posts, I doubt that's how you phrased the issues back in the early days. That doesn't seem to fit your interactive style, at least from what I have seen. However, I'm certain that others have, because I've seen it numerous times.
The basic underlying problem with a lot of these prototypical debates on most off-road forums is that, in an online forum where many members can enjoy some semblance of anonymity, they often tend to use disparaging terms when referring to people &/or builds on the other side of their personal preference (e.g., "chick builds", "death wobble", "Heeps", "POS Broncos", "POS Jeeps", "mallcrawlers") rather than simply have an honest, respectful discussion without slipping in the loaded pejoratives that drag online discussions down into the gutter.
Well the driver of said badlands issued the challenge lol!Those deep mud ruts will get you. That's where a Badlands with backup skills and a tow strap help
If you are talking about the cover photo rig:
this picture was rotated 90 degrees by accident. this rock crawler is actually going straight up using a one foot drive!We should all be seeking rock-crawling advice from the true experts...
