I was in the area last year on September 15th and they already had snow. It wasn't super deep, but I was traveling alone and decided not to risk taking the loop. The trip to Ouray and Silverton is still worth it though, even if you don't hit the trails. The rockies are something else and you...

Sweet! Don't be afraid to get her dirty!

Greetings, I can't comment on the manual stuff but my daily driver is a Badlands Softtop in Pittsburgh. It's also my first truck period. I love it, drives great. I took it on a road trip to Moab and Back last year and regularly drive from Pitt to NYC to visit my mom. great daily driver and...

What do you hear when you turn it on? Either way sounds like it might be time to bring it in. Dieing a week after is pretty strange and may just be unrelated. How high up was the water? Over the tires? Did it reach the interior fuses? Did you turn it off under water and start it up up...

No worries! You're not to far from AoAA and Rauch Creek. See my post in the trip report forum on skill building with Kyle from Offroad Consulting, he'll teach you how to properly get her good and dirty! Highly recommend it!

Yeah after my first dunking I paid for a full detail, inside ourside and engine bay since I was getting it wrapped. After that I bought a sunjoe electric pressure washer and after I go out I try to find local do it yourself places to get a base clean before driving home. Give it a good wash...

I was a newb offroader who'd had his Bronco all of two months when I did this: I did this right before the 4th of July: Car was fine both times, (and I learned to escape during that second one). Key thing is if you've got the 2.7L engine the alternator is mounted pretty low and will get mud...

Leaving Hells Revenge Or when I sank her for the first time.

I'll say I got some Baja lights for my fog lights which I use all the time as part of a bumper kit from @4x4TruckLEDs.com during black friday 2 years ago. While prepping for a sabbatical cross country trip to Moab I noticed corrosion/powdercoating issues on the ditch lights and some of the...

I realize, like I said I have the brandmotion version of this mirror. The problem is I live in Pittsburgh which is one of the rainier cities in the country and my experience is it's basically useless in the slightest rain. On the Brandmotion I can push a button and it's a mirror, full stop...

Oh so it doesn't have a button to turn off the LCD so it's just a normal mirror? That might be a deal breaker.

Oh nice, where'd you get the camera mount? That's how my Brandmotion is mounted.

If there's one thing I've learned from work it's that nothing is ever easy on these vehicle programs. It wouldn't surprise me if the police vehicles are specialty low volume vehicles assembled by Roush or something like that. you'd think you could just tap into the existing cameras, but trust...

Is the rear camera waterproof? I've got a Brandmotion 1120 and it's frankly a piece of shit. I'm on my third one and it still has quality issues. But I've also got a soft top. I like the Brandmotion rear camera location, I just wish the hardware was actually robust.

I uploaded some videos: Driving into and Escaping the Mud Pit Dropping into an off camber trail Making my way through that trail

I need to shrink the video, but I worked the truck out no problem. I don't think I could have gone much deeper though!

Last September I took a road trip out to Moab with my Bronco, Lusitania and was joined by a coworker for part of it. We both had a blast and decided to find something a little bit more local to keep up the skills we learned out there. We signed up for 2 days of skill building with Offroad...

After a great trip to Moab last year my friends and I are thinking of checking out Windrock the week after labor day. We had a great time in Moab with a guide who took us around. are there any similar services or groups down there that we could join up with? Suggestions on Logistics/places to...

You don't even need to do the whole White Rim, Muscleman Arch is only 15 minutes or so from where the outhouse marks the split from Potash to White Rim. That's all we did and it added about 45 minutes to the trail. Dead Horse point to the Top of Schafer, then Muscleman Arch and then Potash...

Yup, though I recommend going down instead of coming up. You can see the road ahead of you instead of hood and sky, and if you've got a second person they can keep a lookout for people coming up the trail so you can pull over.
