jaekl Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I don't go out of my way to go thru the mud but out of curiosity I have a question. From the photos it looks like you will go thru anything, but how to you establish where you shouldn't go? I'm sure everyone has heard stories of construction sites where they lost equipment in the mud. (sink holes) Has anybody lost their truck because they ventured a bit off the trail? I understand the thrill of the challenged and getting stuck and overcoming it is the whole point, but is it possible to sink so deep there is no pullling out? Is it mud or is it a swamp? I would think swamp buggies could be worse because you can venture farther from solid ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Rule #1: Only wheel where you are explicitly allowed to wheel. Rule #2: Never wheel alone. Rule #3: Use your head and look before you leap. It's easier than you think to get yourself helplessly mired if you don't follow #3. If you go farther than your longest strap and someone needs to venture in to help, there's a chance you can both get stuck. Sanctioned muddin' events are the best. There always seems to be one of these around (I'm referring to the dozer, not the Bronco, but either one will do :D ): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaekl Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Good rules Pete. Flat lands near a creek are typically thick deposits of sediment and can be very soft. Had my tractor stuck a couple of times. I'm careful not to get too close to the edge of the creek or spinning wheels suck it down the slope. The long walk back to the house to get whatever to get unstuck takes some of the fun out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenF350 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Great pics!! Its to dark for me to take pictures now, but my jeep is outside pretty much covered in mud from a little trail I built through my woods. The trail swallowed an S-10, by my Comanche and a friends Cherokee had no problem. Funny how that happens!!! Ill post pics soon if I don't hose it off 1st. I know theres some new scratches under there :headpop: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
