Serious Off-Roaders

[WahooSteeler]

I read a pretty cool article this morning about how the cost of fuel, interest rates etc. is affecting everyone, and in particular the serious Off Road fanatics of Iceland. I'm sure many of you, like me, have seen pics of some of their rigs before with huge flotation tires and a lot of mods to venture out in to the snow covered wilderness. I've also seen a story about they're rigs and love for wheelin on Discovery Channel. Anyway, below is a link to the article and one of the pictures you'll see, and there is also a video. Check it out.......... :popcorn:

Just went to $3.79 at the station down the road from where I work :cry:

 

So it's on the way.

 

This is when I wish we did not live in the middle of BFE :roll:

its not much worse than living in metropolitan $#!&hole and paying 3.59 when you're also stuck in traffic all the time
