Lucky, some times I have a hard time breaking the tires loose.  Also, I peed a little when I saw the pic of the tree inside the cab o:

Yer tires are too large, you also have a 4.7.  Get some gears and light em up Cool

I've done a bit off roading up here in the snow and never come across that kind of problem.  Scary stuff.

Wow that some impact.  Looks like it didn't do much damage to the jeep which is good.  When I drive out in my pasture (before it gets mowed for hay) that's a real possibility with all the trees I have around my lot.  I don't really go fast enough though to make that happen, as soon as I hit the log I'd know and back up and get out to look at what's down there.

Same here, I don't feel like I drive crazy when I'm off road looking for camping sites but sometimes those logs come out of no where.

That's some scary stuff right there.  The guy coulda been castrated.  I guess I'm lucky that my hobbies don't include cars, I use mine to get from point a to point b and that's about it.  It saves me $$ and it's better for the environment.

See, all that could've been avoided if you would just rent a uhaul when you need it and drive a car like the rest of us sane people Grin

x2, we should all just be driving to go fast Cool

Scary indeed, but he would be back out there no matter what.  Guys with jeeps are like cultists without any of the crazy membership fees.  They go offroading like it's a religion.

Ain't that the truth.  I've seen guys roll their jeeps and drive away in them.  A buddy of mine took me out on the trail last year and he was doing some crazy stuff that I'd never think of doing in a vehicle that I bought, but he was having a blast.  If he would never let something like this, especially if he didn't get hurt turn him away from hitting the trails.

I've actually been able to help a guy flip his jeep back over.  He was tryign to cross a stream and the rocks on the other side proved to be a bit shakey.  He had a winch though so he pulled it out and hooked it up to my truck and winched himself out.  I suppose he coulda used a tree but he said that he was missing his tree saver strap and didn't want to damage the tree.
