A little off-road driving anyone?

Hey, this is so goofy that it might be fun:

Nah. Try the Lion's back:

You should see what it looks like when they don't make it. It's a long drop.
I read that you can't try that anymore because the land is private and was just sold.

I used to go boggin when I had my Bronco. Up in the northside of Jax was a place called the Peanutbutter Hole. Many Saturday afternoons there. Fun as hell! B)

I've always liked the rough look of the VW Toureg. Here's a good reason to want one for a nice playtoy.

You are correct, the Lion's Back is no longer in use. The trails around it are still active and fairly hairy.

Yeah. That's the one I saw. The brakes failed or he overheated the brakes. Isn't that where the family member doing the taping keeps saying, "Lenny! Lenny! Lenny!" or whatever and it turns out he's done a bunch of stupid things like this.

WHAT? And get my truck dirty?

J/K My truck only has one wheel drive and is used to haul stuff. No off roading for it

Our experiences offroading in Moab are at http://www.prellwitz.org/pics/vacation/Moab/Utah0002.html. It was fun, but nowhere near as crazy as this stuff! But Kate, this shows that we really did take the Mercedes off-road!

Cool!

I've got a pretty nice Jeep that I've built up. I've done the Lion's Back. Moab is awesome, although I've never taken my Jeep, just ridden along with my dad in his.

I'm firmly in the anti-mud camp. It's such a pain to clean that it's not worth it. I like rocks and other things I can climb.

I've got pictures somewhere, I'll see if I can't find them.

Mike, that guy has to be the biggest sissy I've ever heard in an offroading video.

"I'm really scared right now" heavy breathing "This is really freaking me out"

Bah, suck it up.
