Hey guys! Here's some pics of the first run that I was in of the season from my local club... Tri-City Jeep Club.... not many action shots of me, cuz I was driving and haven't got the pics from the other guys yet.....MUDDY MUDDY MUDDY! Thank god for MTR's!!

1+ 2 ) Entering and exiting a small river crossing at the trail head

2) The trail ahead

3) Objects in mirror are bigger than they appear!

4) Big Red leading the way

5) The Trough - A big TJ on a CJ frame with a chevy motor - easily gets through

6) Slowly sinking but still moving - This sucker is DEEEP!

7) Coming up for air

8 ) The line up at the end - Thats me second from the front behind the red TJ

9) And the Renny grinning from ear to ear getting lots of compliments for not getting stuck anywhere....even with my lift that mud hole was half way up the doors!!! :twisted:

That looks like a lot of fun. Appears that you set a good example among all those Wranglers too.

I think these are some of the best pics Ive ever seen for a liberty performing offroad. Well done...I want more

Thanks guys...the other guys in the club were all complimenting the Renny for "keeping up" with the TJs....there were some spots where the skids got used quite well, but the Renny just kept plowing through everything the guys in the Wrnaglers tried to throw at it. There were alot of surprised looks going through some of the most challenging obstacles...but we made it unscathed.

My club has about 90 Jeeps in it, out of those there are only 02 Libertys.....Mine and another guy on this forum called Grumpee...thats it! :shock:

I'll get more shots up as runs happen. This club is known for its challenging trails. :wink:

There is no way you made through that big o mud hole!!!!!
If someone would ask me, I would bet $1000 the Liberty doesnt make it through there. Its looks like 4 foot deep heavy mud.

zeero · **Posted:** Wed Apr 05, 2006 3:51 pm

You're on....I'll make it a $1 Million that it did. It went through without a hitch. Go to the Tri-City Jeep club Forum @ www.tricityjeepclub.org and ask anyone that was there that day. Didn't get stuck once the whole day. They'll also tell you that it was tackling the biggest obstacles throughout the trail that all the big Wranglers were hitting....no problems.

Have fun with the Tri-City guys.....you'll owe me at least $1000 when you get finished over there :wink:

Jjay · **Posted:** Thu Apr 06, 2006 4:14 am

One thing I know...its all about the driver. Well done mate.

zeero · **Posted:** Thu Apr 06, 2006 9:39 am

Thanks

Anybody owe me that $1000 yet?? :twisted:

Endurance · **Posted:** Thu Apr 06, 2006 10:52 am

I think you didnt understand me right. I wasnt denying that you made it through there. I was just shocked how deep it was. When I said "There is now way you made it....." it was an ironic saying :wink:

zeero · **Posted:** Fri Apr 07, 2006 9:04 am

Its alright man.....sorry.....you can't "hear" ironic sarcasm on forums I guess! But yeah it pulled through....there was actually a little deeper one than that in the forest behind us....there was alot of this ---> :shock:

when we made it through!

It earned itself alot of respect in the club that day...before then it was looked at with doubt and the odd smirk....but now....people in the club take me a little more seriously :wink:

Did any water get into the jeep with it that high up the doors? I have wondered how watertight they are when going through creeks.

Awesome pics by the way, getting out there and wheeling with the wranglers is the only way to prove the sceptics wrong!
