Did some wheelin this evening ... Went though a good spot to flex and crawl and end up 2 wheelin it.
I also managed to bury myself in some very thick and sticky mud. Needed to call in backup to help get me out.

Here is a video of the 2 wheel flex

Here is another video of the same spot ... minus the 2 wheelin

This was in the process of pulling me out ...

Cool videos, maybe next time I can join you out there and take some footage as well. You know how I like to get the good angles up close...

Anyways, glad you remembered my number for the rescue. I have been on many recovery efforts, especially late at night. As you saw last night, I usually come well-prepared as well and get there as quick as I can. You were stuck pretty good, glad I could get you winched out...

We were at a local spot in Tallahassee ... No trac-loc. Lockers are on my to do list but nothing yet. Just the standard selec-trac 4wd system for now.

I have traction control but I turn it off when in 4 Auto and it automatically turns off when in 4 Low. Those videos were in 4 Low

I haven't been to EAFB yet but I really want to go. There was a big meet there on the 4th of July but I wasn't able to make it. Hopefully I can make it over there soon.
