You guys need to learn how to drive...Every picture I see your always stuck in a mudhole
Me? Well I need to learn how to use my brakes....

 

[yob_yeknom]

THAT'S FUNNY!!

Grant, that is funny as $H!T!! I have been laughing for like 5 minutes and still can't stop! Got those Cooper tires like on that commercial or something? Getting enough traction to stop vertically on the side of a cliff without falling off is pretty good! Gotta buy me a set now!

 

[CBoug76]

Is that a window of a house I can see thru the windshield????

 

[95ExplorerLtd]

Uhh...well...no! Thats my little sunshade thingy I had in because it was a sunny day....

yob_yeknom- if you look really closely you'll see those were my old set of Firestones, that why I'm in the water, hehe

(I did this tonight only to get on to see that 95Exp had already done a version of it! Oh well, here goes

Well, one day I got bored so me and some friends decided to take good ol' Bessie (my explorer) out to Oak Mountain and run it some. The day was going well and the sun was about to set, so we figured we'd get some awesome action shots. We wanted to get some in the air with all the lights on!

Here's a real good shot:

After driving around a little more for a wee bit, we finally found a great ridge to ramp off of. Only problem was.. we forgot to check what was over the ridge...

And ker-splash...

The cabin began flooding so I drove as fast as I could to the nearest plot of land. I could just hear the engine sucking in water.. too bad I didn't have a snorkel.

Well, I finally managed to tug her out!

That pretty much did in old Bessie for awhile. Don't even ask the damage costs. I had six JL Audio 12" subs in the back, now ruined!! So much for those MB Quart component sets, too.

I was laughing because of how EASY I made it look!!!! lolh...sorry...i couldn't resist!!

 

[Sinjin]

Dont forget tomorrow is the last day! The "Serious Explorations" video is still up for grabs.

 

[2001ExpSport]

One more

OK, here's one more vote for me.

Magnetic tree, who knew......

 

[Goober]

Looks like someone was trying the 'Dukes of Hazzard' slide around the corner and got...treed( insert Rosco laugh)..LOL I still can't believe you do that to your new truck. Mine is ten years old( with a new paint job) and I'd die if it got scratched.

 

[2001ExpSport]

Goober, it was no biggie. There were some ATVer's there that held the tree off my truck as kampy winched me out. Minor scuff, buffed it out.

I have so much trail pin striping that I just gave up trying to buff stuff out.
