wow that looks alot like my incident out at a pond... First thing i would do is drop your tranny pan and flush it out that way-- next rewire your whole truck--at first i thought i made it out scott clear but then every thing started going wrong, as in electrical system- plus it will take about a month for everything to dry.

Wow, I've never heard that one before! Isn't that a bit extreme?

Thats what I thought too. I'll just wait it out until something goes wrong. As of now everything except keyless entry is working fine, and it isn't stock, its a bulldog and the computer got dunked.

OMG WTF were you thinking man. ¿Were you trying to get it in the middle of the lake and put it up on it's side?

 

[Mp3SUV]

the pics were cool and all, but the video made it a million times better. wow, thats THE most insane thing ive seen done with an Explorer.

Btw, nice wheels, i got the same ones (AR-23's).

 

[Nicaraguense]

you'd think

You'd think a guy that has put that much $$ in a lift and front buper and lights and the fact that he put $$ in BFG's would have got the BFG Mudders if he was gonna do that to an Ex. I mean, hey unto each his own. nice Ex, I sure wouldn't do anything like that to it or mine... Especially MINE. But, hey, if I did, I'd make sure it had mud tires and not A/T's

 

[Nicaraguense]

Okay

I see your point and you are right. I was a bit to critical. I take that back. However, I never resorted to name calling.

 

[bipolarbob]

I did.

And your post has been deleted and you will be banned if it happens again.

It was his opinion and he made it clear it was. We all have them. Doesn't give you the right to call him a p***y or anything else. Keep it clean or take it else where.

Provoked?!? You're not serious. Is this your Explorer??? Is this your thread???.......No, on both accounts. I didn't say anything about apoligizing or anything of that matter. Just cool down and let people voice there opinions.

 

[Nicaraguense]

Thanx Derric

I wouldn't worry about it too much. It is amazing what that lil ignore feature does. I'm not to worried about it now. And, my opinions were a bit harsh.

Hmm... this thread has gone a bit nutty since I last was on!

Anyway... Byrd... was that other video with the better angle of you diving in done on a camcorder or was that just an MPG on a digital camera or something? That was a great angle.

Which he shouldnt have to do... Yall should know how to get along with each other! DANG IT!

I also want to add to what Caleb said, when people openly attack and insult the moderators when they're trying to enforce the rules it creates a very difficult situation. It creates a conflict of interest for all of those involved. You take a clear situation of wrong vs right, simple corrective measures and blow it into a nine foot hole in the wall. Then the moderator who has been layed into can't really do anything about the attack or he becomes "self righteous" or "self serving", "using his moderator priveledges in his own argument" when he hasn't tried to start an argument at all, he's just being a moderator doing his job.

When this happens Rick has to take the time to step in like he did here to be fair, doing the job that he's given to all of us, moderating.

All of it can be avoided by disagreeing with moderators IN PRIVATE. Its fine to disagree, just do it in a PM. If you dont get anywhere, contact Rick. All you're doing by laying into a moderator is making yourself a target for banning and wasting everyone else's time.

Now, I agree with Caleb, back to the original discussion.

I havn't really gone offroading much because well... I'm more interested in the street look. But when I went w/ hokie, I got mud everywhere under my Ex. And I know I'm not going to get it all off, EVER. I'd like to see what kinda goodies Byrd finds lurking in his ex over the next couple of years. Hopefully no fish was stupid enough to get stuck on the underside of your ex... that would just get disgusting.

Hey guys, apparently I missed some carnage on the thread this weekend. I was gone to southern Maine picking up my gf. Anyway, Webster I believe that other guy that too the video had a digital camera with MPEG capability. I have a digital video camera that was used for the long video.
