I most certainly wouldn't want to get stuck wearing the footware you have on lol. I have only got my 700 stuck once (snow was a little too deeep), and that was the first day I brought it home. I have since put a winch on it, but I have yet to use it to get myself unstuck, these things are beasts most of the time I'm in 2wd and it'll pull right through .

I have driven through some hairy stuff. I hunt a river bottom that has been flooded for the past year, and another area that has very steep washes and hills. The only time I was stuck was easing though a hole and high centered. Fortunately, I was out in less than five minutes with the aid of my winch. I am sure when I get some rubber like Montecresto has on his machine, that will not happen again.

Cool video ct. Looks like Florida. Did 50 miles in the Ouachita's yesterday, nearly had the P-5 on its side again. At one point, I had to help the Yellow Jacket out by standing on the passengers side, holding on to the cage and leaning way out like a catamaran for ballast because we rode a very steep narrow trail up a hill that came to a sudden end and there we were faced with turning around in tight steep quarters. I'm certain that my efforts kept his feet on the ground, lol.

The video was shot last weekend at Bear Island in Big Cypress. It's the same place my 02/2016 video was shot, about 20 miles east of Naples, Fl, different trail.

I've been meaning to get another ride video out. I have about 90 minutes of video but I haven't taken the time to edit it so I thought I'd take a little stab at humor with some of it.

Hate those high narrow turnarounds; you see stories about people going over the edge from time to time. When push comes to shove, I can walk but I never did learn how to fly.

I find myself in 2WD a lot and it suffices for a surprising amount of obstacles.

I admit that I sweat the mud. In the Glades, sometimes there is NO bottom to it. I've been going out here for 30 years and have seen most everything get stuck. I comment about getting stuck in the mud with nothing to winch to in a portion of the video I shot. There are innumerable places that can happen in the Everglades.
