Memorial Day ride? AL/TN

[500]

Sorry to hear about that. Hopefully you can still have a good day hanging with the family. You won't miss much but a lot of dust anyways.

Still hate to miss a good ride.
However, hard to feel bad after reading Cummins thread.
That's a bad break right there...
Y'all enjoy, and hopefully my dealer will get going with this P1000. If not, ill have to go the Chattanooga route I suppose.

Really had a great ride. Nothing like creek riding on a warm day. Wife got a kick out of it. I think she enjoyed watching and listening to your son most of all. Not sure how to spell it but Marshal is one heck of a navigator lol.

This mud hole looked innocent I promise!





I'm glad Delton was there to pull me out. I think the trees were pretty far away.

Could a 4 year old have had a better day?!





Wait a minute, I also had a great day. I can't believe how cool it was down in the river bed. When I got home it was over 90° and felt terrible. It was almost too cool after me and Marshall splashed thru the water.

I like that new rim design. Looks a little heavy though

No but we stalled out Deltons 4500lb winch today and then used a snatch block to double the power and just wrapped the strap around the center bar on the bumper. Again we stalled the winch but the bumper didn't budge. His battery may have been a little low by that point though so it probably wasn't pulling at full strength.

So the middle bar held the snatch block tie back?

Yep! Sure did. I didn't get a pic of it but I got a video of him getting stuck and then it took us 30 minutes to get it out. His wife may have gotten a pic, not sure.

BTW, I chickened out and wouldn't try it. I know I would have gotten stuck and would have spent another 30 minutes to get me out.

This is me stuck. Never seen a rig push up so much mud. No telling how much weight we ended up trying to pull out lol. That front bumper was impressive. More impressive to me was the clutches. Couple of times I almost stalled the motor and clutches never flinched. Worked flawlessly rest of trip. I stand by my statement that there's nothing wrong with that clutch design.

 

[Delton]

Look behind my rig at how low the mud is. And how level it is. She went through there like a bulldozer lol

Here's me and Delton's mid trail high five.

I noticed I didn't start pushing up mud until we started winching. Wonder if we had winched from high up on the tree to start with it would've worked better?
