Did you explain to her, what women go and spend hundreds of dollars on at the spa you can for her for a $40 entry fee and have fun doing it

The difference is the manor in which it is applied!

I loaded some of the raw video to youtube in case anyone interested.

damn those buggies with their coil overs, full width 1 ton axles, super flexy custom long arm suspension, and ji-mungous tires. don't they know it's the challenge that makes it fun. Not getting up an obstacle with no effort at all











yeah, ok! I do wish I had one too

Man those buggies are just sick! everything we were having fun on they just walked up like a damn curb.

Hey, guys. don't fret about those buggies too much. They might clear a 6' high vertical wall of limestone like a speed bump, but our are daily drivers! Bet they can't do that.

I would drive a FRING prius as a daily driver if it meant having a rock buggy

The happiness I get from driving my Jeep everyday more than makes up for the inability to climb that wall like it didn't exist. Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that having one of those buggies wouldn't be great. What I'm saying is it's acceptable for me to have to work at getting over an obstacle like "The Big Hole" if it means I get a totally bad a$$ daily driver. I think of it as a trade-off. Most vehicles on the road can't do what my daily driver does. Sure those buggies can do WAY more, but I'll sacrifice a bit of extreme capability for the capability of enjoying it EVERY SINGLE DAY!

Like someone else said in the thread. They make it look soooooooooooooo easy. What's the fun in that. We all appreciate something more if we have to work a little for it.

I'll take my jeep over a buggy every day. Actually, if I could, I'd rather have both my Jeep and a buggy. Now that I think we can all agree on.

Hear hear! I agree!

one day I'll have a long arm kit, coil overs, and 40" pitbull rockers or growlers... one day

Oh don't get me wrong I LOVE my jeep but when I have a buggy, and I will have a buggy, the thrill of building it and it being able to walk up obstacles like Big Hole as if it was just a curb. That WILL put a smile on any hard core jeeper's face!

sorry for making things look easy. It has beenn a long time coming. I have been building the buggy for almost 8 years. I have been junk yarding almost the whole thing. I built it to be a beast and treat it as such. I also get to run the trails alot and know which lines make it look easy. There is still stuff out there that kicks my ass. Please dont take it personal if I come blowing through the brush and dive off the side of the creek. I was actually coming to check on yall and then blasting off, but as yall remember I decided to leak check my dads chainsaw. Oh well. I had a blast wheeling w/ yall. Many times I wish I had a jeep as yalls. A/C or heating would be great as would a dry place to sit. dont slam on the "small" jeeps, they definetly have their place.


thanks again for coming last weekend and hope to see yall again
