^^^^ then you've never been REAL stuck,...I'm not saying you haven't been stuck,..just not REALLLL stuck....

Because if your way of thinking is even remotely right,...airing down would've gotten me outta this?....yeah...I don't think so....





Removing no amount of air would've gotten me outta this,...which was over 5' deep

Absolutely True...

Airing down will help some, but making a bold statement like.."that's what I do because ill be damned if I have to be pulled out"....shows that you haven't TRULY experienced all forms of 4 wheeling.

Like I said...this isn't my first rodeo, I off-road more than most people...but even then...airing down can only do so much, because you also have to figure in terrain, "high centering", and different types of mud, sand, ETC ETC.

Even a guy,..like myself, that has lockers at both ends, can bite off more than he can chew,...because lockers are only good,...if you tires are actually still touching the ground....lol

Ohh yeah I made that comment about ill be damned if I have to be pulled out because I like to feel secure in what my truck can do and have the skill to get my truck out with out help because I don't want to get stuck somewhere and really don't have help around and not be able to get out. So I always try what I can first so I know what I can do and how to do it

Looked like fun, and if you have a tractor pull you out you know it was a good time.

Hows under the hood look?

I would have pulled you out! Well maybe not, I just washed and waxed my truck today. The Powerstroke does look good with some mud on it.
