First time off-road

Well, I had planned to head up Crown King after work, but stuff to do at home forced change.....was able to head up to Sedona late morning, and hit Broken Arrow, and the X did great.
I know...I still need to remove some stuff, but what do you wnat from a newb?

Dealership clean 6/27

Off-road where it belongs!

Took the stairs like a champ, even though the newb has not removed siderails or move the spare. Wife would not get out to take actions shot...wanted to enjoy the ride.

Wife happy I have a new hobby, but she has not seen my shopping list of mods yet.

Was fun to see the Pink Jeep tourists watching to see whether I could go the same places they were going.
Cannot wait to get back out there. A new addict is born.

Your pics didn't show up.

GRRRRRR!....editing now....figuring out what i did wrong....lol

you didnt link to the pictures.. u linked to the website. right click the pictures and copy the address- then put that in the (img) tags.. you'll be golden

I fixed them for you but they are huge too big to post.

lol...I'll jsut put links and figure out how to resize them so i can get it right next time.

Nice looking truck... Or as Dbax would say...
Its Pretty!

Just my 2cents but if you intend to do any wheeling with it, we recommend you take the Aluminum step rails off

Siderails coming off very soon.....need a slider that will stick out far enough for a minor step...wife is...shall we say vertically challenged....any brand sugestions?

shrockworks makes a cool slider.

See my comments in this thread:

Ordered the Shrockworks sliders today....Gah!..$410 with shipping...time to strategically disinform my wife as to the actual cost...... 3 weeks for delivery.....I want them now!

Getting mine today. Unfinished. I will paint them myself. What color do ya think? Hot pink. Just kidding.

If you're gonna take up 'wheeling,get lots of excuses and explanations,cause you're gonna need them!!!Oh,I realize you already ordered the sliders,but Hunter Offroad in Tempe makes some cool stuff.Just a thought.

Even more fun to go where they won't go.

Got that right Conundrum.

OOOh, OOOh! That's me! Here's looking out (and up) from the inside-

Ummmm..you got a bug on your windshield. :p

That's mud Cletus.

Ok Bubba

I like going up that hill on broken arrow.. fun stuff.

My girlfriend didnt like it much though.

You want even more fun, plant someone up at the top of the stairs to block traffic and go *up* the stairs.

I don't think I'd be up for that one. Backing down that sucker would be a challenge if I couldn't get up it.

Why not combine the two and back UP the hill? That's what this yahoo out at Saguaro Lake kept doing when we were out there for the Xterra Tri.

You should clean your vents.

You could get up it. I did.

With some armor and a beer one can do many things.

Na, I'll give it a try someday, but not anytime soon, especially with the wife as co-pilot.

John, I've been trying for years to do that, the timing's never right, yet.. As for obstacles to try, there's a wedge there I'd like to run from the bottom up and out. Lemme' know next time you're headed that way. I'd like to show you and the pirateship something.

ps- Hi Mike
