I think the "wet" look is great, but wait til you see the "dry" look pics. This thing is pretty dirty :eek: :eek:

I have to say Zuk, I was impressed... But, damn son... your engine bay looked disgusting!
 
yeah, I'm thinking there's an engine in there, but I challenge anyone to find a label or color other than pooh brown mud in there :eek:

evidently there was a "odor" coming from the truck all the way back to NC ..... glad I was in the lead >:D

Holly crap, didn't look that bad yesterday! You (or some under paid teenager at a car wash, Joe, shut up) are gonna have a fun time cleaning it. Went to wash mine today at the Do It Yo Damn Self place... took $5 in quarters for 15 minutes at the power washer and still missed a few spots... Oh well, time to pull my dads 6HP power washer out, just got to remember to turn the presure off or I will have a Ploshied Steel Av when done... Hmmm, that might look kinda cool... :0: >:D
 
did someone say the engine was dirty >:D

gotta love the forest stripping

think the mud protected the paint any? guess we'll find out after it rains or I find the time to wash it. I think someone owes me a truck washing ;)

Actually, I think someone owes me a truck washing ;D
 
hmm, ok, thats right, I owed you one ;) so lets see, come to the next gtg and I'll wash it for you.....though its entirely possible my truck will still need a wash.
 
I'm working on getting an offroading video thrown together first.

I filled up my memory cards right around when Zuk was emptying the mud pit so I missed some, but still got a lot of good stuff.

Should have it posted here in a few.

Zuk, your AV looked pretty nice on Saturday. Gonna take a few hours of scrubbing to get it back that way!!

Patrick
Thanks Patrick, think it will get back that way sometime, however its going to take an army of umpa loompa's to get it clean ;D

Funny story though, after driving all the way home, I had to stop for gas near my office. I pulled into the station and this kid working there comes running out and says "here's a free car wash, you look like you need it" and this was before my $49 fill up (y)

It was kinda deep though, I'll have plenty of detail work to do to get back to clean. For example:

Here is a quick Pano from the top of the Mtn. Yes I know there are a couple people in the shot multiple times.

WOW!!
It appears that I have 1 VERY large "good" leg, huge waist, and a tiny, tiny gimp leg.
Do I really look that weird with my cast on? ;)

Sorry Rob but that is the way you really look.
 
I'll have a total of two videos, one of the whole offroad adventure and one of just the offroading.

The whole offroad adventure is done. It's 11 min, 30 seconds in length and is a little on the beefy side at 29mb. It's currently uploading and I'll post the link as soon as it's up.

Again, this was my first GTG with my new camera. I did a combination of pictures and video. I had no idea how much storage space I'd need and ended up not having enough.
