Just some wheeling today in washington. Went to a nearby ORV park... Trails were a little tight in some areas, but didn't stop me http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Awwwwww. Would you look at that. We take Doc out wheeling with us and show him the ropes and now he's all growed up and wheeling on his own. I think I'm going to cry.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gifhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Looks like fun!! Very nice pictures. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

How bad are the "pinstripes"? Have you cleaned and inspected yet? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_redface.gif

It is pretty out there, the light from some of the pictures looks low, morning or evening maybe? Looks like it was a pretty day.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Very sweet Doc!

That does look like a beautiful area of Washington. I was tempted to wheel there passing through to Seaside Oregon one time. Pinstripping on black looks painful. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Doc, that looks like a great time. Get some shields for that beautiful truck. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Speaking of Ghey, notice the hot pink ORV sticker from OR that Drty recommended I purchase! (on the rear window) http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif Luckily, the nice Washington sun bleached it out! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I've been considering shields, as well as the drty winch, gobi rack, new tires, etc... http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif Don't know what I'll start with though...

I thought the ghey pink sticker would bring out the nature glow in your pretty cheeks. LOL!!! I got Roxie's old yellow sticker since my current ORV sticker expired and I didn't want a fruity pink one. I only need this yellow one for 6 months until next year's color will be available.
Plus, I just renewed my plates and I got a pink tag anyway. Dual pinks would have been too flaming.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

How did the stock tires handle in the sandy stuff?

I have a trip planned to the Great Sand Dunes here in CO, so I'm curious what to expect

Not too bad, although I am by far not the most experienced wheeler. The light dirt is what kept me from gaining traction, and is also why there was such a huge ledge to get over... This stuff was definately lighter than sand....

Kennewick. It's about 10 minutes SE from here. I've heard there's a mud area along the columbia river in Pasco which is just north of here. Will check it out when I get my rig back.

I still haven't cleaned the vehicle yet...it was in the shop last week for a new air conditioning compressor...and outlet covers.... I'll probably rinse it off tomorrow. My brother has a black cherokee and he's got some really bad stripes.... http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif
