    Unhappy It looked solid......... thats what i thought

    After a solid night of partying while camping in Waiparous alberta, i thought since theres tons of heep trails that i would go off-roading on saturday. I think cause I survived Moab that the trails here would be "nothing" I was right, they were nothing......... until this happened....




    the sun and all the luck in the world was with me on saturday, because the mud and water was about the width of a hamsters hair away from the alternator. And the worst part........ i cant say it.... too horrible........ i got pulled out by a .... a..... heep... not just one.......... but 2 but at least i got justice, it took 2 heeps pulling each other to pull me out. i told them that it would have only took 1 isuzu.

    Given the angle you went in at, it is likely your alternator got mud in it...hose out that sucker good!

    Oops, missed that. And I am surprised the mud didn't get there looking at the pics, but that is good.

    Hahahaha yeah I was super surprised that the alternator wasn't touched. The front cladding pushed a ton of mud so it created a little pocket under the front. But when I was getting pulled out the front skid and cladding just scooped the mud and made it hard for the heeps. It took almost $30 to clean her, and I'm still not done.

    Sure Sue.... now you tell me

    I guess I deserve it, I was trying to look like a and impress a girl but got ballsy and ended up looking like this and felling like this and
    But it was a fun experience that I am sure I will not live down.
