So mikey and I ran freeway on saturday just for picture purposes. Picked every line that we dont normally do just to push the jeeps to their limits. No breakage to report, i did back into a rock as i was backing off of another rock lol. Almost tipped my jeep a few times. All in all a fun trip. Theres a lot more pics on my facebook but heres a few.

ya it was fun. Im not sure about mikey but i know my jeep did more than i thought it would. Mainly that rock above the "gate keeper" a bit where you can go around it or over it, i went way to the left to see if i could make it up it and i managed to get my front up it but couldnt go all the way over it. time to invest in a front locker i think.

Every time I see your jeep you have a different front bumper.

They were given to me, so i run em. I used to just go doorless. Did that all last summer. I dont like the design of them but i have been adding things to them. like ammo boxes for more storage area, going to mount my first aid kit as well.

All in all they look like a penis LMAO

ya. Freeway can be entertaining when the "wrong" lines are picked lol. It gets boring running it the normal way everyone does when theres a big group. So it just being two of us made it a lot more fun than normal.

Mickey, half that rock is missing now (it gets smaller every year). Years ago, you couldn't squeeze a Jeep by it; everyone had to put their tire over it and climb, so most people took the left fork instead. Henry knocked part of the rock off when he got his suburban wedged in there 3 years ago. There was also a rumor that someone with IOR knocked part of it off with a sledge to avoid body damage. The OGs used to call it "the Can Opener" or something like that.

sorry mikey figured id let you post you own pics lol. And i at least posted one of you :drinks:

As for the finger, it didnt even look like a big part was missing. I do vagley remember having to go over it. But now the "road" is dug out big time that it seems sketchy to go over it now. I dont think you would have an issue Chris but i just wasnt going to try it lol. Im sure it can still be done.

It looks plenty wide enough that anyone can drive through now, even monepit (if he ever gets his ass back on the trail)
