Heheheheh! Yeah, I remember thinking "I hope Andy doesn't take
that the wrong way..." :-) I'm with ya though Andy - I like to
see what my truck will do. I *know* I could get through if I
just stuck to the high ground, but where's the fun in that? :-)
As anybody who has ridden along with me can attest, I generally
don't reach for the lever until *after* I get stuck. ;-) Just
pop it into 4hi long enough to dig out of whatever mess I just
got myself into then slap it back into 2wd. I think the only
times I've been in 4lo so far was when Adam and I went sideways
through the mud pit, and when I towed Pete's dead Jeep back up
to the barn from the ravine.
Though considering recent events, maybe I should re-evaluate
that and try to take it a bit easier on the ol' girl. :-) (Just
for the record, I *was* in 4hi when I went plowing through the
mud pit at Daktoberfest, but it didn't do much good...) :-)
