Yeah looks like ill be working from home tomorrow. Really shouldve got an old offroader like someone else commented and a camry for daily use haha. Learn as you go

Week later, my front left brake sounds like a child screaming murder…. Thought i was gunna get away with not taking these off lol

The budget always includes 4 digit emergency tow money lol. Ill find the blend of pushing it over time and keeping it ok for my daily life… I can “afford” all that i said, id just look even dumber than i did on easter in the mud pit when i still need a 1100$ winch out after upgrading 3500$ 🤣. My...

And if it matters, my hand wash is with microfiber towels i bought brand new, not a brush or anything that could realistically cause damage … all other black/underground 6th gens ive seen, dont look nearly as fresh as some of the other bright colors unless they are new new.

To trdprogirl’s point, my underground looks like crap basically all the time compared to the day i got it, and i only hand wash… will say the inside of my premium i have beaten the crap out of, and it cleans super well!

Are the running boards not beneficial for the sticks and branches i kick up on trails? Heard some wicked ones whack my door this past weekend so i thought they offered a bit of protection, am i naive in that regard too haha?….Since its still a new car technically, i did want to keep the lower...

Thats another thing I am putting on the checklist, make sure there is a 0% chance of storms on radar before going out there to be dumb… could so see how a 2/10 trail becomes a truck eating highway within a couple hours if the wrong storm comes through. Truly crazy the difference between the dry...

Looking back, locking the diff and trying to reverse didnt seem to bring me down further at all, it was only in drive where i seemingly was going lower trying different things… i kinda regret not trying crawl in reverse and throwing a ton of logs/boards underneath… i was just so worried about my...

Meant to respond to this but forgot in my manicness yesterday… why crawl in reverse? I actually did not try that at all, i did crawl but in drive and that was when it seemed to just bog me down a slight bit more….also i was winched in reverse by the jeeps who seemed to know what they were doing...

And i cant believe how little I have noticed from this car after my mishap and taking it in every situation for its first 5k miles…at least 1k have been drifting in snow (i even put 200miles moving in a snowstorm), going over pine barrens sand, or bottoming out in mud. Drives straight as day 1...

Yeah so unfortunately i live in northern NJ, paying for a 2nd parking spot where i am is like paying for 3 cars hahaha. Goal is to just make this that modded offroading vehicle one day but thats years down the line when I move to somewhere I can park 2 cars (knock on wood)…. Also looking back...

I was in Jackson twnship, two towers loop its called on onX… its barely even deep in the pine barrens, just the closest spot to me in northern NJ and i wanted to have fun on Easter morning hahaha… theres a couple sandpits off the main road up there (think the main road is cassville prospertown...

Yup. Brought home an extra 50lbs of sludge stuck on those things. I gave a good rinse at the self wash but i need to take a day this week to really clean the nooks and crannies by taking those plates off. This will probably be a month long endeavor, the inside of my car is a mess too hahaha

I see now i probably dont even need to disconnect it, just spray from the engine side towards grille?

Now that im home… am I flushing the radiator with a garden hose after disconnecting? Or does it have to be pressure washed?

Was in the pine barrens with what little coverage i had, trying to find a youtube video hahahaha. Let me know if you do find one because im interested in this. Definitely still going to save up for a winch but would love to try all methods next time (hope there wont be but I’m learning theres...

“Pretty sure” he broke down after trying to winch me out 😅… nah but i always respect people who care about their cars and tbh, these were some decked out jeeps, be hard to hate even if they didnt save my butt for which i am forever grateful, was about to start pouring haha

In noob fashion, i left my air compressor at home with my mtn bike lol… crawl and locker didnt seem to move me an inch forward or back when i tried but next time i will have to make a checklist and bring my air compressor… i got out because a group of jeep rubicons on 37s with winches happened...

Hmm sounds interesting but as stuck as i was, doubt that was going to work haha… will probably just look up how to use a winch and try it out myself one day once i can get one, i know its not as easy as tie it up and go so I will definitely research… gunna give her a rest for now lol

Maybe now that im out we should meetup at a costco, and you show me how you use your 6th gen?
