They say you an't a true 4x4 unless your locked front and rear. Everytime ive been stuck i only spin one up front and one out back. Air lockers would be nice.

So i still want to know if you got your truck out...how you got it stuck...why you were able to make a thread about it but not call someone to help you out....etc. In fact some pictures would still be nice

idk if anyone replied to this, i didnt look bc this computers funky

but if you ever look at a snow tire, there are a TON of little slits.. snow tires are designed to grab and hold snow because snow grips snow better than rubber

He said it took him some good pulls to break him free. the truck must of been stuck real good since its been stuck for 2 days. It snowed the day he got it stuck and we just picked up anthor 10 inches yesterday and it rained then turned below zero so she was frozen in i want to see pics. I hope he post em

the way it snowed here, then rained and froze i'm surprised anything that was stuck still on monday could be moved... even with a tank pulling it out...

every place a snowplow went by and built up berms is a solid block of ice now...

this winter crap is getting old...

Why does it matter if he doesn't offroad his truck? Evan (HighrollerII) doesn't offroad his truck that much either(not saying anything bad about Evan, I freakin love your truck) and you guys don't give him ****. They actually care about what their trucks look like. You guys are acting like ****ing 2 year olds over this, who cares what someone else does with their truck, it's THEIR truck. And Clay how can you say Maurice never says anything positive, he is one of the most informative guys on this site. /rant over
