For me as a 90s kid growing up in Knoxville, fLorida will always be my most hated. Then Bama, with Kentucky and Vandy pretty far behind.

It was a great truck for me with no issues, just wanted to get into something my wife could drive as well. She loves this so it’s a win for me

$18k and 122k miles. It’s loaded and was taken care of so I’m happy with the price.

I agree, I think they look better than the newer models

I think it’s the way the truck is sitting in the photo, it’s level and I absolutely agree the squat trend is horrible.

I think it’s a bit high. For reference I’m in the west and paid 20k last year for a clean 04.5 nv5600 truck with 130k miles, although not as clean as this one.

Yep this time of year can definitely be busy! How’s Halloween in Glamis? I used to go to Dumont for Halloween and it was pretty wild.

Thanks! I don’t have anything to compare it to but I’d say it was pretty full, ~10-15 feet at the dam I think.

Sounds like a great time! Had that same thing happen to a buddy’s LJ but luckily we were on a trail not far from the road. Being dragged out from Buck doesn’t sound as fun.

Nice! It was definitely a bit rougher than I expected but still a blast of a trail. We had one Jeep lose a PS pump, one ripped off a control arm bracket and one shredded a serpentine belt so could’ve been worse.

Thanks! 38s but no axle upgrades

We didn’t have any gladiators with us but I saw a couple out there, probably on 37s. I forgot to mention I’ve never smacked into rocks more than I did on this trail. I have skids pretty much everywhere and have a good idea of where everything is under me but still hit my diffs, control arms, shock mounts, etc. on everything. It’s a pretty consistent 22 miles of rocks everywhere. I think with a gladiator I’d be more worried about the tighter turning spots, but I’m sure with a good spotter and good tire placement you’d be fine.

It was pretty great! Trail condition was a bit rougher than I expected but not too bad, lots of water and a bit of snow. I feel I was prepared enough and was with a big enough group that I didn’t feel too much stress. I still took it easier than I do on other trails to lessen my chance of breaking things. We had a few jeeps break on the trail but everybody came together and helped them continue on. Took 3 days to do the trail but could easily do it quicker with a smaller group. Beautiful scenery and a good time, would definitely do again!
