I wish I could work outta my Jeep!

A little bit of an update..........working in Southern Louisiana (as you all know) and am working out of a 4WD Ford Ranger. The first truck they gave me was a 4WD F-150, extra-cab, long bed, with street tires...........about 30 feet long!!!! No fun at all on the "roads" where I work. Anyway, the little Ranger works out pretty good and I surprised at how well it gets around in the mud and the bayous. Yesterday, about noon, I had an "oops"..........got stuck. I called a guy to come pull me out, but wound up diggin' around a little bit with my machette (only tool I had) and drove it out. Only Ford would design a 4WD vehicle with nothing but plastic on the front end. Radiator hanging down and nothing to protect it but a bunch of plastic. I sure wish I could work out of my Wrangler, but I'm still having fun.................a few pics of the "stuck"........








I retrieved the bottom half of my "bumper" today and snapped it back into place........don't you love plastic??.........sure hope I don't hit anything solid in this thing!!!

:lol: woops, I've done that a couple of times. You get used to driving a Jeep and it makes you over estimate the ability of a lot of larger vehicles.

Decent flex, though. Nice job, Mud......prolly woulda made it in a SWB, 'cause it looks like the longer wheelbase there is what got you in trouble....that and the blue oval.

Nothing like getting stuck... with someone else's rig
