100% of all lowered trucks drive on their intended road surface, streets. I bet about 1% of lifted trucks ever go off road.

Won't catch mine off the road either. Heck, I feel bad when I take it above 2,000 RPMs.

You couldn't even turn into my driveway.

Then you probably wouldn't have appreciated my belt squeal on the 2-3 upshift like I did.

Not a wimp none of my friends own a truck big enough to yank mine out if I get it stuck. At almost 9k my truck is pretty heavy.

My parents SD gets close to stuck in the sand at the beach. My Dad can't drive the thing very well in the sand. I think he gets nervous. I just keep the throttle down in my truck, don't stop the momentum.

Anyone ever watched Lewis Black? He's on Comedy Central now. All you can make out is 1 or 2 words then you get the "beep". It's more annoying than funny.

I hate comedians who cuss all the time. It just shows they lack comedic talent.

I'm there with you Stealth. Once in a while isn't bad, it's when it's you can't even get through a sentence without cussing. Then I usually turn it.

Parking in your front yard doesn't count.

This is the type of terrain I deal with, when I go hunting in the fall.

That's my offroading that I do for fun.
The gumbo dirt gets really slimy when wet and sticks to everything.
I would love to drop my truck but I don't want to sacrifice not being able to use it for hunting.
