^^^ I don't think I like that line too much. ^^^

Driver rear tire looks to be ~5-6' off the ground.

Yea, except maybe some stains in the under garments.

Video here. The fun starts at about 5:00 but the first minute or so is a bonus, with the sound turned up. Good times.

Well I brought her home last night.
NO I did NOT have a fire truck escort!
It cruises down the freeway at 65 like a dream. Tons of power from the 427. Betsy and the kids saw it for the first time last night and love it.
So does this make ma a happy camper?

Yeah, they hit the small rock on the left (first pic) with the drivers side rear tire and it tipped too far. The pics look worse than the vid. BTW, that was me at the top spotting in the vid. I knew the rig was going to land on the slider so it's not as dangerous as it looked. Also, there was a rock crack (second pic) that was my bailout spot if things went wrong. If you think that's bad you should see the vid/pics of me and Taylor doing the "jump of life" after a rig went sideways on one of our Pinyon runs. That was exciting! BTW, I'm the last Jeep down in the vid and I had a great line IIDSSMS!

Regarding comedians, my guy is one too. I feel for ya.

Who was that guy anyway? Never saw him after that. I bet they sold the jeep and got a Prius.

I know that was one of the SD Jeeper's runs so I'm not sure how many of them frequent the SD Forum here or partake in some of our runs. I don't think I've done a run with them since that one though.

BTW, she was kind enough to send me some pics including the one I use for my avatar.
