all most got stuck

[chevyboy1983]

i went and played in the mud on saturday i didnt think it was that deep and ended up all most getting stuck.  I did not have to be pulled out so i wasnt too stuck.  The place that i went is property where i work i have seen a lot of lifted up trucks go through there i dont have a lift on it yet that will be a motivation for me to get a lift so i can get through it.  The only reason i ddint get through it is because the differental got bottomed out.  Anyway time to get it jacked up and to get it out and play more.

lol, sounds like ya had fun...next time...GET PICS!

[Bitzer!]

Outrageous! you took your pride and joy into mud   

[Fordeatinz71]

shoot, that's what they were BUILT for if they were 4wd.  i have always thought it was sacrilige to have a 4wd and not USE it. 

[Bitzer!]

I always thought you should only use a 4x4 when you're on the run from the coppers/police/SgtDel!

If I wanted to off-road a vehicle I'd have to get an old Itchypussy (sorry Mitsubishi) and kill it

Nice!  The reality is, at least for me, I don't need to go fast or go off-roading--heck for all purposes,  I could drive a Ford on the job.  Why?  the radio frequencies travel at 186,000 miles per seconds.  Don't ask me to convert that, Bitzer, to Kilometers--it is well over 200,000 then.

Heck I could get on that big cow that ya'll have in Somerset England and it will still result in an apprehension.  Did you guys see that cow on the Today Show today---something like 6 ft 6 inches tall--on all fours.

6 ft 6

that's at least 15 hands, as long as we're converting units.

[Bitzer!]

I knew an old cow who was good on all fours 

It sure is a beast of a thing- I travel appx 1200 miles p/week over the south of England and Wales (yes thats a Country!) and go through Somerset (pronounced ZZzzzzzomerzzzet) regularly and could probably see that thing looking over the hedge!

To put Kms into miles divide by 1.65 appx

Ever been to Dunster?  That's where my 6th great grandfather (Delbridges) lived.  It is in Somerset--northwestern tip---St. George's Parish to be more specific---from back in the mid to early 1700's.

My mom's family is from Branscombe on the souther coast of Devonshire---her family came over here in the mid 1700's---her maiden name is Branscum (newer spelling)
 
I am related to the John Delbridge from Barnstaple Devon who owned a fleet of ships.  He helped settle Jamestown and Bermuda on behalf of the English Crown.  circa 1620's.   There is still Delbridge Bay in Bermuda.  interesting story www.delbridge.net/seaventure

I have ancestors who were from Cornwall as well----pretty much completing the entire south west of Great Britain.

My name derives from Delle (which is old English for keeper or overseer) and Brigge (old English for Bridge). 
Yes, my ancestors were TROLLS.
Everytime I think of this I think of the nursery rhyme Billy Goats Gruff  http://www.pitt.edu/~dash/type0122e.html

That's not a cow, that's a space station 

[Lt.Del]

My first thought was he is a leftover from the Jurassic Era.

I wonder if that is a result of the Mad Cow Disease.  He's been fed some Steer oids.

[Blazin]

Looks like good eatin to me !

[Bitzer!]

It seems to me that a few people from Olde Englande popped across the water and "found" America 

I'd love to trace my ancestry but all the websites charge to view files etc and if you guys haven't heard things are getting real tight over here!

SgtDel - Dunster is a quaint village. 5 minutes and your out the other side! Some of the scenery down that part of the country is superb if you can see through the rain

i was down that way today but didn't go near the old cow!
