you may be able to go on every trail ... but there are more fun lines out there where a 33 simply won't make the cut. plus i'll say it again, some ppl have fun staying safe, others like to push the envelope. its 2 entirely different styles of wheelin and i've been in both. if you don't understand someone elses rush enough to join in, then just sit back and watch the show
Two different styles of wheeling? If one of those is Hammer Down Go For Broke Hillbilly Intent on Busting Their Shit mode,well then, I'm out. My JK (as well as many others here I suspect) is a daily driver. Gotta respect the machine.

If you've completed every trail in Moab and only then go choosing new lines for a fresh challenge, well, more power to you. If and until you've done every trail in Moab, I can't let you get by saying that, sorry.

you really need to get out and watch some more ppl wheel ... there's more to trail life then Moab and rock with more traction then you know what to do with. i've never been to Moab, but i'm confident enough from years of wheeling elsewhere to say i'll go where every you point me. (within the bounds of physics).
and as for the hillbilly comment ... then make it 3 styles of wheelin. your siggested slang style of go for broke (how i wheel my $200 XJ's), how you wheel being really safe with a rig you paid a lof of money for and need every day (how i will wheel my JK), and then the style that has you hangin on the side of rocks at the verge of balance moving an inch at a time till you either make it flop (how i wheel my YJ).
i'm sorry, but the thrill of making a line from the verge of impossability is addictive and some (not me) may chose to attempt this in brand new rigs. chear em on! so they don't make this line, but they have a better feel for the rig for next time.
saying someone should take their key's for pushing the limits is simply ignorant.
disclaimer: all previous statments do not include newbs who's daddy bought them a new jeep and who have zero clue how to properly use it.

Ok - third post here.
Real quick: I know my panties seem to be in a bunch, but I stand behind the theme of what I say. ... but I also acknowledge that the OP was just mess'n around and we'd probebly have a blast wheel'n together. Shoot. Is there anybody that would not have a good time wheel'n with everybody????
Back on topic. These flop pics (well really rollover pics) are freaking me out. The windshield collapses right on top of the front seats. That frigg'n sux. I need a sport cage or something.
