Yes! Very good point. Trucks are tools or toys, not jewelry. Pinstripes, wheel rash & trail damage is well earned and unavoidable.Great Thread !!!! I'm in my early 50's and have been wheeling since before I could drive. I've broken most rules and learned my lessons the hard way. Have wheeled 2WD trucks where 4WD guys wouldn't go. Locked, not locked, wheeled alone, Done things when most would say no way. Now I am trying to pass it down to my son. Hard to keep him off the Xbox. My TJ had come down with a bad case of rust-belt-itus so I have been using the 4 wheelers to teach my son the basics before the Bronc makes it to the stable. He loves it. always wants to use the locker so I had to show him what it is for. I drove over the pile. They were some big rocks.
He said when he first used it "boy this thing is hard to steer" ..........he is learning.
All good advice here One thing I would add is you can't be afraid to use it. .......damage happens. Not saying one should "trash" their new ride, but shit happens, damaged can be fixed.
To quote and old flick........ A man has got to know his limitations.
