Yea, I got bored one weekend at the lake back when I was at Ft. Sill, so I was drifting the truck through some nasty areas of the camp grounds lol...Before anyone gets on my case about doing this in a luxury SUV...its a truck so I treat it like a truck. Anyways, I was sliding all over the place, just having fun..then on one of the laps through a bigger mud pit, it pulled me in to the right (I had all 4 bald tires back then) and I ended up running through the trees...broke a **** load of branches...on the side of my truck lol...you can see the damage it did in the pics. It scratched the backside of passenger side mirror, the doors..they hit so hard, it put a **** load of scratches through my windows haha...anyways, Im not to worried about it...the paint job was ****ty...the person who had it before me used like...black nail polish for touch-ups...it was garbage..so now it gives me a reason to get a new paint job =)

Dang! It hurts me just looking at the pictures. Hey, I probably would have done the same thing anyways. Just as long as you keep it upright, you're good.

Ouch that doesn't look too good. Denalis and mud aren't a good combination, I can attest to that one lol

The pics above were from the lake at Ft. Sill Oklahoma...and here are some pics also from Ft. Sill, just deeper in the woods...

Another soldier I work with called me and asked me since Im the only other person with a truck, if I could help him out because he got his gf's little SUV thing stuck in the mud...I made my way through the jungle, running over bunnies and bambi, and anything else to get in my way...finally get to where they are, step out of the vehicle...pulling the branches out from my bumper, mirriors, grill....and walk over to her vehicle...he'd sunk the entire front end into the mud...the whole frame was stuck in mud...anyways, I hook up to her SUVish thing...give it a little gas...I feel her start to budge, give it a little more...and finally shes outs!...This was after I got the new Nitto 420S...they arent Mud boggers, but well..the AWD saved the day again ;)

btw...I would have had more pictures towing her out...well, actually..I'd asked her to take video of it..but she fcuked that one up by taking a blurry picture instead... -_-

Here ya go guys:

ROFL...boost, is that you walking up the hill with the "what the f*ck just happened" look on your face?

I'd be horrified if I did that to my rig, mostly becasue my ass is too broke for bodywork lol. You truck looks sick with the new paint, but I do miss that bumper sticker on the back. ;)

i can attest to doing some stupid stuff with my tahoe too. this was the first time i ever got stuck but i made it through once but the second time i wasnt so lucky. just dont run in the same pits that your friends with 42s and 44s run in. it got about knee high by the rear wheel. semi deep for florida mud.

Damn..I miss those days...goin out playin in the mud....rockcrawling, just 4wheeling in general..I miss my old Ranger lol...that thing could hang with the big dogs for sure... heh...sorry bout your front valance..but that sh!t is soooo typical for Chevys lol...My buddy and I went 4wheelin up in the snow a couple years back by our cabin...and he ripped that damn thing off his silverado like 3 times that day...then came back home..re-installed it, went to the 4x4 park...and ripped it off again haha...the mud/snow just grabs it and rips the valance/plastic clips out...Ill be in deep sh!t if I get into that situation...my bumper is one piece...it'll rip the whole thing off =( lol...

in most cases, after getting stuck...your only option is to go back the way you came...believe me though, after ripping it off multiple times, the clips wont work...it'll be cracked/ripped after a while..he even broke his passenger fog light off at the same time lol
