Wow, talk about taking a good base and screwing it up.


Sad really, that thing doesn't look half bad (body wise) and the motor & suspension combo would almost make me interested in one, depending on the transfer/power split set up. Oh well, guess I'll have to keep my SII till Daimler gets a clue or International builds the new Scout. Bummer :wink:

Not quite off-road related but I think everyone the likes guns or understands them will get a kick from this video.

That's funny, the last guy was the only one that really had a clue on how to handle it.

That even a production rifle? I bet a good absorber for the stock and a few mods would make it a fun little toy.

Here is one that we all fear. Is it driver error or the spotters fault?

That is Hell's Gate on Hell's Revenge trail in Moab. Driver error it appears because the spotter clearly says turn to the right but the driver continues. I have heard though that her hand throttle stuck and she wasn't able to release it before going over. It is a lot taller and steeper than it looks in the video. Sheila winched up it during "Winches in Hell." I think she wants to drive it next year. 8)

I'm sure the guy pushing was a big help. Wonder if he got a wakeup call on the forces involved?

I think that's how long it is. It's a short little snap of an axle.
