meangreenmachine Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 (edited) Finally got my s.l. done and some new rims and tires. Thanks to all who helped So a couple of friends wanted to go out and see what I could do. It was sat night (3/31) and here in northeast Iowa it had been raining pretty hard for 2 days. Every one was giving me lip that the pathy wouldn't be able to keep up so they let me go first. One guy was driving a v8 dakota with a 6" s.l. and the other a toyota 4 banger both really nice looking trucks. Started making my run and didn't look back. Got to the end turned around and saw my buddies headlights............waited they didn't move.......................waited they didn't move.......................waited they didn't move, finally i walked down to see what the problem was and the toyota had stalled and the dakota drove in right behind him with no where to go. Helped push the toyota out but there was no hope for the dodge. Toyota turned around and b-lined it for the exit (only one way in and out) almost made it, got stuck again. Helpless But now Ive got 2 trucks in my way to get out. Im the only one not stuck but im stuck Drank a few and watched the other guys try to push the toyota out. No luck. So I planned my escape. made my run back through while weaving through the two trucks. Pulled the toyota out. Went back the next morn and pulled the dakota out. Video Link The dodge wouldn't go anywhere but the pathy pulled it out with the greatest of ease. Boy its amazing how less cocky my buddies are all of a sudden. **EDIT: Fixed the vid link Edited April 4, 2007 by RedPath88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precise1 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 LOL, and they didn't think you couldn't keep up?? Stuck in that little patch of goo? Did they ever hear of 'off road' tires or maybe weighting down the back of an empty truck? Soo many things to about. Glad you had fun and were able to prove your worth.

meangreenmachine Posted April 6, 2007 Author Share Posted April 6, 2007 Don't know about that. I'm pretty impressed by the power my little v6 puts out. Granted its no big block v8. I pull some pretty hevy loads and have had no complaints yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUELER Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Yeah my VG33 is slow in traffic, but the tides always turn in snow or mud. VG33 at wide open throttle, screaming at 6k rpm, snow flying from all 4 tires, always makes it anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 The WD21's 3.0 put out about 150 hp stock and not much more with mods (other than engine). The key here is gearing; we pay for it with the milage, but the low gearing makes them more useful off road. Very rarely have I seen the situation that wide open is better than chugging along, and then there is finess. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meangreenmachine Posted April 15, 2007 Author Share Posted April 15, 2007 Last weekend every one went out in the mud to play again. Made some awesome new trails. But alas I had to pull the dodge out 2 more times. He let his friends wife drive it while I was watching her nuetral drop numerous times I noticed that although the rpms were about pegged the wheels were barely moving. Well now I am helping rebuild his trans. gotta get him going and give him the chance to redeem himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
