Caught the Bug
The day RanchoRubi jinxed me by saying I never break down. Thanks to my pals for helping me get off the trail.

The photos below were posted up on crippledpetey's build thread and as you can imagine, it got me thinking about this thread. Needless to say, I am posting them up here for you all to enjoy...

Thought I would add some of my carnage along the way. I haven't taken photos of all of it but still think this will be fun :-D

Made contact with a very large tree on Old Sluice

Okay, the revival of this thread got me thinking I should post up some of the carnage we got on the last JKX. Here's what happens when the entire passenger side of your Jeep is used as a pivot point :crazyeyes:

And look, it even damaged our 6.2L emblem!! :mad: :crazyeyes: :D

But, after adding a little touch up paint and a set of new Rugged Ridge half doors, you can hardly tell anything happened at all :yup:

Moral of this story is to never follow Mel up a hill unless your ready for carnage!
