SCOUTS SUCK

Postby OldGreen » Tue May 29, 2007 5:59 pm

Not really, I actually really like them. . .however, I thought that I'd continue this discussion in the appropriate place:

That sounds like a challenge.

When your little binder gets done, I propose a little "test" of sorts. I've got one crispy Benjamin against a sixpack of light beer that says that you could pick any one of the following "Jeep type vehicles" and you could pick the "event" (no tug of war or other tractor specific activity like bailing hay or plowing). It has to be Mud, Sand, Snow, Rocks, . . .y'know, real wheelin'). I bet said benjamin against said sixer that the Jeep will firmly spank the binder. Here are your choices:

1. My 3/4 ton CJ7
2. Roman's ToyJeeponeergler YJ
3. Oddball's CJ5
4. Roy's C-101
5. EITHER of Commando14's Jeeps

What's that smell? I think CORN is on the menu!!!!

(of course, you realize that this is all in jest)

I just wanna get the damn thing moving under it's own power :curse: And, in the interest of whatever, what boy wonder wants to do to the suspension pretty much rules out any kind of wheelin' I may be interested in :glare: It'll likely be a great sand rig, but I'm having reservations about trail running. Wrong kind of complience in the springs to my "Old School" way of thinking. So, having said all that, we'll see ALL of you out at Juniper when it's going :lol:

The list would be Narrowed for a tug of war to me and David's Commando. . .I think that with the ARB switched on I could hold my own against a binder in a tug. . .but it would depend a lot on how tall it was and how much its rear axle was wrapping up. Yeti would probably own me. . .

You mean that I couldn't turn my ARB on? LOL> > >OK . .I'll just air my 15" wide tires down to zero psi. . .it would be a helluva show until something let go. Most likely one of our transfer cases would rip an AX15 in half :!:
