I was bored last Saturday afternoon. I decided to pack up an ice chest and head up to fordyce. I didn't leave my shop until 5 pm. Everyone bailed on me, so I decided to go by myseld. I picked up my friend Craig and headed out. There was a little snow and ice, but not enough to cause problems. We went in Eagle lakes, and arrived at winch hill 1 around midnight. Much to our surprise, the trail was blocked with a huge wall of rocks. It is basically a 4 foot sheer wall. With my long wheel base, it wasn't worth risking it. We decided to do a front tire fire on the wall while we were turning around! That went well! As I started to turn back down the hill, my front tire fell in a hole. It took us a few hours to figure out how to use my winch to get us back on all 4 tires. We had to "Ace Ventura" all the way out. We continued out the Cisco Grove exit. It was a sight to see on Highway 80 at 6am. We finally got pulled over half way down highway 20. Looks like it is time for a new truck! Trevor WFO Concepts!

I told him I cartwheeled up the road a little bit, but there was nobody there to help me. Then I told him when nobody came, we decided to drive until we found help. He bought it. He didn't even give me the breathalizer. It was pretty funny when we told him all of the dents came from one accident. He sort of laughed. I think he knew what was up. I am glad I didn't kick the window out. It takes a lot more than that. It took me over an hour to get it out when I got back to my shop. Not to mention, it was 18 degrees up there. We had to keep some wind off us! Trevor

He sort of laughed. I think he knew what was up.

The IROKs and winch bumper probably gave it away. :beer:

Believe it or not Nate, it was just beer. We were over a case deep, but that doesn't mean anything. It was just bad luck. At least the ice chest go launched out and landed upright! We were drinking bottles, and none of them broke! Trevor

That will totally buff out. A little rubbing compound, some carnuba wax, no worries. :thumb:
