Re: You`ll like this

Thanks for looking.88 views so far and only 2 are compelled to comment on this amazing rig?Are you breathing still or does this stuff just not float your boat?I figured any red-blooded off road enthusiast would get excited over seeing a whole new approach to what we love to do.
Gross man,that`s exactly what I thought.But,hiking looks faster .I`m sure there`s some beneficial use for the GI.

Sorry, but this video has already been posted on every off road forum I visit, so I did not feel compelled to comment until now

I think the technology is great, but far beyond the reach of the average wheeler. This would not mechanically be qualified to compete in We Rock, RCROCS, or King of Hammers because it does not fall into any of the catagories, but it would be neat to see it go head to head with a rock buggy.

Well,this is this site and it hasn`t been shown yet.

We Rock,RCROCS,and King of Hammers rigs are far beyond the reach of the average wheeler,too.This isn`t a rock crawler.I`m not into rock crawling,anyway.That`s for people that don`t have all the mud and other great stuff we have to wheel in,IMO.I don`t mind watching it and checking out the rigs.Same with this one.Not singling you out.I was talking about 85 other people,too.

Re: You`ll like this

Oh ok,I guess the mods missed that.It belongs in this section.
That would explain the lack of "WOW!"s.I missed your thread and was on my "WOW!" high when I posted this.I checked,first,and didn`t see anything on it...here.

Hey Stocker,I`m keeping score!

It`s the innovation and creativity that turned be on.I don`t feel It`s something I just gotta have nor do I feel it would be such a great benefit over the off road equipment we are all familiar with.I don`t see it "catching on".It would stand apart in few circumstances in performance.It can still roll and you better know your levers if it gets hairy.I can see it as an off road recovery vehicle because it could get back to wherever anything we know could get.It`s true,when that thing gets way out there stuck it`ll be stranded w/o an air lift.
