My buddy had one that he got for free so we beat the hell out of it and towards the end of its life we lost all gears but first. So we could ramp it and to stupid shit untill we lost 1st gear so we rolled it over and started it on fire. It still started up too after the fire was out.

loki, whats the advantage of different size tires for diff terrains? is it ok to have a 10" wide, or should i step up to 12.5s? just wondering if there's ever a terrain where itd be better to have a tall, slim tire over a fatter tire.

and how about the basic bfg a/ts? not enough grip to do serious 4x4ing?

Go with the skinnier tire. I have some mud terrain tires on my blazer and they i think are only 9 inches wide and they get through just bout anything.

A wider tire will give you a better footprint though.
