Took the mini-truck to do some off-roading. I've come to the conclusion that its main drawback is the lack of ground clearance. I got stuck in a couple food deep snow drift and then went through a ditch later on where I proceeded to rip the entire rear bumper off the truck.

Needless to say, my wife was not happy when I returned home, BUT with the wonderful invention of self taping screws and some zip ties all is right with the world.

Here is a video of the snow drift.

And this was in an F-150 after I ripped the bumper off.

Also had a little fun before too.

These trucks are just not designed for that kind of action. You going to Ukraine?

Eh. The wife would have been much more upset if I would have done that with her Expedition Max Limited.

The AWD worked surprisingly well using the drive modes. I think I need a 2 inch lift and some BFG AT's and I'll be good with 80% of the stupidness I do. I am however glad I got two new shackles before this adventure.
