Request for "trail ready" status, please.

As soon as my just-purchased lift is installed, I'll go for a further upgrade. :-)

Not yet, Trail X, I'll start the build thread when my parts arrive, and I can take some pics. Thanks for the prompt response.

Ehhh, you must not have read the full thing. You can only be ranked based upon trail reports posted on this site. The bragging rights are there to urge our members to post up content. If you post up the required number of trip threads, and put a request here again, you'll get your rank.

What is the consensus about seasonal roads? In NY we don't have any place to wheel legally other than these rough routes, off road parks and private property. I'm pretty sure a stock vehicle would not have faired well through the rutted mud hole portions as even I bottomed out.
