Alex, Andrew and Chris....Sound familiar?
Spent a whopping 2 minutes devising this master poem for another thread. But I figured I would post it here so you could enjoy it more easily.
River crossed many times
by jeeps, stock and lifted
but when river was crossed this time
damn jeep and driver were gifted
in river jeep found a big hole
good thing that ****er was locked
because all that saw it know
the engine of the jeep would have been ****ed
it tipped to the right a bit
passenger window was almost half way down
as water flowed in NAME thought "holy shit"
and started to look around
he got the jeep out of danger,
he never meant to go that deep
thankfully he had a snorkel as insurance
or they may have been towing home his jeep.
A snorkel is not a free pass to be stupid
but i got photos of people that did
and they were stuck in the middle of a river
right next to a boat full of kids
or that guy that went wheeling at midnight
as campers cheered loudly by the shore.
he romped through the river a few times that night
and his jeep no workin' no more
Yeah...got it....thanks. D-bag....
Unfortunately, quite a few of the early MJ stories revolve around me breaking shit. First MJ trail ride, snapped my axle. Second or third one I hit a massive rock underwater in the last stanza of that poem and my jeep hasn't been the same since.
but, said "stories" are backed up by photos....
Getting my morning coffee at the mud truck. Don't ever talk to me until I've had my morning coffee. Seriously, don't. I'm venomous. @BronxZooCobra.
Ask and you shall receive....
Hahahaha! GREAT poem!
A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life."
yup, i got photos or video of everything in the poem with the exception of the first few paragraphs since i was not on that trip.

Yes, the first part here was me.
Was wheeling on auto pilot as back then I had a second job to support the Jeep addiction and basically never slept. Good thing my trail driving is instinctive now.
Drove into the wrong crossing and the entire passenger side dropped into a hole. The Jeep got off camber and almost rolled over. Water was over half the hood, you could see it on the lower bottom of the passenger side windshield, and it started coming in thru the open passenger window onto my son.
I turned tward the high side and drove out of it. Good thing I had left my rear locker on, or the power would have gone to the side with no traction and rolled/sunk we would have went. The airbox is on the passenger side and the snorkle saved the engine as the box was underwater. Snorkles are not just for looks!
No pix as I was driving - but Chris was right behind me and saw it all.
