Muddin', be it in Arizona or wherever, is just FUN. I went muddin' in my 2WD 2003 Tundra (still my favorite truck I've owned. It had the best modification; no payments), and that was fun.

I'd like this to be true but haven't seen anything to back it up yet.

And my mudding was a one time thing after it took me TWO hours to merely rinse my truck off!

I suppose the crazy part is rushing into a hole of unknown depth.

I know the feeling my buddy recently bought a used 2000 f250 powerstroke with a 10 in lift and 46s though we never tested locking the front hubs we decided to run it through the mudhole with the front hubs locked well turns out theyre busted and the truck got stuck in the hole so i was there with my 2013 f150 scab 5.0 bone stock we hooked up that tow strap and even towing on mud and with no help from the f250 i pulled him right out without even crossing over 5k rpms.....of course i then had to add insult to injury and cover my truck from roof to wheels in mud and blow through the hole he got stuck in and an even deeper hole twice needless to say all my buddies have a new appreciation for the f150
