[QUOTE="Truckin222, post: 735749, member: 14554"] Good topic/question. I grew up riding around in the back of pickups. My mother drove an old F100 from when I was born till I was probably 6 or so. My step father had a Scout II and a couple J-10s (one of which is my trail truck now). We were out on the beach in 4wd fishing all the time. I would help him air down and was the designated hub locker... My first job was on the same beach collecting trash and harassing tourists and the crazy bastard I worked with would let me drive all the time. 4wd in deep soft sand, fun for a 11-12 year old... I went to Tellico riding shotgun in my buddies ifs Toyota and was hooked 100%. Ended up with prviously mentioned J-10 and immediately lifted & locked it and began chopping it up and wheeling it every chance I had to get out. We'd wheel there in the winter or summer, 20 degrees or 90... I miss that place so much... When Tellico was shut down, I got out of it for a while. Truck sat and rusted but never got sold. Resurected it over 12 months or so and have been getting back out again. A big part of it for me these days is to get my 5yo daughter in the woods and exposed to wheeling. She has a blast every time. I've also been big into MTB, dirt bikes, street bikes and roadrace bikes, and still love riding, but wheelin is probably more of a lifelong thing for me than any of the other things. My 2 wheeled injuries are catching up with me as I get older... [/QUOTE]
