Default Driving Lessons

Our church held a father/son camp-out last weekend at a friends ranch in east Texas. I brought the scout along so that the boys could all learn to drive a stick shift. Scout went through a tank of gas in 4 hours of pasture driving. Had over 25 drivers.
The worn shackle bushings are now gone. Time to order some poly bushings.

Cleanup was a pain but the boys had fun!

Looks like fun. I see the death grip on the roll bar.

I'm sure some of the dads were feeling pretty close to death. LOL.

It was a PAIN to clean though.

Too cool. I've been letting my girlfriends 14 yr. old drive my rockcrawler around - getting him used to the manual tranny as well - I made him position the rig on a hill to get him used to that sweet spot of the clutch just before it fully engages. He's doing good so far, gonna try again this weekend. Fun times
