1st Off-Road wheeling @Camp Gruber ORV, OK

[fireproof69]

First time going off-road with my Gladiator.
Camp Gruber ORV Park in Braggs, OK

we used to bring quads here 15yrs ago and ride.
Did the Gomer Pyle Loop - 3.4 mile easy trail around the perimeter of the park property. Had some rough rocky areas and a few rock step up/downs that were close to dragging. It was a lot of fun though! Definitely will go back and do it in reverse direction next time. And run down some of the other trails.

Overlook view of the Arkansas River. Not gonna get any closer to that drop off!

^^^ this step-down was more than I thought I should drop off of. Without full skid plates for sure. I backed up and took the right side of the tree.

Mr & Mrs Duckie had a wild ride!

Yeah, back in December. My first Jeep.
I had a ‘12 Ram Crew Cab Hemi 4x4, but actually lowered it and was always on all-season street tires. so I never did any “wheeling” with it.
When the Hemi got bit by the cam-n-lifter failure and I had to buy something new I thought I would go a different route when I saw these Gladiators dressed out a little at my local dealership.
I’m loving it!

The RokBlokz did amazing! And the Recon flares too!

Rolled thru multiple mud holes, some up to the edge of the rim, but zero blobs of mud on door handles, rear fenders, or door sides even!

Great investment in my opinion.

I've been to that overlook with the CanAm several years ago. I've sold the Maverick and got my 1st JT in January. Might have to go revisit that spot.

I was a tad bit nervous about getting too close to the edge my first time out there.

Not far at all from the Ozarks National Forest in Arkansas. Head east on I40!
