Gladiator Recovery Assist Pictures: The Hall of Shame

[Greg_L]

I don't have pics but I didn't give a jump start to a Kia Soul in the Wal Mart parking lot. Does that count?

If anyone wants to help me learn how to upload videos from April 2023, I can provide more fun here. The nearest tree was so far away, and I didn’t have an extension, that a 30’ strap became a tree saver. It was barely long enough.

Annoying. I had to duplicate the videos and adjust their dates to October 24. Not a great app. I’m sure it’s easier on a computer.

It would be better with a picture.
Specially if the passengers are cute.

Just below the wall on Poughkeepsie Gulch in Ouray, CO.

Beautiful countryside!! So jealous.

High centered it on a peak of the dune. Had to be pulled off by @Gvsukids .
Screen shots are from his youtube video of the days ride on the dunes.

Is that Silver Lake? We had the Mojave up there for Jeep Invasion in May and had a blast. Those razor backs on Test Hill will get you! I pulled a few folks off the peak and had to get pulled from the peak myself too. Sadly, no pics.

It’s an amazing part of the state, and the country.

Yeah and it's test hill.

Fun place. We went out and did Tin Cup trail too while there. I was extremely impressed with the Mojave suspension there. I could drive it in the dunes the way I used to ride my ATV there. We even found a place around the middle of the dunes and hopped a few short jumps with it!

Yeah I'm surprised how well they do on the dunes. Well stock even with my sport I mean. I just put new suspension and lift on it so excited to get on the dunes next spring again. Tin Cup is fun when wet and some of the surrounding areas trails as well. Local to west Michigan like 10 minutes from tincup actually. Took me couple years to actually get it on the dunes. I hit up tincup on well rather parts of it few times a year for quick drive.

Edit: sorry for thread hijack... 🫤

Only had a couple of opportunities and haven’t taken many pictures if any and the ones I have suck… here’s one pulling a high centered Chevy off a snow bank and my pops off the trail when his power steering pump went out.

"Send it" is not a plan.

Nah the issue is when you don't full send it. Spent all day in deep snow full sending it until my buddy wanted to slow down. Then got stuck as soon as he said we should slow down. I'm convinced if we kept sending it we'd have been fine.

That’s PulPal territory

In doubt? Throttle out!

My brother had some issues on the "Test Track" at Merus Adventure Park out in Texas. His 35's wouldn't allow him to clear his front diff on the ruts. That, and it was dry, dusty and slick.

I would add three things I tell myself on the trail.

You have to drive this home.

Discretion is the better part of valor.

"Send it" is not a plan.

You forgot one.

"Hold my beer"......
