Some buddies of mine had a tough time.....
This is the exact reason I sold my Taco and decided no more off roading in a daily driver.
Damage report: One guy busted his radiator (log in a mud hole went through the front of the truck). Another guy got mud in his engine and threw a rod. Two trucks blew beads in the same mud hole. The truck with the purple flames was the one that threw the rod. Needs a new engine and radiator. These are guys I just wheeled my old Taco with about 3 weeks ago. The purple flames truck was mainly a show truck and he just started taking it off road. He's looking at $6,000 worth of damage. He said he's probably gonna just get rid of the truck and buy a new one, no more off roading for him he says. Pictures follow: http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery/...6704&members=1 I know this isn't Xterra related, but it is 4x4 related. Just a reminder to be careful out there. I'm glad I wasn't on that trip.

Rule of thumb:
If it was made by 44" boggers, you don't belong in it. Wheeling is not directly related to breaking shit. Sometimes it happens, but as far as I am concerned, all that damage could have been avoided and still had a blast on the trail.

I never cared much for mud. Running Tellico in my stock TRD Tacoma made me realize that off roading a daily driver was not for me.
