The undercarriage "you-are-there" section was pretty cool.
There's a reason it's called Ol' Unreliable

Thx for sharing. I was actually hoping I could drive down and nudge you with my bumper but the angle was no good. Too bad they didn't post the the big tire, long wheelbase round fender struggling on the "Devil's Crack" and you coming up right after and driving right up it.

There was all kinds of pictures and video being taken the day of the FFFFR but very little, has appeared on a public forum where everyone can see it.

Thanks to RockCred for putting his video on a public source :



Here is one from greg@rme:

The comments at 23:30 were priceless! that is the best part of wheelin a flatty and spanking the newer jeeps. Way to go JPET for showinf them how to do it.


I recorded the Xtreme offroad show last week and missed seeing Ian hosting the show, hope he hasn't been replaced, but was just out on more trails!

His long were we parked next to those guys, 45 minutes.
They could have pumped up their view numbers with a bit more coverage than that.

The black jeep with the RCV logo was in the bowl being winch out when Billy and I showed up. You can see us staging in the background.

.... That's why I like EJS

The comments from the JK crew after the 23:50 sighting are priceless LOL... and the second flatty appearing at the top is simply salt in the wound Thumbs Up
Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it... Welcome to 1930's Germany

Then, just to pull my chain a little, they drove Grampa’s Jeep up to Potato Salad Hill and staged this awesome photo and sent it to me with the caption:
 “The frame works good! Having a blast! You should be here.”  Then Ward added a note ‘We’re on our third tank of gas.”

These guys are awesome and great friends. 
 
LOL
 
Awesome friends,  for sure!
