Rock crawlers are now obsolete

I was a serious 4X4 weekend warrior years ago, and helped design and built all sorts of rigs when I was in my 20's and 30's(now 50). All I am saying is that you can make negative comments about this truck all you want, but until it is actually tested in the elements compared to other vehicles no one can really say one way or another what it can or cannot do. It looks very capable to me and with a good driver behind the wheel it may surprize allot of people. Maybe even you. Who knows? Don't get your panties in a twist young man just because everyone does not see things your way. I'm not saying that you are not correct. I am merely saying that none of us really knows for sure just by watching a few minutes of video.

Who's panties are in a twist? And when did I say it didn't work? Maybe you should read my posts again...

Oh, and I've heard the same things, even worse, from people who've wheeled with it. It works just fine, but it just isn't practical. Like I said, a marvel of engineering, but just not up to snuff yet. Instead of looking for a fight, maybe some of you should pay more attention to detail and not jump on the first "opportunity" of attack. Read what I said again, and realize that, in fact, I actually gave a dual sided review of it instead of dismissing it completely.

Oh, and like I've said TWO times already, it's NOT the future at all. If it were, there would be hundreds of them by now. Look up KOH, you will see what I'm saying and won't even care about this thing anymore.

[_paralyzed_]

we're all "just saying" stuff. if it's taken personally it has been taken the wrong way. keep an open mind and discuss, even debate, but don't argue. we're all smart guys here and having a different point of view is always a good thing. and both of you guys neede to stop wearing panties, that's Linc's thing...............

Who said anything about you not working? Where did that come from? And no one is looking for a fight. Its obvious to me that we will see many different views here on RCM about this thing, some good and some not so good. How long has this thing been around? This is the first time I have seen anything about it. Considering the time line how can anyone say it is not worthy compared to the mainstream crawlers without having been run up against the norm. It is easy to critisize anything not normal or unique, but without facts to back it up you will be challenged on every point. We are not a group of think tank geniuses in here(except maybe James in his womens undies), but we are not ignorant fools either. There are allot of seasoned veterans lerking in here that have quite a bit of knowledge and experience in some form of engineering so if you decide to throw a wrench into anything posted in here you better be able to show some facts or proof to stand behind, not just a class room education. And for God sakes calm down before you give yourself a heart attack. Posting up stuff about the Hammer race that has nothing to do with this truck nor does it show anything as to whether this rig can perform or not. Take a Prozac and relax. Life is good.
