Wanna see a Jeep roll? (off-topic, but amazing!)

Hey all, (some of you hardcore off-roaders may have seen this before)

This is a story about Tracy and her infamous roll-over at Moab at Hell's Gate. Fortunately, she only suffered a bump in the head. The Wrangler actually was driveable afterwards. Tracy's Wrangler did have an aftermarket modified roll-cage.

The video is amazing! Must see!

Here is the full story:

Holy Shit!!

Cool Had a dream last night

I'm sure had something to do with this video clip (watched it yesterday). Abbreviated version: driving on the greenbelts through my housing division trying out Thai's 4WD advice. The greenbelts, instead of being relatively flat as in real life, were hilly 10-15' grass-covered mounds and berms. Got to one, put the truck in 4Lo and started up, only to have the front wheels lift off the ground like I was going over backwards. You know that feeling when you're riding a long wheelie and you're right in-between going back down and going over backwards? I felt that in my dream.

Surprisingly, I didn't wake up on the floor next to bed...
