    Default First time Offroading my new G550

    I took my new G550 out 4x4ing with my friends G55. We had a blast trying out the lockers I was very impressed with the G's abilities!

    A vehicle’s worth is not what you put into it, but what it put into you.

    Love Gs but the rockstars look way outta place...actually rockstars look out of place on anything outside the Jersey Shore. Those are the wheels for people who wear UFC t shirts and have fashion tattoos.

    That thing friggin rocks, don't listen to these posers raggin on your wheels. The G is fo shizzle, made for the best for doing exactly what you are doing. Make it your own, take it on the trail and have fun. Lots of "expedition rigs" out there just sitting in driveways and garages with the perfect rim and tire combo. Don't worry about it, just enjoy it. The G550 can be a blast totally stock or with mods in either direction. That beast can still handle 99% of the trails west of the Mississipi as you have done it.
    Cheers to you bro.

    Well now, that's just not true.
    It can't handle 99% of the trails west of the Mississippi - nor east of for that matter.

    Since you speak so certainly, either you have alot of experience with V8 powered 463's on trail or you have none.
    I have been with stock G500's in Death Valley in all conditions and stand by what I said.
