Top 10 things that piss me off when Wheeling.

[Beej]

In an ideal world, sure. Doesn't always work that way in the real world.

17. When you pull up to a hard spot on the trail and everybody on the sidelines yells,"you can make it no problem." Yet they are a few steps from their own rig and won't try it because they know what will happen when you put a stupid driver in a badly built rig.
Been there done that.

18: When the person behind you is afraid to key up and say "Hey, I am not comfortable driving this fast, would you mind slowing down?"

 

[88flexj]

Sh!t talkin, no rig haven, spectators. Usually at an obstacle they would'nt even think of trying themselves.

Trash left on a trail.

Rain.

 

[Ghost]

Rain.

What would you guys out there know about that? Isn't there a song about no rain in your kneck of the woods?

Heh, we do up here.

 

[IMORTL]

these were my fav

5.Trying to spot a friend and then having 15 other guys trying to spot at the same time

2.People who throw beer cans and trash out on the trail

11. Asshats in AWD vehicles who think they can actually take them off-pavement, then expect you to pull them out when they get stuck.

and one I would add --

19 People who go off road and get stuck without a tow-point to pull them out... I don't even help them anymore...

 

[woody]

People who deem each momentary halt grounds to block the trail, get out, walk way up to take pictures...and end up jackassing around and holding up everyone behind's progress.

"Move your junk up!"

Here is an example of #20, #4, #3, #2 and #1 all at once.

"Dude we spilled the cooler." says the drunk.

#20 Guys that wheel with ONLY the skinny pedal. Making the easy obstacles into hard ones.

19 People who go off road and get stuck without a tow-point to pull them out... I don't even help them anymore...

First off, the bumper bracket never held up, ripped it off the bottom bolts.

Secondly, a chain around the shackles to end up getting out.

That is why I HATE mud. And no recovery points.

 

[Zoro]

#21 people driving a more capable rig than yours than purposely stop half-way thru an obstacle, WHEN THEY KNOW YOU'RE CLOSE BEHIND, just to take pics and you can't go forward or backup...

Yeah so I was that guy that lost sight of the XJ in front of me, but at least I knew where the guy behind me was.
Whatever number we're on,
The guys in the front don't pull up far enough, leaving the guy in the 17 foot truck with a manual stuck on a hill, in the middle of a three point turn.

22) When I come to mud.

At the races our club used to sponsor, I made up flyers that said. If you can find your tow point under a couple of feet of mud, feel free to leave your tow strap in the trunk. How long can you hold your breath? My fliers actually worked better than the "It's required to have a tow strap attached, before starting a run" fliers we used to use.
I've actually seen a guy hook a tow strap around the drag link once. I don't really know how many bumpers I've seen come off.
Or my all time favorite, gentleman Jeepers. As long as your walking around in the mud anyway, would you mind hooking up my tow strap for me? I'm always tempted to put a loop around the driveshaft or something.

I don't really know how many bumpers I've seen come off.

I roached a kids bumper on his new wrangler, this was after I refused to pull him using his strap with metal hooks. He should have thanked me for taking the time to weave the strap under the brake line (or what ever stupid hard line runs behind the bumper on a wrangler).. His gf was pissed with the mangeld mess I left him with.. but he was out..
