So how did you get banned ?

Probably by speaking the truth about illegal wheeling

Yes and also sharing my opinion that I think they are over-riding those trails and will lead to either ultimate closure or grading of the main road and blockage of everything else.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

Anyway, back on topic.  Go to any Meet and Greet type event and you will see plenty of Mall Crawlers first hand.  Look for unscratched paint, nice and shiny black under carriage and/or fancy exhaust tips coming out below the bumper.
This makes me feel better, no damage apparent on JK but when you look at my mangled exhaust end, rock rails, and undercarriage armor yes, its been on the rocks.  I threw Doug out there but my JK is at the gym, library, grocery or Lake Lanier most of the time its not looking great in front of the houzz.

Mine is a lawn ornament. My neighbor asked the other day if there would ever come a day I didn't have to work on it. Lol. My 98 stayed around for a long time like that too. I wish I still had that thing and had put a motor in it instead of parting it out, or done the part out differently at least.

You can make a deal with the devil and pick it up for the low. Not too far from you either.

Clean. Never been wheeled :)

Yeah, that would go over like a fart in church with my wife...probably have to wait on something like that when I am too dang old to wheel but can at least still mall crawl...

Never too old to wheel, just to old to drive on the streets. Years ago, in JP mag, there was a 94 year old man wheeling a fairly new blue Rubicon in Moab.

You don't stop playing because you grow older, you grow older because you stop playing.

True on all statements. Definitely would be less of a hazard off of the highway!

Op, my family rig gets labeled as a mall crawler all the time. I guess I can see why, but still. Running 4.25" of lift with fab'd Duroflex rear lca's and upper tri link, f&r ARB's, and some other stuff. What's funny is running the same trails as the guys labeling my rig as a mall crawler,  and doing it just as well if not better. It's definitely a sleeper. IMO, mall crawlers are the guys that have decently built rigs, and always talk about wheeling but never do it, with more form than function.
