Where did my post dissapear to? It was there, now it's gone.
-
There are rules, so if you violate them a moderator will delete your post. I have had many posts deleted :)
There may be something else going on, but this post lasted.
-
Seriously? I asked a question a trail, as many other people do. If I don't what I did wrong, I'll probably just end up repeating it.
It's because I drive a truck, isn't it? Ha ha!
-
Ah, so maybe the trail I asked about is illegal? I have no idea, that's why I was asking questions
-
Yep, illegal trails are deleted immediately. Zero tolerance at GATR. Nothing personal though.
-
Sorry got busy at work. Your post was deleted because of the trail. It isn't legal and GATR doesn't allow any illegal wheeling or talking about or posting pictures of illegal areas.
-
Got it. That never crossed my mind. Now I know.
Good to know it wasn't because I drive a truck! Ha
-
Lol! We just really protect our club and the sport of wheeling. We promote legal wheeling and offroad parks.

We promote legal wheeling and offroad parks.
Plus the parks are much more fun!

Agree!!

I guess what I was really getting to was what a full size long bed truck, small lift A/T 33's could handle. Stock drive train, no lockers. Beasly knob is 15 min from my house.

Forest Service trails are pretty much where you show stay. Beasley Knob will likely cause some damage, depending on the trail you choose. I have not been to a dedicated off-road park that could be enjoyed in a full size truck.
-
Well, that's no fun! I guess I'll have to try it anyway
See! It is because I drive a truck!
-
Curious, never been to a park. Why should I stick to forest roads? To long of a wheel base? No lockers? AT tires? Not enough lift? I can probably fit 35's on my truck but I read that with the 10 bolt rear end I have that I shouldn't.
Only money is holding me back from getting a Jeep!
-
Long wheel base. Bad breakover clearance and Turing radius.

Thank you
-
Break-over point & turning radius are two major reasons why it is not recommended to take a full size truck rock crawling. Not to say you can't go with us, but you may consider grabbing shotgun in someone's rig the first time you go, to checkout the trails.

Seriously...come out with us on the next possible offroad park ride and take go shotgun with one of us...you will likely be hunting down a short wheelbase, high clearance vehicle to buy.
-
That would be cool! I can see what I'm missing out

You'll have a blast for sure!

This is our next open ride and it is 144 miles from Hiawassee
http://www.gatrailriders.com/GTRForums/index.php?topic=12942.0
Our next open ride after that is in October @ Gulches Off Road Park
which is 127 miles from Hiawassee http://gulchesorvpark.com/
-
I can't speak for Adventure (the next open ride, which is this month), but I can tell you that you do not want to miss Gulches in October...awesome park and GATR Fest is an awesome event.
-
Gulches sounds like a plan! Looking forward to it! I guess I play around in the local trails around here, Charlie's creek, trey mountain, bell mountain, and several forest roads .
