great pics!
look's like a good time was had.

 

wow!!! nice and muddy great pictures and I see all smiles!!

 

Good stuff mate.
Nice pictures.

 

All right!!!!!!!! Nice to see another Patriot owner putting their vehicle through hell and back, I didn't get nearly as muddy as you did but have found a place similar to yours here's some pics of the aftermath!

 

Question, my 07 FD1 has the Goodyear SR-As, is the Firestone tires a Canada market thing or an 08 vs and 07 thing?

 

Thanks for sharing the pictures, man. I liked the one of your dog looking out the window.

 

Great picts - Thanks!

 

I think we have a new "Dirtiest Patriot" award winner!

 

Oh no, it needed a Chevy to tow it out there it looked like. Glad to see it wasn't a Hummer though.

 

Nice pictures. Its good to see the FDI does well offroad. Makes me happy I made the right choice.

 

very nice actio photos!

 

Great pics..thanks for posting them

Awesome pics! I love the huge grin on your face, it makes the picture.

 

Excellent photos of the new inferno red/mud two tone paint job! It also looks good in jeep green too. Love the chunks on the hood and roof!:smiley_thumbs_up:

 

SO MUCH MUD!

Ahhh, that's what a Jeep is SUPPOSED to look like!

Here's a good song for getting towed out of the muck:

 

great pics! a true jeep!

ya the firestones suck!! i need new tires soon and ive only gotten 15000 km on mine

 

Ours came with the Goodyear Wranglers... haven't had a chance to try them in the mud yet, but they look plenty beefy.

 

Would love to do that, but I need to firstly find a place, and would prefer to get tow hooks (or at least find an easy tow point) in case I would get stuck as well. Mine is the normal CVT 4x4 with the tire and wheel package. I am interested to see how it would handle something like that. The most I have done is some old rutted dirt roads and dirt mounds to get the feel of the 4x4 in action.

 

Fantastic photos Maverick!

I'm not a creek bed, trail or mud bog rider, but your scrapbook makes a very compelling case to give it a try! Besides everyone looks like they're having lots of fun. Each snapshot is absolutely delightful, but I especially enjoyed the water fording, all mudded up and the "I'm one happy dog" pics. Where in Canada are you located? Wish we could get the 'North Edition' here in the Lower 48.

The Chevy pickup 'getting down to business' photo would work in a Chevrolet 'Like A Rock' ad, too.

Many thanks for sharing. BTW Maverick, did you used to fly an F-14 TomCat in another life?

Where in Canada are you located?

Ottawa, according to his profile...

 

thanks fpr all the comments guys. I live in Ottawa, but the trail riding was out past North Gower, but I don't think anyone knows where that is.

I wish I fleu a tomcat...

Isn't that out by Peterborough?

Anyway, great pics! Looks like fun! Nice to see the FD1 can stand up to some solid off-roading.

 

Mav0016, do you have a trail rated patriot?

 

Nope, just a FD1, the extra money and the poorer gas mileage didn't excite me too much. I'm going to upgrade my tires to add another inch of ride height (and grip) and install skid plates. So far my FD1 has done a great job. I could get in a long conversation/argument about FD1 vs FD2 if anyone wants to chat

 

Really impressive pics. What did your dog say?

 

I think it tired her out more than a day of playing outside

 

What kind of mileage did you get in the mud hole? (just kidding)

Great photos. Really shows what our Jeeps can do. Thanks for posting them up. That mud looks good on the red car.
