You might think by reading the major 4x4 magazines that the world was covered in rock. The vast majority of coverage has something to do with rock. You might believe that if you didn’t crawl you weren’t actually ‘wheelin’. Well I’m here to tell you that the earth is indeed covered by something equally as fun. Mud.
The May ‘07 issue of Four Wheel and Off-Road magazine has a huge mud tire test. Brands ranging from Mickey Thompson to Pro Comp to Pit Bull are tested(no TSL?). There is a lot of good information to be found here, like, how the tires work in the mud might be the main focus but you also find out how they work in the rocks(duh! just kidding) and on the street, since not everyone trailers their vehicles.
There is a nice two page spread on an S-10 Blazer on steroids. Rockwells, Iroks and monster styling make this something I would be proud to have in my garage, if it would fit. An article on swapping your automatic for a manual, a continued look back at the history of Four Wheel and Off-Road, a story about soft-tops for your Blazer, a wheelin’ adventure across Costa Rica in a one-ton Super Duty and a photo spread on our boys in the armed forces getting some serious vehicles stuck.
I really think more mud is in order. Please?
