You're in luck! Think we are looking at Nov 3rd already.

I heard about your ankle. I couldn't imagine wheeling with a bad foot, a manual at that! What exactly did you do to it?

Come along anytime!!! You can park your jeep and ride with one of us.
You have to come wheelin @jchadscud... a drone video would be incredible!
..on some of the tougher trails, i just take the bypass road cuz my jeep is a DD plus it has to get me back to Dallas !

Yeah getting back home is important too! I guess this means I need a dedicated trail rig?!
Well that's up to you my friend, but your present rig is already very well set up.... it's way too nice to scratch up, I certainly get that.
That's why I said you could be the drone king and all us would love to see your fine beast.... and be on drone tv!
Yeah I wouldn’t mind seeing some dirt or granite rock and having a little fun. Anything more than that and I’ll watch it from the passenger seat or via the drone feed!

Hidden Falls has some good mild trails you can run your Jeep on. Many stock jeeps get around out there just fine. On the tougher trails you can do some ride alongs.
That sounds perfect!
I’ve got a trip planned already for Nov 3rd, but I’ll be down there around the Christmas holidays to be with family. Maybe something may work then for filming!
As @b0xcar said, we had a great day at Hidden Falls. B0xcar was able to get off work early. We hit Snoopy Falls early.
I got stuck between a rock and a hardtop.
It went “crack” and b0xcar went “oh oh.” He brilliantly broke out his snatch block to winch me away from the wall.
Worked like a charm.
No serious damage that I know of, yet. I’ll look hard tomorrow.
Continued on. These creek beds were really wet due to our recent downpours, but fortunately no rain today.
We made our way back to Area B to join up with Nate and his XJ.
He runs the 2.5L, 4.88 gears, a spool and a lunchbox on 35’s. He fabbed up the rock sliders in these shots.
To all the MC naysayers, you haven’t seen anything. B0xcar makes things look easy!
Well, most of the time he makes it look easy...
Check out how his progressive springs are working in the above pic
These pics are from FM TRO, a long trail that took up most of our day. Just 200 yards in I got to try out my new front locker on this off camber climb. Wheel in the air like I just don’t care!
Another for good measure
The locker is everything I hoped it would be, and more. We finished off with a pic at the top of Wildcat Mountain.
A good day. A very good day!

City jeep ?? Um you have quite a build, @jchadscud , kindof a sleeper build, done right and stout, it's a beast, it aint no city jeep in my book
city jeep...sheesh !
Ha! Yeah meant more that it spends most of its time on pavement! With the recent rains I’ve done a few creek crossings (trickles of water running through a cross street) and even some rock crawling (the rain had washed some gravel into a pile on the street). I considered going around the gravel since I don’t have lockers, but I was blocked on either side by aggregate boulders (common street curbs).
