      No, it's a Warn winch ad from the seventies, long before Photoshop.

        While not photoshop I don't believe it is a true picture. IE no one with a death wish drove a FSJ on that road IIRC it originally showed a baby jeep.

          Might be real, might not be, however, at one point on the road I ran my nerf bar into the hill which stopped my forward progress. I asked my spotter how much room on the other side I had. I split the 1 1/2ins and made it around the rock wall while still scraping the nerf bar.

              yeah, i might do that one on a dirtbike or a fourwheeler, but i think i'll be keepin my poor waggy away from that one.
              take it back, i'd do it in an xj. at least then if i lose it i didn't destroy a waggy.
              buckle up, i wanna try somethin...

                    It is manipulated.

                    Several did Black Bear this year in their FSJ's. I did not. I know my personal limitations and that's above them. Someday I may ride with someone just to say I did it, but not this year.

                          No thank you. Can't get me on that road. Unless it all looks like it does in Flint's picture, then I might be ok.

                            that doesn't look too bad, i guess. I just don't want anything to do with that pic from the warn ad
