This was my first time in snow with my Ranger. We got 11" of snow in one day. Up until Saturday, I had never put my truck into 4-Lo. Anyways on to the pics and best of all VIDEOS!!! Just give the videos a second to load when you first open them up.

Pics first; they are poser shots, but you get the idea, the videos have the wheelin stuff:

VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!!!:


Just driving around on back country roads



New BFGs at work



My first snow hill. The first time I went up it, I slid a little, but it hadnt been rode up yet; it was fresh snow.



4 wheeler trail we ride on



slush hole

In the below videos, i was down in a holler with only one way to get out and it is the hill you see me trying to get up. I kept hitting one spot in the path that the truck wanted to slide. I'd move over a little, but it would still want to slide back into tracks. the final video shows me slapping that biotch in the face and going up it in 4-L0 1st gear.





here is me conquering the hill; you can see where i struggled befiore. excuse any language on the vids, i was a little aggreveted at the dang hill.



over all, i was EXTREMELY happy with the Ranger. She did great and could not have asked for any better. The tires performed extremely well too! I think i did pretty good for my first time in snow with a truck.
 
Wow DB, fantastic pictures!!!

OK, I'm here in Charlotte N.C. visiting relatives and after seeing your post I ask, where is Mt. Airy N.C.? Geeze-o-pete, I found out your town was used for Mayberry in the Andy Griffeth show!!!!
