Nice pics, who was in the 8x8 ???


And what's that tire on the back in
the swampped pic ? looks like a AT
radial, not a Grizzly Claw

Don't they allow swampers there ??

That can be AT radial's but that's not my truck  ;)
And on mine there really are 4 Grizzly Claws.
The 8x8 was driven by 2 women  :o They also brought a Hummer and an Unimog with them  :o The 8x8 has done Paris-Dakar twice (with the previous owner) and Berlin-Breslau twice too (with this owner).

What is the websight written on the 8x8?  I can't quite make it out.

Doing something like the Paris Dakar would be a blast.  Makes one wonder if given the chance they could complete it.

Nice pics though.  Every time someone posts on here makes me look forward to the next run even more.  :)

Were they attractive? Wheeling is so much better with the babes around!
