Title: Anyone live in Florida???
Post by: FinishTheGame on September 23, 2011, 09:53:04 PM
I live in Centrel Florida close to Ocala.

Just wondering if anyone lives close by, would like to wheel sometime, not much into to mudding (at least not my vehicle) but i like sand and washouts and obstacles and such.

I don't mind watching mudding.

Anyways, i have an 87 Samurai w/ 31"s on it.

P.M. me or message me public, whatever you prefer.

I lived in Vero for a while... but now back home in TN... Check out the Flozuki section towards the bottom. You may be able to find someone local there.

I live in St.Pete,and own a place at River Ranch [20 miles east of Lake Wales off of hwy 60].Lots of sand trails, a few wash outs and obstacles.Mainly central Fl. swamp/flat lands,but it is 65,000 plus acres.If you get out that way look me up.I go out at least once a month.

How come you stopped? 

And where did you wheel, in the National Forest?

I live in Gainesville. Love to off road and camp, currently I have a '87 Vanagon lifted springs on BFG ATs. I am in the market for a Sammy so we can do some more serious wheeling. My wife and I went to Aruba for our honeymoon and rented a Jimny and rock crawled all over the Island and fell in love with the little thing. It was stock height on stock tires and it was super nimble and unstoppable! >:D

Currently I have a 1970 Dune Buggy that I am gonna sell and use the $$ for a Samurai. I should be able to get about 4gs for it which looks like that could get us into a real decent Sammy. ;D
