As you are watching these devastating disasters occuring around the world, keep in mind that this "HOBBY" you have with your Jeep may just save your life!

How many modern day cars and trucks would have the ability to get past this nature created road block?

Chances are very good that you'll never need to find out, but recently after 45 years of NOT having to deal with Earthquakes in New Zealand member and moderator cantab27 recently had to put his hobby off road Jeep to work in a real life emergency.

So the next time someone gives you shit about your gas guzzler just imaging what their tune would be when you stop and help them, or worse you have to leave them because you just don't have the room!

It has always been my policy to have a capable four wheeler in the stable. You never know what will come up. The last place I lived, it was the thousand year flood. That could happen here too, or quakes in CA. You never know.

I think it's a damn shame coverage of the Japan disaster was stopped to cover a few lose boats floating around in California.......duhhhh, at it's best!
