ezapar Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 After all those years of owning my toy, I never put it on any side but wheels down. I sold it to my bro, here's what happened first time out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverback Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) If there was a dog in the back, expect it to hide from you people for at least 3 days. The difficult spots will buff out. Edited April 1, 2014 by silverback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezapar Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 No, he was carefully trying to turn around to head back down the trail It's very steep, the camera doesn't really show it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) I understand. Sometimes is unnoticeable how really steep a climb is, from the driver's seat... Kind Regards. Edited April 2, 2014 by Loyale 2.7 Turbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jibs Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 If you haven't put a rig on its side then you're not doing it right! I just put mine on its side a couple of weeks ago. Now that that's over I can get on with wheeling it harder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezapar Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 That was a .75 roll. Luckily the front bumper caught on that tree, or it would have gone over a few more times. That's a REALLY steep hill, no Subie I've ever been in would make that climb. imho. You have to take it slow, there's several 1 foot tall stumps littered along it.

I am sure No one is doubting how awesome the hill is. Just that some folks like to wheel harder than you ever have, Subaru or not. Not everyone likes to have an easy day in the woods. As a matter of fact, MOST people I know like to push it EVERY time. Getting a heep may have been your undoing. lol cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subarus don't have the gearing to take it slowly, or the front locked up to have the traction. Not sure why you're so mad. Wheeling it "HARD" would just break it.
