We had 4-5 inches of snow today in Kansas. I seized the opportunity and took my 94 YJ (bought 3 weeks ago, my 1st Jeep) out for her first wheeling experience with me. This began at about 1am Kansas time, emboldened by a couple of beers and a brother in the passenger seat constantly saying "You can make that!"
We hit every bike trail, open field, parking lot, random undeveloped land, ditch, and wheat field within a 5 mile radius. We were at times chased by home owners (verbally), snow plow drivers (whom we evaded by cutting across a field, then taunted by returning and cutting across another field), police (cut the lights), golf course superintendents (out of their jurisdiction, but we were close and word was spreading), and rent a cops (it's hard for a sedan to cut across a field with multiple ditches and 5 inches of snow to come after us).
I was repeatedly amazed at what eaze my stock 94 YJ handled any challenge I threw at it, almost yawning at me as if to say "Is that all you got ?!"
This was one of the most fun nights I have ever had. My Jeep feels invincible. It can go anywhere it wants to.
I would love to hear similar first time wheeling stories.
