My Jeep Has A 4 Inch Lift!!!

.

So I settle in off to the side of the water crossing to watch. Two Jeeps are traveling together, the first one has tried to cross the water too fast, and has stalled her Jeep by getting water in her open intake. A USFS Volunteer has showed up and is explaining how you want to go just fast enough to keep positive exhaust pressure, but slow enough as to not force water up your air intake. The black Jeep sporting it's local military base permit winches the ladie's gold Jeep out, and the guy driving the black Jeep then proclaims "But I have a 4 inch lift". This comment is followed by one of the faster attempts at this crossing I have seen yet. Yep...you guessed it. The black Jeep quietly comes to rest in about the same spot the gold Jeep was just pulled from. Everyone seems to be good sports about spending the next several hours pulling spark plugs, cranking water out of cylinders, etc. It was a beautiful day... I went wheeling, but drove by a few times over the next several hours to find them still there "drying things out". MUST be a Jeep thing.
