Attached are a couple of photos taken in the San Juan Mountains of SW Colorado. The foursome shot is at +13,000 on the Imogene Pass Trail after having started the day on the Black bear Trail. Google them to see if they classify as places for which these trucks were built. Left to right, the trucks are from Chattanooga, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Albuquerque.
The other shot is at the top of California Pass, also above 13,000 ft and in the San Juans.
The sunset shot is at Point Sublime on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. It takes a vehicle driving for the purpose it was built to traverse the 20 mile 4WD track to get there.
To repeat, there is a cadre of folks in the US who use them exactly for the purpose they were built.

Oh, I use mine to almost its full potential...
Just do not have enough time to do some of the more extreme stuff.
Plus, its black, and we dont want to scratch it...
Other than that, its been covered in mud, dust, gone over rocks, gotten stuck 3 or 4 times (mud was deeper than I though... oops), scaled rock, and pretty much done all I have asked it to, including being a great daily driver!
I have some pictures of the last time it went offroad. Nothing too serious, but definitely doing what it was built to do!
And Dutch, the G's look right at home in those shots!
