I go a couple times a week in some sort of way lol. I have a mild trail right behind my shop that is enough to get a little muddy and make me smile when I'm sad lol. I also try and go a couple times a year with larger groups of people. I used to go alot when I had my land Rover but now I have to make sure I can get my family around in the blazer until the wife gets rid of her stupid mustang and gets a bigger vehicle.

Hopin' to be trail worthy soon!!!
Thanks for the compliment. Usually its just me and some buddys. I went with wi4x4 once and have tried a few times to organize a blazer forum group off road event, I can get about 5 maybes and as the date approaches most say nah not gonna make it.

I try and go at least once a year, but if it happens more than once Ill go. Usually crap keeps coming up or no one wants to go. Plus like a couple others I have stock height and wheels. It works great I do what I think its capable of.

I cant say that I go mudding, but my Blazer is used several times a month to go fishing and camping where the 4x4 would be useful. With my 1995 Lt I can fold the backseats and put a good sized air mattress in the back and catch some zzzs without a real need for a tent in the cooler weather.

Not enough... Blazer needs better skins and some armor and I just haven't had time to get my Nissan dirty.

I like a clean truck with a good coat of wax. The truck will hold resale value. I even go around potholes in the street.

I've gone three times in the last three weeks since I finally got my 4wd working. No mud, on account of us not having had any rain in months! Just some dirt trails.
