From experiance if you like offroading, you will love trail driving. It is so much diffrent than crusing thew a small set of ruts. The place i usualy go is in northern wi( i live in green bay) its right by crivitz. Love the rockcraly type terein. There is about a 1/2 mile of steep down hill with lots of obsticals like trees, rocks, big ruts from rain washing dirt away. Its just a trail that gose for bout 6 miles and me and some friends went up and down it 2 times that day. It was the most fun i had last year. I have vids posted in a thread in sights and sounds.

I've seen some monsters at silver lake and none flipped over. Go to MI State web site and they have a list of trail maps and such. You're probably a 2-3 hours from the bad lands in IN. also and they're open year round.

so have i, but blazers/jimmys are more top heavy than any lifted truck.
i have about flipped mine probably around 5-7 times offroading and taking turns too quick. sand will let you flip easy.

heard a bad rumor today. orv stickers were 16.50 i believe in MI. and i saw on an atv forum which im not sure if the orv sticker is the same for quads and 4wd vehicles but for 2010 the price was going to 30.50
anyone else hear about this or know what the right price is?
