very impressed
 

Ive been using my 00 Jimmy slt, w/autotrack 4wd t-case option, to tow my jetski trailer down to the beach and put it in the water. Yesterday we had a huge rainstorm which washed away alot of the beach and left huge puddles of standing water on the beach. It also washed away alot of the sand access ramp that I have to use to get up and down from the beach.
Today my jimmy plowed right through the sand/water puddles and had no problems at all going up and down the rough ramp, it just pulled through like a champ, wheels didnt even spin. I wish I had some pictures to do it justice.
The best part is that I talked to a few other FORD drivers in the area who are afraid to launch their jetskis from the beach since they have gotten their explorer and f150's stuck in the sand in the past. Ive been on deep loose dry sand and rough extremely wet sand with my jimmy and the wheels have never even slipped.
Im very very impressed with the off road ability of this truck, especially since ive only got a typical all weather truck tire with a pretty mild tread pattern.

RE: very impressed
 

ive only been stuck once out in the sand and thats only because my rut split into two. but it was a very fine powder sand. glad to hear ya had no problems launchin your jetskis
