More off road fun!
My family and I recently returned from a week-long off-road trip in Southeastern Colorado. Had a really great time, and the old high-mileage Tahoe performed flawlessly!
Found a small mud hole that I couldn't quite clear on the Rawley Mine / Bonanza trail, though. Luckily my buddy with a built 4Runner was able to winch me out without much fuss. Made for good stories the rest of the trip. My wife let out a good scream when we fell in!
I was actually trying to go AROUND the mud pit, but ended up getting stuck.
I was quite amazed at how the elevation affected the 6.5L. I don't get much smoke at home around 2,000 ft. Get up around 6500 and higher, and boy she smokes like a freight train! And the turbo lag is very noticeable.
