It is an expedition with an ugly body, why would some moron think it was a rock crawler.

Yup GM ruined those things as tough SUV's by catering to the DINK and yuppie segment, they are nothing more than a glorified Minivan

Hell I've seen that happen with real jeeps. Stupid trying to use a jacked up station wagon for real 4x4 stuff.

Maybe, but I've seen samuri's tackle stuff like that without breaking a sweat.

I've taken a 30 year old(OK, 29), unmodified Bronco over much worse than that.

I love early broncos! I'd like to get one but the price is inflated for any that aren't 90% rust.

Right now I wheel this

It could use better tires and a locker, but it gets me just about anywhere around here.

The problem here is very simple. A GM is NOT a Ford F250. Don't try this at home folks without at *least* a Ford.

Right around 7,000 pounds, I believe. A bit more for the wagon, a bit less for the pickup.
