Images of your hunting trucks or vehicles?

I use my hammered 87 s-10 project. Lays the frame on the pavement, and get's about 1.5" of ground clearance under the frame when I fill the bags up. :)

I've seriously used this to go out groundhog hunting. You'd be surprised the terrain this hog will go through, but you'd be surprised what it can't go through too :)
You have to worry more about starting a fire than getting stuck... the exhaust sits about 1" off the ground when laid down on the frame, so any amount of grass or brush under there is going to touch the exhaust. I've left rectangle burn marks in friend's yards because of that :)

oh, and that's not a backyard camo paint job... it's just that terrible looking, lol!

I ended up buying a clean 77 FJ40 Land Cruiser I will try to post pics later. Taking it out shooting and to try the 4wd out today as we got some heavy rains yesterday. PG
 
Nomad47,
Now that is what I call a great hunting vehicle (the big one). I found a 2002 H3 Millenium coach on the market a couple months ago for 510,000 that was in new condition with VERY low miles. My wife told me before I buy it I should clear it with my NEW wife. :) Obviously it is still on my wish list.
This surly must making the hunting trips more enjoyable.

LOL on the new wife. IIRC, that H3 is made by Liberty Coach - they make VERY nice units. I retired 5 years ago. We sold the house and moved into a 40 foot motorhome, but all my gun stuff made us a little overloaded, so a little over two years ago we traded it in on the current 43' model. No looking back.
 
This will go places other vehicles won't go but does lack a bit of ground clearance, '84 Subaru Brmby 2.2 legacy motor, 5 speed with high and low ratio, all time 4WD with locking centre diff and lsd in the rear.......Kiwi.

Here is a picture of my 77 FJ40 I got last week. 36k miles rides like a tank but should last. PG

G'Day Fella's,

Here is an image of my old Toyota Land Cruiser, Mid-Wheel Base (BJ73) (aka "Battle Cruiser") next to a 6 meter or 19 Foot high snow drift, at Mt Hotham, in the Australian Snowy Mountains. Yes, it does know how to snow down here!
This image was taken on the way home after a week away Deer hunting (for Sambar Deer), not far from this location.
Of course as often happens, the sun came out after a week of Rain, Sleet and Snow!!!

Doh!
Homer
