Testing the (almost) stock Gladiator in the Withlacoochee State Forest, Citrus area

It made wheeling our pretty flat Florida fun again! She got stuck a few times, but I was able to winch myself out. Rolling with a Rubicon JT on 37s was a great comparison. Did a tour of the Inverness area forest and camped in Citrus area. Super proud of my son for shooting almost all the video and all of the photos! Treading lightly as well collecting trash was also on the agenda!

Make sure you stay on designated trails! After getting scolded by an FWC officer for parking on the grass in Holder Mine Campground, they told me about being caught off trail. It can be very expensive. Even heard about in some instances being fined "restoration" costs for the damage you caused. They also told me that it only takes a few bad apples to convince the authorities to close down the entire area to everybody.

We were on designated trails to my knowledge and would never knowingly go off trail. That being said that location is terrible at actually marking trail numbers as well "designated" areas.

In the campground FWC had to make a special visit to my site lol I was like am I really gonna get a ticket? The guy ended up being cool but we got to talking how they are cracking down on stuff out there. I like going to citrus though

Skill issue… jk 😂
Long as you had fun and are saving for 37’s you’ll be okay.

Hah, basically just wanted to see where a stock Gladiator got stuck. The Poor TJ on 35s was stuck hanging out in the garage at home! lol
