of windshield I do not know which year or model.

Very sweet looking civilized version.  I'll still race ya.  4-wheelin is more than just the vehicle, it takes guts, and the willingness to damage/destroy your vehicle and yourself.  I haven't 4-wheeled in years, last time I stuck my jeep so well,  we thought a helicopter would be necessary to get us out.  (the winch was under mud)  My buddy Don had to winch me out. :-[

Havn't done any  4 wheeling, well once visiting Whasington state in winter time a 4 wheel bronco was stuck in a snowy
ditch I just got in and drow out of the ditch I guess my
experince with the snow in Sweden paid off.
I had a 58 chevy panelwagon with a straight longblock six
and granny gear while living in ca. got stuck on a sandy
beech following tracks from other truck (probably 4 wd)
but we gut out when my friend with dessert experience
remembered that one just have to let a lot of air out
of the tires, down to 6-10 psi and the wheels didn't dig down
any longer so  I just drow out with no problem.

Sure you need determination and all of that to go 4 weelin', but this baby makes a Hummer look like a Yugo!  No comparisson, at all!  I got all the determination right here, Grave Digger style!!!  Now if anyone would love ot challenge me to a off-road race...be my guest...because off-road for this killer is like water for a fish...

Determantion is great but you need knowledge.   Bump that rear-steer in Grave digger and you be eatin' grass and lookin at the sky through your own butt-hole.  I've even seen grave digger go rubber side up with a pro at the wheel.  Skill my friend, skill will get you there and back.  And when all else fail improvise.  I've busted snow drifts deeper than my hood was tall but just standing on the throttle won't get you anywhere but deeper (under certain circumstances).  I was muddin' once and hit a pit that had two sets of tracks.  I got cocky and took the middle, one rut from each side.  Big mistake, the center was solid.  I went from 25 to 0 in 6 inches.  Ended up finding two trees, jacking up the truck by the bumber (which was on the ground, solid center holding up truck with 4 tires hanging in mid air in the deep, deep ruts).  Shoving the trees under locking it in 4-low and holding it to the floor in reverse. One of the logs kicked up and ripped off a skid plate but I got out.  Everything's diffrent snow ain't mud and sand is it's own ball of wax.  But if your comfortable in your rig you can fare well in all of it.  Horsepower can get you there, but there can be 20 feet up a tree, over a cliff, under 10 feet of mud and water, or in a body cast.  Be careful have fun and never spit in front of women or children.

Ah...but it has quadrasteer...four wheel steering so even if u were to bump me in the back ( anything smaller that a fellow moster truck would just get eaten alive!!!) I would still have the front to regain my balance! Besides when your in one of those mosters, you dont need to worry about anything getting in your way, i mean you got your 1200 hp to guide you so....there just to big, to powerfull, and to underestimated...

And they do'n fit under trees well.  The monster trucks do best in a stadium rolling over cars.  Too tall, Too Top-heavy.   I'll stay with the Hummer. (Although I do like your civilized version)
