Off-roading has its fair share of risk-taking. If you are adverse to the thought of one of your body panels being bent up or scraped in the least, sell the four-by-four and invest in something else, because actual, honest four-wheeling is not for you. And that’s not to say that you will, without question, hurt your vehicle…it is instead an acknowledgement that things happen. Sometimes you can predict what will happen, and sometimes…well, sometimes you just can’t.
The Polaris RZR has been trying to attack the hill climb and to be fair to both man and machine, this is a pretty worthy hill. Momentum and power are the key to blasting over the crest, and the Polaris driver is doing his damnedest to make it. Unfortunately, on one attempt, things go horribly wrong and the Polaris goes bouncing down the hill and onto an XJ Cherokee that was parked at the bottom of the hill. Whoops. From where we sit, two things come to mind: the RZR’s accident was honest and the XJ was parked in a bad spot. It was pure luck that the two vehicles met, but then the shouting begins. Honestly, if we were in the Cherokee, it’d be time to hand the RZR driver a drink. He could probably use one.
What do you think? Perfect time to start yelling or honest accident?
Language warning: there’s plenty of it.
I’d be pissed, it’s hard to see the damage but I bet that Cherokee is technically totaled now judging where it got slammed.
The rzrs and side by sides all look like a blast, but they have taken over some local wheeling areas and have helped further deflate my off-roading desire. My poor jeep hasn’t seen dirt in a year or two.
I actually kind of like what the RZRs and Side-By-Sides have done; they’ve kind of stolen the cheap buggy/truggy niche, keeping people from hacking up aging iron for their rigs. They’re saving old rigs for us who still want a jeep/cruiser/pickup and don’t mind ventilated floorboards.
Why would anyone park that close to a hillclimb? Plain common sense would be not to park where someone is likely to crash
what a bunch of loudmouth wankers, seriously…if you’re gunna thrash your shit up a hill ( or park where said shit might fall down the hill) then you have to at least expect there might be some damage. So this, to me at least, looked like an honest accident – but to then start yelling at each other about it is just stupid. None of them are particularly brave about it either… wanna fight? then polaris boy and jeep bot should have settled it between them, not 30 mouths on each side hiding behind their buddies while they yell at each other….
New infomercial. Double Stacked Budlight + 4 Wheeling Offroad = Accident.
LOL
What a knuckle head for parking so close.
didn’t they sign the insurance ‘responsibility’ wavers when the they
came in the gate??? yeah, right 🙂
Cleetus regretted putting viagra in his fuel tank – as his Polaris tried to rape a poor Jeep!
These are the people that elect our leaders…………..
Oh yeah, Brother – you got that right!
I’m a moron and this is my wife
She’s icing a cake with a paper knife
Everything we’ve got here’s American made
It’s a little bit cheesy but nicely displayed!
RIP Uncle Frank!
Why would you park your car at the base of a hill climb??? Was this his first time or something?
