One of my dads had a Jeep J20 truck with a winch and he'd take that fucker places I never thought we'd get out of.
We were elk hunting somewhere up around the Clearwater river once and got that thing so stuck it took most of the day to unfuck ourselves and get out. I always wanted to drive that truck until I was the one that had to buy gas for it. Then it became way less cool than I thought.
Now that (Clearwater) is god's country right there. Took my ex wife's 4 Runner way up the forest service road to Kelly Creek (trib of the Clearwater) once to catch dumb, dumb cutties. No stream crossings though, so no trout or their eggs were harmed.
There aren't many rivers around here where you see people driving through them. A guy tried driving through the Humptulips this fall, got washed into pretty deep water, and the gamie that showed up to assist wrote him a fat ticket for driving on spawning gravel.
I doubt it was actually spawning gravel but he got the ticket anyway.
There was a Chevy commercial on last night that showed some dude driving through the river, too. They've probably heard a bunch of shit about it already.
Pretty much this. I am not suggesting idiots should be out there doing donuts in salmon spawning grounds, but Jeeps are built to be adventure vehicles - to take you places where most people can't or won't go. Sometimes, to get deep into the country to camp, fish or hunt, you need to cross streams and other shit. Usually these are from fire or logging trails that already exist anyway, and happen to have to cross low water streams, because who the fuck drives through a forest knocking over trees to create your own road? So yeah, you will occasionally cross some shit. Tread lightly is a serious Jeep motto, and I don't know anyone who fords a river dropping quarter sticks of dynamite out the window of the Jeep laffing when fish float.
Jeeps appeal to outdoorsy people who want to go where there aren't many people around because they can't get there. In my case, I like to get away from white people.
*All of the above is chinvalid for southern rednecks who do blast into creeks at full speed to see what they can break and then laugh their toothless laugh when the river floods into their windows and destroys their shit. These people are idiots, bu tthey are usually in Alabama, and there is nothing worth protecting there anyway.
Calling bullshit right now. I thought that's what you do.

It looks like a Cat 797F is the only model that could handle such a massive load.
All the pussy sand seems to have had Damone stuck at 9999 posts for quite some time.
If he wasn't a huge fucking pussy, he'd use that 10,000th post to tell me to fuck right the hell off.
This thread is fucked and you're all fags.
