If memory serves me, I believe this is the FJ that literally had the ground drop out from under him...the mine shaft was not open and exposed...the tunnel caved in when the FJ drove over it. I could, however, be remembering this wrong. Either way...still sucks...for anyone...with any vehicle.

That's the story I heard too.
We saw a picture of this at Bickell camp in Red Rock when we were there in January and yes it would suck hard but all part of playing in the desert.

I do love the OD green, if I ever need to repaint that's how I'm doin it. And flat, not shiny.

Man that just makes it even worse! What bad luck!

So who ended up being responsible or "at fault"? I mean its not like he was driving around like a nut... just looking for somewhere to take a leak.

Yup - that's Spert! Steve's a helluva good guy, lives in Bakersfield and wheels all the time. He realizes this is his claim to fame! *facepalm*

He's regularly on the Socal forum if you have any questions about trails in Socal - he's literally been on all of them.
