I ordered the Four-Wheeler's Bible.
* Have since read most of the book...it covers about every subject in pretty good detail and though most of the vehicles pictured are modded to put it mildly...most of the info pertains to ANY 4 wheel drive car/truck. Good info on how to drive offroad...getting out of holes, etc...building up the suspension...trails...equipment...
Books about 4 wheeling.....

I ordered the book because they were going to charge me $10 for shipping on another book I think I have to have...so I got this one for $10 or so? At least I THINK I did.... :blink: Free shipping?

"Reviewer: Charles A. Wells from Colorado Springs, CO United States
I'm telling all my friends about this book. It's the most complete, in-depth book on 4-wheeling I've ever read. It's packed with so many eye-popping color photos, at times, I thought I was actually on the trail. Jim Allen's down-home style had me laughing out loud. Whether you've been 4-wheeling for years or just bought your first SUV, you won't be able to put this book down.
The 224-page book covers everthing you need to know before, during and after 4-wheeling. Topics include: attitudes and ethics, preparation, emergencies, beginner to advanced mechanics, tires, traction, vehicle modifications, tools, equipment, recovery techniques, navigation and much more. In his unique, tongue-in-cheek style, Allen talks about testosterone poisoning, Chop Suey Mud, vehicular hemorrhages, the battle for traction, what's the diff, manhandling, and the winching hall of shame. You'll learn such things as when anti-lock brakes are dangerous, what to do when a spotter holds up two clenched fists, how to safely step over a winch cable and how to avoid embarrassment by having that one piece of equipment every 4x4 should have.
Don't miss this chance to capitalize on Allen's 28 years of 4-wheeling experience. His credentials include time as off-highway-driving instructor and master technician for Land Rover as well as twenty years wrenching his own vehicles. He is an accomplished photographer and has written six books and nearly 1,500 magazine articles on 4-wheeling."
If you search the web for "4X4" or "4 wheeling" and so forth, there is a lot of info out there.

Give a boy a gun-give a biatch a cell phone-and pretty soon you almost got yourself a police state.
