Glad you were able to use some of the video I shot. I also like the fact that you are not affraid to show your rig messing up and falling. I wish I could see the video where my High Lift (the white one without the bed in the video) took the long dive to the ground. You show the start of it, but not the end... Guess it didn't get on film? If it did, I wanna see it.

It was about a 6 to 8 foot drop. It landed square on the roof... I feared the worst, but all it did was crack the windshield.

Yeah that would not be good. Yours is just a high lift window, you can get them for pretty cheap. A bruiser window is like $40. But i will be standing under it to catch it if it falls.

it's a different driving style if you got a scaler like that, you just should'nt go near drop - off's . I'd be scared!!!
although halfcab would disagree. He drives his like he stole.

Yeah, I walked up with my High Lift as I took the easy way up the back side. I didn't count on the really hard decent on the back side so I was trying to drive down while being on the rock with the HL. Won't make that mistake again.

I have a buyer lined up for the 3-speed and plan to use that money to make my Lift a lot more capable. It is very top heavy now and has very little ground clearance at the skid plate. Hope to fix that.

If you were going to get one, just pay a little more for a bruiser. I got my bruiser for about $600, and $80 of it was just for shipping . A high lift is $350 plus radio system and esc. It's like $450. If you are lucky, you can get a bruiser for $500. But the bruisers are all used, and can be in bad shape.

Yeah, they can be (both a Bruiser/High Lift). I have the pic below as my desktop background and everyone that see's it thinks its real. Usually get asked the question, "How do you have that and work here?"

Oh, I did drive it into and out of this pic.
