I've only been to one of these so far... and it was a blast! Tons of fun to be had in the Ocala National Forest. Hope to see you there.

 

Any comments on Ocala? I just moved back down to Florida and one of the first things I did was take my H3 to Ocala. The red orange sand dirt is horrible. It will stain your tires so bad you could scrub all day. You will definatly have to use bleach tire clean (several times)and then wet shine them. The inside of your tires will be ugly too unless you get on your back underneath the H3 and clean them. The dusty sand will cover just about everything. A high pressure hose will not spray it off especially the undercarage. You will have to physically wipe it off and thats hard to do to the underneat of your H3. A lot of the trails get tight at certain points. The deadly, thorny brush will scrape the sides, mirrors and plastic rear bumper on your H3. It willtake off clear coat or whatever and or scratch. There is miles and miles and miles of places to go. Some places look pretty cool but most of it is the same. I got lost for little while lol. I had fun. Always use protection, for your H3 and yourself.
