my wife and i lived in chicago until about three months ago. we moved to colorado and love it so much!
there is obviously a ridiculous amount of trails in colorado and today i put the rebel 12 crew cab through its first trail. devils canyon in idaho springs. rated as moderate, pretty tight and a couple steep spots with LOTS of dispersed camping sites and great views of the surrounding valleys. the ram handled it amazingly for how big it was and how tight the trail got. 4 hi the whole way, only scraped my mud flaps which will probably be coming off soon, and only had to turn the locker on in two spots. with a little guidance in those spots from my buddy, made it through with no issues. even had her teetering on two wheels!
the one picture of the trail doesnt do it justice, those dips are about 3 feet deep! it was tight enough to earn myself a few trail scratches, but, hey, its built to be driven offroad right?? dont wanna be that guy who buys an offroad truck and doesnt take it offroad... i bought a rebel not a raptor.
cant wait to do more trails!
ill get some better action shots next time, i was too excited to be driving up a mountain in my rebel to take good photos!
EDIT: i was def in 4 hi the whole way, not 4 low...
