Another Thought on Offroading in the Nude
I see but 2 threads on 4x4.. what happened I may suggest one thing if your inclined to drive offroad nude that you keep your clothes close at had for a few reasons. Bugs love the smooth taste of a bare butt or whatever other part they can bite unless u want to try and take a bath in some deet or other strong mosquito repellent, another thing is if you break down lie in the mud or on rocks with clothes is one thing but being nude (its a no no) while were at it if the inside of your 4x4 is well carpetted it might be okay but most of us remove the carpets as there going to get soaked sooner or later going though some stream, that said the floor get very hot enuff to burn bare skin. You get stuck and need a tow you are lucky enuff to have a wench, you grab it with gloves on and pull this wire cable out to where you want to hook it up, a braid of it is loose from the cable and will cut you very bad (just a thot you don't offroad nude.. too many dangers)
I just say Why, Why , Why! So the bugs bite. I've been bitten when hiking nude. I guessed my bum was the bottom of the food chain, eaten by flies which are then eaten by the birds... . It soon heals. And as for being stuck or broken down! my friend and I were stuck in soft sand (in a hire car, not a 4x4). We'd been driving naked and just got out of the car without thinking. Others helped push us out disregarding our nudity. Hay if you want to drive nude just do it - enjoy.
Not sure where your going with this. I take my jeep out into desert all the time and usually end up 4x4 in the nude. But there aren't too many bugs in the desert so never been bit. It's defo a different feeling driving my jeep nude, no roof and no doors, talk about being exposed!
Seems sort of funny folks talking about naked four wheeling like it's a big thing, one of the great pleasures of having a four by four is driving naked anytime you can,,,,,
I never have had bug problems that were more than normal, it's our reptile friends that we have to keep an eye out for since we are in their area,,,,,,
If you get stuck, learn how to avoid it and carry equipment that takes care of that problem,,,,,normal Arizona jeep driving off road always encounter's something unexpected to happen,,,,,
I envy you guys who are saying you don't have to worry about bugs too much.
Here, we're coming up on the time of the summer when just getting out of the truck is a risk. Even airing down at the start of a trail will require liberal application of heavy duty DEET products. I will not go anywhere near a forest trail (hiking or off-roading) without 25-30% cream on, and if the temps permit I'll also wear long pants and long sleeve shirts. The black flies, dear flies, and horse flies will leave you bleeding otherwise.
