Reader Rides – Off-Road.com Readers Share Their 4x4s

Jul. 25, 2013 By Off-Road.com Staff
The newest addition to the site is a new feature we call Reader Rides, where we give our readers a chance to highlight their vehicle and get a little love on Off-Road.com. Although we only received four-wheel-drive photos this time, we look forward to dirt bike, ATV and other off-road pictures in the future.

Enjoy this month’s submissions, and feel free to send in your off-road rig for a future Reader Rides (see below for info).

A little more from Marcus: “I don't see to many Broncos on the trails so it would be nice to see any others you guys may have,” Marcus said in his submission. “I'm on a very strict budget so mods will come little by little. I'm in the Army and recently stationed in VA and don’t know any other places to go wheel. So if anyone can throw me a bone on any good places to go with a stock vehicle please let me know.”
Editor’s Note: Marcus, thank you for your service to our country! Let us know how the upgrades go!
