Hey guys. Ken was right. Out of town for a couple of days. I am looking for some good places to go. I believe there is a good off road park over near the Osceola Nat'l forest out I10 I just cant remember the name. Trying to find out where it is and what the lowdown on it is. I will let you know as soon as I do. Always looking for good members here in Fla for Dakota USA. (I am the Fla chptr pres.) In the mean time, please post if you guys find any places.

Hey Guys,

Guess we got Florida covered North to South.

I'm in No. Miami and only get off-road in the Everglades.

Been looking into the off-road areas in Big Cypress but haven't made the trip yet.
Supposed to be nice but lots of talk about cutting down the size of the area for the ecology.

Anyway, info at:
Big Cypress National Preserve
HCR 61 Box 11
Ochopee, FL 34141
941-695-4111
A permit is required. To get a permit you must take your vehicle to the visitor
center to be inspected. Your 4x4 must meet certain requirements in order to
receive a permit. Please contact 941-695-4111 to receive a pamphlet on OHV
rules and regulations for more information.

Hey I live in Citrus county which is about an hour and a half north of tampa. I go mudding on the weekends all the time. We have close to twenty big holes around the county. I have an 89 dakota bright orange with a green undercarraige, with 36 inch ground hawgs, KC daylighters, toolbox, bedrails, lots of others. It only has the 3.9 liter but it turns it's tires pretty well. If somebody is in the area i would love to take them out and show them the central florida mud. I also have a toyota on 35's and a postal jeep on 40's that i mud frequently. I will post some pics of the dodge soon.

Hawkeye, you're right, it's just down the road from my house. If you ever go to visit your family, don't blink when you get to town, or else you'll miss it.

Some people call that part of Florida LA.....Lower Alabama....

We have been there quite a bit. Yeah, you dont blink at all. Have to let you know next time we will be over that way. Over here in Jacksonville we are know as LG, lower Georgia. If you took everyone out of northeast Fl that was from GA, there would not be hardly anyone left.

The next time I'll be down that way will be (maybe) just after Christmas. My idiot brother is getting married and I'm the best man. But that's all if they actually have a ceremony..... I'm generally down there twice a year for 1-2 weeks at a time. I just got back from there a month ago, so...

hey tommy gun what kind of lift do you have on your dodge right now? I have a 4" suspension and 5 inch body lift and they just barely clear, i have rubbed them off road a few times. Before i had the 5 inch body i only had a 3 and it cleared 33 15.5's with no rubbing.

Ever heard of swamp cabbage festival? Its in Labelle 30 mile east of Ft myers on St RD 80. Its commen up in a 2 weekends. There is a big mud bog all that weekend. There seems like thousands of people out there on anything from 3 wheelers, to cut out cars, to jeeps and trucks, to tracked hunten buggies. Its great. Ill be there I know. You should try it. Just ask anyone in Labelle that weekend and theyll know all about it.
Later.
