A Rubicon rolled off Imogene Pass this weekend as well. Looks way worse than that.

I know wheeling photos never do obstacles justice, but how did that happen?

That's not a roll over, he just flopped on the side.

I'm sure its fine, anyone wheeling in a brand new vehicle has plenty of disposable income to deal with such exigencies.

Looks like he was trying to stretch his suspension off the passenger side. Oops.

No kidding, I have done way worse obstacles and not rolled on the side. Unless the photo doesn't do the terrain justice. I'm not knocking the driver, shit happens.

The environment exceeded the drivers skill.  
Probably went too slow and standing on the brakes when the left front tire dropped off that little ledge, sometimes you've gotta let it roll out a little past the obstacle..Having a tire on the roof didn't help his cog either

Driver panicked from the off-camber and moved too far towards the uphill side?    


On further review, having a second spare tire on the roof isn't a great idea for keeping weight centered down low

It isn't dead-kid sad but major repair bill sad.

Can't roll over to fix the airbags. I think that is like $5k or more alone, provided you can even get them with the takata recall fiasco

Some trails are technically public roads so in a situation like that, yes.

Otherwise not so much. Probably a ton of accidents reported on the highways near trails that didn't actually happen there.

Bummer to see but anybody who wheels/races/does fun things with vehicles should know that if you play with your toys, there is a chance you can break them.

And that hole his front drivers-side wheel fell into was probably just enough to get him over the tipping point.

Weird my taco had an option to turn off the side curtain airbags. I think it specifically said if offroading and going on inclines turn them off so they dont fire. Im guessing they fired, scared the shit out of him and he hooked it onto its side

That is a very heavy spare tire at the very top of the truck. I prefer low gravity builds with a lot of skid plates.

Why do people think putting a 90lbs spare tire and rim on the roof is helping the center of gravity?

True. Mine has a button to turn them off right on the dashboard.
I wonder if they went off because of the flop or went off and caused the flop.

ETA: Damage doesn't even look that bad, friggin airbags and parts broken by the airbags will probably be the most expensive part to fix. Might even be a write off if the seat airbags fired too (new replacement OEM seats are stupid expensive) Also, the pic of it back up on the wheels shows the area to be a lot steeper then the first pics. I can see how he flopped it there. Off camber, one tire in a hole, tap the brakes, ass end lifts and over she goes.

Ugh. No good.

I have a buddy with a 14 Rubicon. Bought it new, put 8K worth of widgets on it and clipped a tree going through the trails. Front fell off, frame damage, etc. It's not my money, but I struggle trying to understand the rationale someone would use to buy a $40,000+ vehicle, add 5-10K worth of bolt ons and take take a chance trashing it like that all while you are paying $700ish a month on it. That being said, I really, really want a new 4 runner with 10K worth of bullshit bolted to it.

Side/roof airbags are not the recalled airbags. Most are driver's airbags in the steering wheel and a few passenger airbags in the dash.

I've had some recalled airbags apart, the design of the charge is the problem so instead of open the whole end blows off in chunks.

They are pointed outward slightly to widen the lighting in front of you. Not uncommon. I've seen quite a few 4 wheeling vehicles with those LED cubes mounted that way.
