I'm with Ron on this, and Mark Smith made some good points in a few of his quotes.
To Hinkley, and my responses to your statements are based on what I see when I visit the Rubicon several times per year.
*625 is possible, likely the spouting of a drunk, prowd hick. Many of the rigs you'll see on the Rubicon on a daily basis can hardly be called "trucks" at all. To even include that word in their description is giving them more credit than they deserve.
*Spend more time on the trail and you'll find piles of crap and TP, everywhere.
*There are ALOT of tire trails in and on the edge of Loon and Buck Island Lake.
*"They" DO stack rigs on top of each other. There are very few times I can remember not seeing a stack of rigs piled on top of each other (not just their tires) on the slabs over the Sluice.
*Agree, the reporter did interview a poor selection of wheelers. But he did interview what I perceive to be the increasing representative of wheelers on the trail. There are alot more brazen, drunken, unfriendly assholes on the Rubicon, then there are family-oriented, outdoorloving wheelers.
