I took them on the biggest climbs that even I had to hit at speed and rpm, also took them down a fairly tough trail. They walked through everything easily, of course they need momentum and rpm to get up the big hills. Coming down a really steep hill was very entertaining as they locked up the front wheels and carried to much speed. I have some videos that I will try to down load. I had around 8 inches of clearance under my diff, they had 14 inches under their cars.Did you come along as a rescue truck?
How well do they do in the bush compared to a Landcruiser?
I know they’re surprisingly capable, but given the lower ground clearance and 2WD I’d think they’d have a hard time loosing you in the rougher stuff.
Adam had a bit of a kick in the balls, he had his throttle stick near the end and it threw the belt which runs the alternator and fan that cools the engine on a fresh rebuild with only a few hundred K on it if that. Was only a split second but it appeared to have seized his engine, so I towed him for a bit then he dropped the clutch in 4th gear and it started and ran??? He ended up driving home under his own power.
