[QUOTE="BigJ, post: 119226, member: 62"] I should point out the offroading part of this trip is NOT a high speed affair. Its not a typical "Raptor" type run in the sense that its a lot of slow speed stuff, and we'll probably want to get out and explore quite a bit. We'll want to cover these 100miles offroad slowly. As the article's author Scott Brady said "Progress was slow, as nearly every turn yielded another reason to stop and use the camera." That theme repeats over and over in his writeup. With that in mind, he makes recommendations based on your vehicle's wheelbase: Short-wheelbase vehicles (100" or less) 30" light truck tires or taller Good approach and departure angles Long-wheelbase vehicles (100" or more <-yeah uhm that's us :mrgreen:) 31" light truck tires or taller Skid plate or HD bumpter for departure angle Rocker-panel protection is recommended [/QUOTE]
