How do you rate the 4R as an off road all terrain vehicle ?

That was great! I loved the little jump and landing over that hill. It looks like the front suspension definitely hit the bump stops on the landing though.
 
Taking off is easy...the landing part can be painful (for both vehicle and your wallet). That video shows you a good way to trash your 4runner!
 
heh heh... reminds me of many years ago at a mountain biking meet in SoCal, right after I had bought my first Jeep and had no clue about how to 4-wheel. I had to drive the officials from the start to the finish of the course and I just took off over the rutted, rock-strewn trail, much the same speed as the truck in the YouToob clip. The poor guys with me looked terrified. I think one might actually have bounced off the roof. Needless to say, they got out very fast when we arrived.

How the hell did she flip that Xterra?! The ditch looks tame...but i guess that it could be deeper in real life.

My guess... not seeing the edge, getting one wheel off the edge, then over-correcting to put both wheels off and tumbling down. The edge of the ditch on the side she's standing looks to be about 4-5 feet.

And the guys in the 4runner probably only stopped because she was hot (or perhaps they knew her):D
