Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Far superior

I believe that 4runner scored about 420 on RTI.

Do you know if it was a RTI score meausred @ 20 degrees or at 30 degrees?

I think that FourWheeler uses a 20 degree ramp.

Good. I would of been really sad if it only scored a 420 on a 30 degree ramp.

If I remember correctly the 2nd gen ramped at around 440 but I could be wrong. Maybe that was the 1st gen.... I'll see if I can find out the specs.

Who is this jackass. In his ML55. My old man has an X5 4.6is, the direct competitor to the ML55... and I wouldn't think about going through more than a farmer's field with that thing. 315/35/20 rears (stock) on a Michelin W rated tire. No low range and no articulation.

The first 10 seconds of the climb should worry anyone. :bash:

Actually, the ML (1st gen) had LOW range and ATRAC. Of course, it's not design for off-roading over severe terrain, but it was relatively capable for what it is.

Check out this parody of the Rubicon owner doing Lion's Back in Utah. This is funny.

Does somebodu have a link to the Blazer losing control and crashing at the bottom but thankfully both people did live. My friend met the husband of the wife who lost it and he recounted the tail for them while out in Moab this last March.

They let a woman drive that??:bash: I am going to get sooo much heat for this...
