    on foot
    * If U assume its too risky, stay away
    seek an alternative route , if possible

    What size tires are you guys running? 100% on the wheelbase. A longer wheelbase can get a lot of weight over the obstacle before the rear tires try and climb. There is no perfect rig, just ones full of compromises for certain obstacles and even for different terrain and street use. Sometimes articulation can actually hurt you.

    • @tacomabeast
      @tacomabeast  3 года назад

    I'd be a ball of nerves trying to drive my 'Asphalt Princess' 2019 TRD-OffRoad over those trails. I've upgraded to bigger tires and a better suspension that clears those tires (no rubbing) but my rig is still too stock to take on those trails.
    I'd need some top of the line sliders and better armor underneath and get some decent wrap-around 'steel' bumpers front and back like you guys have. Only then would I try those trails, oh lastly I'd have to have a fantastic spotter to talk me through it all.......
