Jeep XJ, WJ & Mitsubishi Pajero - Climbing A Very Slippery Hill In The Rain

What was supposed to be a simple climb up the hill turned into something a little more extreme due to the rain. But that's why it was much more interesting.

So picturesque with the fog, I love your tractor-esque XJ ❤
Wish there were more diesels here in the states 😢

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

Thanks! I wish we have cheap fuel like you guys in the states. 😉
The best thing about this engine is that it runs on all types of waste oil. 🙂

Wonderful Slipping and Sliding and that wench came in handy - But mud tires rule the day ! I wouldn't have made it without switching my locker and LED headlights too 🥸

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

When we started, I didn't think it would be that hard. But it was raining and everything became slippery.

[@onefastcyclist]

@@V8AmericanMuscleCar "slippery ' is an understatement for this muck - but you were prepared 👍

[@wyattoneable]

That hill was just like ice! Driving through the small village was interesting.

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

We didn't expect any problems on that climb, but it was raining and here it is.

Another great ride! Thanks for sharing!

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

Thanks for taking a look.
Cheers!

So cool, as always!

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

Thank you very much! 🙋‍♂️

[@jeepgarage]

What a nice weather :)

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

It has its charms when you are in a 4x4.

Blata ko u priči 😃 koliko eurića otišlo na pranje

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

Čak i nije bilo strašno jer je padala kiša pa je sve bilo mokro. Problem je kad se zasuši, onda ode dosta love na pranje.

E...da je netko barem sa pravim đipom...kaj ovak...teške....ja sa X trailom to pojedem

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

Onda možda u idućem videu vidiš samo X-Trail-e. 😉

[@Frankie_000]

Ma quale xtrail ? Ahahaha
Il problema non sono le jeep, ho un grand cherokee grigio identico a quello del video e fidati, è un trattore... il problema quì sono i " piloti " non le auto !!!! E le gomme ....

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

@@Frankie_000 the video doesn't do it justice but this is very steep and it rained a lot. 😉

[@Frankie_000]

@@V8AmericanMuscleCar ci credo ma le gomme del grand cherokee grigio non sono adatte e il conducente, per questo motivo, si è trovato veramente in difficoltà. Credo comunque che il terreno era molto difficile da affrontare!

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

@@Frankie_000 I climbed with XJ for the first time without any problems. When I went down, I had no momentum on my way back and without the winch I couldn't go any further. WJ is on Cooper ST MAXX tires, it's a hybrid of AT and MT tires and once it stopped, that was it.
