Ten Stupid Things
men do to mess up their four wheel drive
1 ignoring wheel cheat
(men know - friends are important -- tires are good friends - treat them well)
2 using too much speed or power
(many times, faster than too slow is too fast)
3 steering at standstill
(power steering is a wonderful tool to break tie rods etc)
4 using the clutch the same way as on pavement
(if you don't know what "starting in gear" means and you still use the clutch to regulate speed - see "A smart thing some men do" below )
5 following one's gut feeling
(most likely it'll be wrong - humans have no genetic imprint for driving cars yet)
6 straddling obstructions
(men should know - they would not take anything high between their legs either)
7 rushing through water
(humans want to rush away from danger and get in trouble during the process)
8 keeping thumbs in steering wheel
(bruised or broken thumbs really hurt)
9 hanging head out of window
(makes you "feel" you are in control - but you'll miss potential danger on the other side)
10 using 4WD after getting stuck
(now that is really stupid!)

Especially when you are crossing and or driving over a big or a deep rut.
RIDE ON...

Basta, kung namatayan ka, hindi naka-neutral ang gear mo and nakabitaw ka sa clutch when you start.
Hindi ko pa sinubukan, eh.

I put it in 4L, 1st gear and released the clutch. tinaas ko pa ang mga paa ko to show my wife na wala akong inaapakan, gumagapang kami on flat land. :D
