kimpOy::: :shock: Medyo medium but not light? *gulp* Hmmm, I havent even tested 4X4 in my life! :shock: Uuwi kaya akong bigo o wagi? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Any tips you might wanna tell for newbies like me before we push thru? What to bring, like goggles to find my lost tires in the river? :D Wala pa po pala akong tow rope and other 4X4 necessities. Just a basic stock Safari is all I have.

-Bring re-useable plastic cups and plates to keep your garbage to a minimum
-Never vandalize
OFF ROAD DRIVING TIPS
-THUMBS UP-always keep your thumbs up and away from the steering wheel, its possible that your thumbs may be injured if the front wheelshit an obstacle, causing the wheel to spin violently in your hands.

-AS LOW AS PRACTICAL AS FAST AS NEEDED- Take it easy and dont rush things. Its far easier to read the ground ahead if youre proceeding slowly. The exception is when a degree of momentum is required to carry the vehicle through, or up, some traction, or power sapping obstacle.

UNDERSTAND YOUR VEHICLE- knowing your vehicles lowest point of clearance is usually the diff case- will help

CROSSING SOFT GROUNDS-try to pick the best in line through. Use the highest gear in the low range, if wheel slip, blip the throttle, turning the front wheels from side to side to help find traction

DRIVING ROUGH GROUND-keep speed to a mininum Be aware of the vehicle clearnce and watch out for ruts stumps and rocks.if necessary, drive wheels over obstacle to raise the vehicle over them.

WATER FORDING-it is essential to check the depth of the water to be crossed. Ensure your exists is clear and easy to drive.Use low-range (first if practical, second if bed is soft), enter the water slowly, maintain speed steadily to build up bow wave, Once across remember braking efficency will be impaired until brakes dry out.

When Driving off road, remember to always show consideration- for fellow travelers, whatever their means of transport, for local people, landowners and countryside in general.
Treat everything you come across with utmost respect and think about everything you do, Most of all remember :if in doubt, DONT
