Completely disagree. Heaps off off-roading can be done perfectly well without mud terrains?
Perfect examples above covering the cape, the entire east coast and so on.<<Genesis93>> wrote:Do you need to spend BFG or COOPERS money? No. By all means spend 2x as much as you could...
All I see is someone knocking things.
Got any useful suggestions?

In fact, I see just as many people bogged with MT as AT. Usually the MT people think just because they've got muds, they can do anything.
Prolly more important than the MT/AT argument would be tire pressures and driver input. Both of those will get you further than tread type.

It's all good mate.
He's just showing further with the latest reply he's got nothing to contribute on the topic.

I also can't drop the pressure for getting about the block and then have to inflate them everytime i need to hit the tarmac.
I really need a new vehicle and use the uterus as a property work truck; that's another story all together.
