First mild offroading

[naladude911]

Did my first mild offroading in my mom's QHad to put it in 1/4H to go up this hill

Pretty mild, but fun none the less.

That Q must be Canadian, it has daytime running lights. Am I right?

Oh and Nala, congratulations for making a thread that isn't pure fail!

[Adnan]

gosh aren't our trucks great

imo that q makes the grand cherokee look...well not too great lookin

[naladude911]

hahah ya, its the Canadian model. We moved from Vancouver, BC 4 years ago, and decided to transfer the car. in 2003 it was rearended by a 1993 pathy, 60MPH crash.

Today I went again with him, after it snowed last night, and rained. Damm it was muddy, and so much fun. I was slipping in AUTO though, weird, must be the tires.

[AJRK]

Slipping in AUTO is normal, mine always has. Put it in 4HI if you don't want to slip.

i always use for low for offraoding unless i am mudding or something!

A wise redneck lumberjack once told me, "Use 4-HI to get yourself into trouble and 4-LO to get yourself out."

when i go mudding 4 hi all the way. i love to run at highspeeds into a mud pit and watch it go over my rig!! its freaking awesome. i use 4 low if i am crawling up a hill or down hill thats it or i dont feel like using the clutch so i just throw it in 4 low keep it in first and just crawl trhough the trails

Soooooooooo who do you guys think did a better job at climbing and rolling down the hill, the QX or the Cherokee? hehe

Is the QX Suspension stock?

[naladude911]

Ya its stock lol. The R50 did better, when the Cherokee went up, even in 4H, it slipped.

[exvin]

BTW why is the rear so low? Is it because of the bike rack?

[naladude911]

Could be...... The car is so muddy now. There is an unpaved street near me, and I did 45 down it in the rain. Huge pot holes lol. Car is brown now.

[Qxxx4]

my qx4 must be american then...i dont have DRL's

thanks for sharing the pics!

[naladude911]

You can check easily if its CDM or ADM without DRLs. On the drivers door jam, there should be a Canadian flag with the Canadian GOV (equivilant to DOT) specs for the car.

Yeah, pretty mild - convince your mom to buy some all terrain tires and go hit the rocks....I'll have the pics from the Canyon in a little while (my dad still has a 35mm camera.....blah.) and I'll show you what they can do with 3 wheels on the ground, nose down at 60 degrees on a muddy afternoon. Sweet. But, on the plus side, you've gotten started - good tires and you wouldn't have to be in 4-hi to make that hill. Keep wheelin', your balls will grow substantially till you do something too ballsy and break something and your mom kills you. Then, back to peach fuzz for a while.

this one guys is argueing with me on youtube that the r50 models suck at offroading and that there only built mainly for on road use. well i think he is wrong. The r50s are very capable vehicles!
