Back in the '70s I ran with a 4X4 club. We'd set up trail rides and
always the discussion - WHat kind of trail ride? The pick-up guys didn't
want to bend or scratch up their vehicles and if we stayed on such trails
(dirt roads, really) then the MB-CJ5 guys were just on a 2WD walk in the
sun. And me, with a mighty-mite, 15 ft turning radius, limited slip diffs
front & rear, could run circles around the pick-ups through the woods!
(Literally!) So, we just had to have one type one week and a real trail
ride the next week.
