Default D2 Extreme Offroad Australia

Though you guys would get a kick out this great footage of a D2 (along with an RRS and D4) tackling some extreme offroad treks in Australia.

This is the link to the latest video, but check out the other videos on the page which also features the D2 doing what it does best.

Cheers

Jimmy

So so glad I live in the normally dry offroading of the 4 Corners area. Wheeling in that muck holds no enchantment for me though it was an interesting video to watch. Not that I've never had to go through some deep mud or waterholes but nothing like that as I avoid mud when wheeling or hiking like the Plague. I'd rather not even get out either on foot or wheeling as I detest mud so much and I don't like to damage trails. Truth be told it is a real problem in the area I live in with people deliberately going out "mudding" on saturated fragile dirt roads and dirt 4x trails especially during the springtime thaw. If that's all you have got to wheel in or on wherever you live or it can in no way avoided then I have no problem with it but it is not "Treading Lightly". That is just my 2 cents so you can take it however you like but it was an interesting video to watch and I love watching highly capable Rovers in action. I would much rather watch tough Rovers on tough dry ground however. Thanks for the video though. Very nice Rovers.

Love the video.
I may have a new found respect for the LR4.
That dudes got some coin if he can afford a LR4 and the offroad mod's too.

Forget about the LR4 - how about the RR Sport? I've NEVER seen one of those off-road, let alone rigged up with a winch, etc. Looked super-cool.
