Trail Driving Tactics
- Low-Range Crawling: Shift into 4-Low before ascending steep mountain switchbacks to prevent wheelspin and engine stalling.
- Anchor Duty in Co-op: Thanks to its sturdy chassis, this vehicle acts as an exceptional stationary winch anchor point when assisting teammates stuck in deep riverbeds.
