4x4 Test for the Sportsmobile


Went on a short trip just to test the capabilities of the van.  I wanted to really see what it's limitations are.

Overall it performed better than expected.  Since it weighs so much traction on hard ground wasn't much of an issue.  It motored up everything I tried.

Even has decent articulation for a beast.  The van weighs 9850 last I checked.  As long as I kept it slow and didn't let any sideways happen life was good.

Weak points were just being big.  I ran into some trouble in a twisty sand wash full of boulders.  The van is just too long to get around the corners.
