I reckon it looks steeper in that pic than I remember.

How did an experienced 4wder get talked out of driving that on a clear, dry day? Out of 8 vehicles in our group, how many didn't drive straight up on the first attempt?

Yep, for serious offroad driving, you've gotta drive a Toyota.

Hasn't been released yet Peter. From what I hear it is a favourable report.
Either in this months issue or next months.

It was a toss up between the two but the better departure
angle and easier parking of the Challenger won out.
