  4. Well deserved @Jeandre Bezuidenhout See you soon in the sands !
  5. Congrats @Frederik Bisbjerg ! You’ve done great on your training course today ! Hope to see you soon on one of our drives. In the evening most probably 😜
  6. @Colin Jordan did you had to install tow hooks on the Dodge ?
  7. Hi @Muzurisani could you please define what you mean with modification?
  8. Agree, the 4.0 Fortuner (new model) is pretty good in the sand. The only alternative Mitsubishi has now is the 3.0 Montero Sport which is quite nippy thanks to the 8-speed automatic and not overly heavy, but the Fortuner has more horses and Torque (but costs a lot more too). I would not mind buying a basic Montero Sport in a few years, as they will be easy to find, and maybe the original 220hp can be brought to 250-260 with some mods. But then again i might change my mind another 20 times by the time is there.
  9. Totally agree. Touch screens are a real pain, but i also understand partially why Tesla is using them. You can avoid a ton or wiring. I also prefer a simple rotating switch.
  10. ABSOLUTELY NOT. Your stock air intake is totally fine, and 200hp in a Short Wheelbase Wrangler is plenty enough to get you through every terrain. On top of that, modifications to air intake (cold air intake or others) will only give marginal improvements. (few percent)...negligible. Remember that doing hill climbs in soft summer sand are very difficult. More improvements can be made with good off-road tyres, lower deflation, and practice practice practice to find the ideal gear and technique. Are you sure the original horses are still alive and kicking ? - injectors, spark plugs, dirty MAF sensor, compression issues these are all potential horsepower killers if not in the best condition.
