there is no argument that landies are the best offroad apart from maybe the mercedes g wagen but other the only way landcruisers are better is reliability

Well, since talking about anything other than stock vehicles is pointless, stock D90 or Jeep, probably not, H1, well, it won't fit -in- the hole so you can rule it out on that, but if you let it ride one side in, it has the weight to push through. My Suburban with 1 size larger than stock tire(2 if I count load range D), high probabilty of success, at over 3 tons, traction is RARELY a problem. My CJ with my friend's ice racing bolts...lawl...2wd easy.
Without tyre chains there's not much traction. H1, Defender, or Jeep wouldn't have made that icy spot. The engine is not overheating, it's just evaporating splash water from engine bay.
Need more momentum than traction when you are trying to climb out of a hole with ice all around it, without studded tires or chains you have no traction on ice.
lol.. yea i hope he's talking about a H1 i have both the H1 the 2004 disco for everyday driver.. love it.. but the hummer can do alot more then the disco can dream of doing but i paid 44k for the disco and almost a 110K for the H1 in 2002 so i sure is hell hope it could do more then my disco can lol.
first dont say get an h-1 cause you probly dont have one either, second h-1's are too big to go on any fun trails, third this isnt a video about an h-1's nor have you posted one so please grow up. if you wanna see a discovery than your in the right place, if you wanna see an h-1 or h-2 or 3 than go watch a 50-cent video
Where I come from I dont think we can even get tyres that would work there. If it were me, I would put some chains on before I tried this drive but I am not sure that would have worked either.
sayvethan, I don't think an h1 would even fit in that pit, let alone make it through, its too wide. As for Toyota, jeep, land rover arguments, it really depends where you live, and what you can get. Are we talking about the latest electronic gizmo vehicles or older ones with mechanical locks, solid axles, coil springs etc. The fact is, this truck is trying to get a grip on sheets of ice, no wonder he is having trouble.

wow whoever said toyatas or nissans can out offraod a land rover is retarded. land rovers are meant for offroading. they come stock with a good suspension for offroading. toyatas you have to buy a wicked expensive suspension. same thing with jeeps even. land rovers come with them stock

starscream918 What are you talkin about? land rovers expensive? no way, you can buy a good condition defender for about £3000 and have fun in it straight away i know becuase ive done it, and its probbly the same for the rest of the 4x4s for that price. do same homework before you comment.
I'm not sure why I'm even commenting because since I'm not saying "zomg land rovers rock lololol" I'm going to get negative votes. Land Rovers here, in the US, are expensive. Finding one for ~$6250 (roughly) USD like you've said in decent condition rarely happens. Plus, maintenance on them is more pricey than a Jeep or 'Yota. Land Rovers aren't bad machines at all, I'm not saying that. But when comparing them to a Jeep (which I wheel, here come the flames) or 'Yota doesn't make sense money wise.
Oh, and to the comment about "wicked expensive suspension"... what? My lift was right around $600USD for quality springs and shocks. That's not bad. Stock Rovers have a decent suspension at best, but it's still stock. And slightly modified 4x4 could outwheel a Rover. They just don't have enough flex or ground clearance. Toyotas have much more ground clearance in their stock form, and Jeeps and Rovers are close, but I'd still side with a Jeep just because of the price difference.
Im so sick of hearing the Land Rover breaking down sob stories. Fact is if you treat you car like crap its called abuse and you will break any 4WD. I have a Disco 1 and I have maintained it and cared for it. Anywhere it cant go aint worth goin. Im not going to use it as a bulldozer to prove its just as good as a Toyota. My truck has NEVER had a day off.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
They are not as offroad as everyone thinks becuae you have to put new tires on them and jack them up just to get them to go off-road otherwise they will get stuck in a kids sandbox. Seroiusly you have to put offroad tires on them and jack them up.
I know someone who has had the 3 amigos since he first purchased the car. The dealor told him to replace the ABS unit. He spent $2000 on parts and labor and still has the 3 amigos.
yeah apparently if you replace the cables going to the ABS sensors in the wheels it rectifies the problem (because the old series two's used two short cables with a link between them, and the newer ones use one long one) it seems to work, but now we've just blown a starter solenoid ahah.
Never take it to the dealor they are hacks. Find the little guy and then be weiry. I, not knowing much about cars, have done most of the work needed on my 02 disco 2. I changed the drive shaft easy. And changed the breaks shoes. The tree amigos i had to. Once for mass air flow sensor. And once for traction control sensor. The dealor told me I needed a new hub. If you just clean the hole where the sensor skrews into the hub it works fine. No more Amigs but I have a O2 sensor out so check engine.
well, dont you have to do that with all vehicles? jeeps with 5+ inch lifts? new rear axles, engines, then they're incredible offroad machines? what about trucks? lift em and put new tires on them too. the thing about land rovers that sets them out from the pack is their technology. the electronics is so advanced, where as others may just rely on suspension or axles or transmissions, drivers can just sit back and worry less.
Ive never been off roading before, but would love to. My dad had a hummer h2 but, I can safely say that its one of the worst cars ever. I dont know how it does in the mud though:)
dude i agree the old defender you see them thrashing it up offroad bone stock but a discovery, no. all the discoverys you see are lifted, jumbo tires etc.
Why do people think freelanders are crap? We went round the off-road course at the LRO show at driffeild in it and overtook a disco that got stuck in deep mud. The weakest part of the drivetrain is the rear diff but as it is mainly front wheel drive you could get it home. The most common parts that wear out are the IRD and the Viscous Coupling. Thats what people think break on them. You have no idea how strong these things are, do you?
Gotta give it to the driver he beat that truck like a red headed stepchild. Pity what he did to his truck I hope hes a mechanic.

I have a Disco 1 and I have maintained it and cared for it. Anywhere it cant go aint worth goin. Im not going to use it as a bulldozer to prove its just as good as a Toyota. My truck has NEVER had a day off.

Disco 2s are suffering major problem with the electrics (lucas), and I dare to say that I don't trust em.
I love the disco2 though, nearly bought one one year ago.

They are not as offroad as everyone thinks becuae you have to put new tires on them and jack them up just to get them to go off-road otherwise they will get stuck in a kids sandbox. Seroiusly you have to put offroad tires on them and jack them up.

ahhh no, they're suprisingly able offroad, except if you get the three amigos and the car wont move ;)

I know someone who has had the 3 amigos since he first purchased the car. The dealor told him to replace the ABS unit. He spent $2000 on parts and labor and still has the 3 amigos.

yeah apparently if you replace the cables going to the ABS sensors in the wheels it rectifies the problem (because the old series two's used two short cables with a link between them, and the newer ones use one long one) it seems to work, but now we've just blown a starter solenoid ahah.

Never take it to the dealor they are hacks. Find the little guy and then be weiry. I, not knowing much about cars, have done most of the work needed on my 02 disco 2. I changed the drive shaft easy. And changed the breaks shoes. The tree amigos i had to. Once for mass air flow sensor. And once for traction control sensor. The dealor told me I needed a new hub. If you just clean the hole where the sensor skrews into the hub it works fine. No more Amigs but I have a O2 sensor out so check engine.

well, dont you have to do that with all vehicles? jeeps with 5+ inch lifts? new rear axles, engines, then they're incredible offroad machines? what about trucks? lift em and put new tires on them too. the thing about land rovers that sets them out from the pack is their technology. the electronics is so advanced, where as others may just rely on suspension or axles or transmissions, drivers can just sit back and worry less.

dude i agree the old defender you see them thrashing it up offroad bone stock but a discovery, no. all the discoverys you see are lifted, jumbo tires etc.
Defenders rock!

Why do people think freelanders are crap? We went round the off-road course at the LRO show at driffeild in it and overtook a disco that got stuck in deep mud. The weakest part of the drivetrain is the rear diff but as it is mainly front wheel drive you could get it home. The most common parts that wear out are the IRD and the Viscous Coupling. Thats what people think break on them. You have no idea how strong these things are, do you?

God our baby landy (Freelander) would do that... He simply wasn't driving quick enough to get the back end to follow the front.
KickassKX125 3 years ago
yeah but you would need a tow truck to get it home after the drivetrain destructed.
