It's a wonder they didn't roll going down a hill using brakes only.

It's just a matter of time till they get out of control and roll on the way down or at the bottom, if they don't learn to use the gear box to control the down hill speed. And there is nothing MONSTER about those Jeeps. Well maybe their ego.

@broncobear1 - The video was put up 3 years ago - and at that time in Dubai - Jeeps on 35" tires was very rare... hence the Monster nickname. Anyway - does your rig have some sort of indicator on the outside telling people you're in Low Range First Gear? Coz the red one was definitely in 4-low. It's just a bit of fun no need to be so serious. And the Red Jeep now has a front locker and makes it up there no problems now :)

What kind of top is on the red jeep

[LaurieBridger]

@glamisfanatic Bestop Half Top for Soft Top vehicles - uses the OEM door surrounds. They also make one for the hard top Jeeps where they provide their own metal door surrounds. They suck and it ripped off my Jeep a couple times while going down the highway. Eventually bought the OEM door surrounds from the dealer and the different top. Trust me, do it right the first time. (May also need tailgate hardware. Easiest way to get that is buy a Bestop Duster cover.)

So you guys must live in dubai? You don't look like locals tho.

@Switchz2 Over 80% of the Dubai population is foreign workers.

@LaurieBridger I think the point he was making is that they're braking going down the mountain, which is a good one to flip your vehicle. He's talking about using the gearbox on a manual where you would control the speed of your car by keeping it in first. Hope you didn't keep the car in four low the whole time you were out there, because it's really not good for the car and is really only needed if you get yourself stuck. I'm no expert but did do a pretty sweet training course today in DXB.

Rookies! Snorkel for sand seriously?? Nothin impressive about this vid except four eps were nice

[iamzero79]

i saw a burned JEEP in one of UAE tourist sand dunes this year. I hope someone cleaned that up or the Dunes had buried it because i cant help wondering about JEEP's capabilities compared to Japanese reliability. Its gives a bad rep for JEEP specially its the busy season.
