Hi paul, dmax owner here. Sometimes you don’t really need to rely on all those off road aids, but if you master and get familiar with your own vehicle and driver experience as well, off roading will be that easy.

Good explaining there Paul.Because, no two drivers are the same and would do things differently. Just wondering if there is a tire that's good for both on and off-road. Most are pretty good these days, But it seems there is a gap to be filled, between the best of both worlds.

As always, excellent review. I wonder if you need to add a new category. “Availability” …. Timeframes on the ranger (eg. Raptor) seem to be blowing out to 18months - 2yrs. The review will be outta date by the time they arrive…. Of course all vehicles are slow .. but this seems a little excessive for a ‘launch.’ I ponder how the Amarok is going to go!

2wd diff lock is a step back in the right direction! I didnt catch if 2wd low range possible? In cars of old it was really handy reversing a trailer up hill or in a tight spot in 2wd low range, where grip isnt an issue (and a major failling of current gen hilux etc). In 2wd low range you still have full steering range and exceptional control of the momentum when reversing caravans/boats etc in tight spaces. It may not get used often, but it was bloody handy when I needed it. Just annoyed it's not possible now... this just another reason i wish i still had my old 1994 hilux... just move a gear lever and it happened!

You should mention the 4A Mode, its a big thing, you can press it at any speed, it locks like a Haldex clutch if you need it. I tested it in my ranger, fells the same like 4h when pushing the pedal.. but without tensioning the drive train in curves or on the street
@r3nlot
@r3nlot 2 месяца назад
New to all this. On the road I always drive in 4a. My daughter like to mess around with the settings and I find out by feeling the tension on the drive train. My question, is 2h and 4h a no go on the road?
@bni1887
@bni1887 2 месяца назад
@r3nlot you can allways drive in 2H, its the most economical driving. When its wet, icy or slippery you should go to 4A. And 4H and 4L is only for offroad driving
@texnorthman
@texnorthman Год назад
2:20 - pet hate of mine but 4H does not split torque 50/50, common misunderstanding. 4H (locked central diff) just locks the front and rear axles to the same speed. Torque is "split" by where you have the most grip. In other words if you have the front tires on tarmac and the rear on mud almost all the torque will be transferred through the front axle. Wheel speed is still the same though - don't confuse torque for wheel speed. The only device that splits torque 50/50 is an open diff.

@trickster8635
@trickster8635 Год назад
Your four wheel drive knowledge is coming along nicely, although you are still missing some key points in your reveals. ie, with low-range selected and manual operation of the gears, what is the highest gear the software will allow you to start off in from a stand still? There are situations like mud, where it is desirable to get fast wheel speed to clear the tyres, and this is achieved by starting in a gear higher than low first. eg, low third? Another area of importance for off-road driving is the need to reverse back down a steep hill that you have just failed to climb. Does the car "run away" in reverse gear? What is the gearing like for reverse? Also, at what revolutions does the torque convertor lock-up ?

If already stuck, put it in 4L and lock the rear diff and crawl your way out slow and steady. If necessary or properly stuck, lower your tyre pressures well below 20psi. Beyond that, use basic recovery gear to get yourself out such as a shovel and recovery tracks.

Rated recovery points great - what’s the rating? It’s no use having them without knowing how much they can handle. (500kg rating for example would be useless). Also, the accessory snorkel will only be useful if it’s 100% watertight otherwise it’s pointless. Plus you need to make sure everything else that might get submerged is also water proofed such as the alternator, electronics and door seals etc. You should not have needed a rear diff lock to get through the moguls in 4WD. That’s very unimpressive.

Sorry Ford, failed for me in look department, trying to downscale the front end from the larger trucks available in the US has just not worked in my view - looks to much like the font end is wider than the rest of it. Old model just looks beter IMO. Not that any of these 'mid size toys' look any good to me. All these mid size things look ok for the most part but never great and just look like they are going to tip over if you even look at corner (ie too tall and narrow) and don't get me started on thier inabiliy to even get out of the own way in traffic. I know they have thier purpose, this is just my view and Ford wont be selling me one anytime soon, but none of the other manufacutes be will either.

It actually spins me out the amount of high tech gadgetry is required to make modern 4wds go anywhere off road. ..if you were out in the bush, and used these gadgets to get there.. and then they stop working (as computerised things tend to do) You would have zero chance of getting home. Give me simple mechancs and a limited slip diff any day over this B.S.

" as they tend to do ". This isn't the 80's any more. Anything can and will break. If anything, cars with more gadgetry installed are actually more reliable due to said gadgetry.

Ford really needs to come back to Australia and also scrap the electric cars they are not the future. Australia is one of lowest emissions countries now. Just install auto stop to all cars and there’s a lot of ways to stop emissions from your car without going electric
