Yeti 4x4 DSG takes on the big boys and impresses

Instructor's hat on.

You stop at the bottom, and walk up the hill assessing the slope, and top run-out.

Return to car and turn around.

Reverse up hill.

Agreed, maybe not the only way. But you know how most people will do it on the day Graham.

1,2,3... waahheeeyyyy !!! :D

Agreed, and how often it is followed by the characturistic "clatter" of a broken diff or half shaft!! :giggle:

As soon as you start to go uphill on anything slightly slippery you are screwed due to the weight transfering to the rear. Cue lots of wheelspin.

I wouldn't want a 2wd Yeti on a play site which is typically muddy.

One of the reasons for a 4x4 on order. :)

Just what I was about to say.emoticon-0148-yes.gif

Very good advice, and exactly what I was going to say.

If I had done that the 2nd time I got stuck, I wouldn't have got stuckemoticon-0140-rofl.gif. I'd been up the short hill in a Disco earlier and forgot about that particular pothole right at the top. You learn by your mistakes.emoticon-0106-crying.gifemoticon-0140-rofl.gif (I hope)

The first time I beached on a soft mound, we though it probably would. It was done deliberately to demonstrate a point. I then when over the same mound, but at an angle, and everybody was saying I was showing off as the rear wheel came right up off the ground as the front went down. Tremendous fun.
