I do still like an old school 4x4 though.
Something about slinging mud belching steam and gear whine still turns me on.
I just don't like shoveling mud and carrying around rubber boots anymore.
I understand completely. I've driven both now extensively. And if you really want to grind it out, then the 4x4 is the way to go. If you want to play around in the local mudholes again the 4x4 is what you want.
But you show me a place you want to go, and i can get there too. With a Bose...
I never realized there was a name for it.
But over landing is our family hobby.
My son in law drives point and scout vehicle. 2002 or so land rover discovery.
Next is me. I used to drive a 85 k5 blazer. I'm older now its a 2007 Yukon denali. If we take the trailer, I pull it.

I'll say this: another thread has this thing called "over landing" mentioned. Never heard of it before. But that's sort of what we do. My son in law drives a land rover discovery or his ram 4x4 and we go over landing basically.

That's why, I have found when you start spinning and lose traction ...
Disabling the traction control seems to make the switch from the front to rear axle and vice versa slower. Sort of helps in muddy ruts and stuff when you have to lay into the throttle more. I haven't noticed and difference really in the stable track.
The main thing is to drive to get...
Yes , I drive this thing off road.
I treat it like a truck.
Yes , I've gotten it stuck. To my surprise it does not act like a 4x4
2007 yukon denali xl.
It doesn't behave at all like any 4x4 I've ever driven. That aside , once I learned how to drive it off road its been quite capable...
Hello everyone.
I am the new owner of a 2007 denali xl.
First thing I gotta say: Man, I love this thing. This has to be hands down the most functional, powerful , comfortable and all around favorite truck I've ever owned.
I'm looking forward to a long relationship with this beast...
