Took my good friend @MJE out with me trail riding today to show him how well the sport BL can do and it was a total blast. Almost got stuck twice trying to AVOID the hard lines but putting it in rock mode got us out both times. Trail control is essentially a cheat code for hills and the factory falkens are phenomenal when you consider just how good they are as an on road tire

Awesome trip thanks again my friend! I’m amazed, & maybe it was my old phone hiding too much detail, but through the windshield it looks like we’re just out for a Sunday (ok Friday) drive on fire roads. Which if we want to explore farther around the roads there I can do that. You’d shown me where the girl in the full-size outer banks turned around, & that would’ve been about where I’d be out too for my skill level as a driver. Past that the only vehicles we saw out there were dirt bikes which might be telling :D.

As was suggested to me clearance & articulation become limiting factors. So the Jeep guys build something like this. So it really is impressive what the factory Falken tires can do for also being a good highway tire. Overall I’m not the least bit ashamed to say the Sport’s capabilities exceed my skill level as a driver! Glad your great driving got us through!

The only limitation I've run into so far is clearance. I've taken mine on some tough roads. One is a sandy hill that is scary to go down because you can't see the road (or couldn't w/o the front camera). I've been up and down that stretch. I did clear some of the mesquite on both sides of the road to allow me some room for a better line. I tried it with my Trailmaster minibike with ATV tires, and it didn't have the power to do it.

Yea did use the front skid plate a few times (did put a dent in it lol!) and I am pretty sure I dinged the exhaust where it routes under the rear diff. Did also manage to put a hole in the front bumper from where the frame mounts the tow hooks.
