The crew cab long bed I drive for work is 21 ft long with a 12'9" wheelbase. It would get beached on some pretty small obstacles if not for the extra height.

Yup, my comment was regarding the crawl gear and its limitations in a 15 year old Honda, not the new Bronco. With proper 4x4 to back it up, it’s going to be a right useful tool to some.
First and second gen CR-V had it too (manual only). Helped me take my 2nd gen many places it had very little business being. One funny quirk though: reverse gear was same as normal. If driving down a steep hill, better hope you don’t have to back up it later. And of course, as with all RT4WD vehicles, as soon as one…
Camo that accentuates the shape of the car does not count as camo.
This will be hugely popular as a work truck that can go off pavement. The ability to tow a tool trailer on weekdays and get through cross ditches on a forest service road on weekends is a very desirable combination.
*Off pavement.
I had the sister CR-V - same chassis & drivetrain - did great on dirt roads with the wheelbase and okay ground clearance. The suspension was supple enough once I disconnected the sway bars, but that didn’t free up enough articulation to get over any serious sort of obstacle. It’s a softroader, not an…
6 years ago I bought an old Honda Prelude that came with the rare and highly coveted (worth $150-200 in mint condition these days) OEM optional armrest. I removed it within a week. My elbow hit that thing with every 1-2 and 3-4 shift, not to mention reverse.
Made mine light up
The old RAV4 was a really great dirt road car, but that video highlights its weaknesses rather than strengths. A great demonstration of why vehicles with no low range and no solid axles should be called sofroaders, not offroaders.
I’m with you that JDM cars are easily available here, but if R33 skylines were practically free, I’d be driving one. The cheapest one on craigslist in Vancouver today is an automatic sedan for $7k.
I was very disappointed not to find any results for #mitsurockchallenge on instagram... yet
Came here to say this. Unfortunately they wouldn’t fit over the brakes on the 4th gen (at least not VTEC models - base model brakes might be smaller?)
My ‘05 CR-V is 5MT/AWD. It’s too heavy to play rally car well, but it is actually fun in its own rolly-polly way. There’s joy to be had driving a vehicle at its limits, even when the limits are low.
This combination seems impossible...
Super Street, July 2016:
Crack pipe for a carbie. A fuel injected one in this condition at this price would be fair.
What do you mean by hub in rotor? I thought that was a term for captive rotors like on the newer Accords.
