Dangerous Drives: Extreme Off Roaders (Speed Channel)
 

Anybody see this episode where they were in Utah, in the winter, testing out the new Jeep Brute pick up and similarly off road equipped 4 door Wrangler?

I just found it found it funny that they used a Land Rover Discovery to break trail.

Yes till the snow was too deep and the Brute had to 'Ram' the snow to break trail.

And I would like to see what total cost was, how much fuel they really used.

Ya, the older Disco had stock sized tires and obviously can only handle so much deep snow.


As for the fuel, I know the wife's HEMI is thirsty in normal driving. Now they were under load, in low for most of it, plus lots of revving...ya, 8 mpg!
