i did it today, it was fun. A friend of mine instructs for land rover for their "land rover experience" classes so me & a co-worker offered him lunch and a few beers for a bit of instruction and some wheel time in the woods. it was more than i expected, we were in a 2010 range rover with about 5500 miles on it, in the biltmore estate's
(http://www.landrover.com/us/en/lr/ex...ltmore-estate/ )private portion of 8000 acres of land, with the trail network all to ourselves.
that's right; me, in an $83k suv, driving over log bridges and though the mud in the woods. it's 1 of four places on the continent where the classes are offered. it was f-ing awesome. i never could justify the cost if i had needed to pay full price, but it's all about who you know. i forgot my camera so crappy cell pics is all i got. enjoy!
the garage

2 sweet D90's

range rover sport getting work (supercharged)

my personal favorite, D110

and another for good measure

our whip

first log bridge crossing.

i got stuck here, but just for a second. the right rear wheel is in a hole deeper than the left front

i'm amazed at how far over this thing will go & not roll

getting a lil' articulation

moar!

and back to the garage to clean up!

it was a blast, i highly suggest it to anyone who has the opportunity!
