First trip on some fairly tame trails in West Virginia around Elkins, Davis, Thomas, and Parsons... more overlanding than off roading. Excuse the little mistake in the first clip as I attempted some parts in 2WD, plowing the front end where I didn't want it to go. It showed the benefits of the extra width!

Canaan Loop
Douglas Road
Government Road
Shavers Fork

My main goal was to get an idea of tire pressure that works on both pavement and rutted, potholed old county routes as well as what drive settings are best for the conditions in preparation a 24 hour rally coming up. I found 25 psi worked best while not effecting handling at high speeds on road and 'Normal' drive mode allowed access to desired 4x4 options off road, including 4A. Due to the rally having paved segments I want to be able to use 4A as much as possible so I don't need to change back and forth.

In upcoming videos I'll be installing fuel containers, GMRS radio, and winch to prepare for the trip.
