Has anyone tried the CRV's 4x4 capability, i.e. mud, snow etc, and not just mounting the curb when dropping the kids off at school Curious as to how capable it is before I take it to a shoot and get it stuck in a muddy field - wondered if it can handle it or whether I should just takes my Series III Landrover. |

I drive my CRV on Pennsylvania state forest roads year round and have had no problems. These roads are unpaved and not maintained very well during the winter (plowing) and I have not had a problem. They are also very muddy in the spring. I do take it easy though, no real rough stuff and such, but there are many grades that I climb and descend. I also run M&S tires that have a slightly aggressive tread pattern. One reason for buying my CRV was for running these roads as they are a wonderful place to view wildlife and there are many primitive camping spots and trout streams along them. Here's 2 pics from my travels. http://tinypic.com/i35tn7.jpg http://tinypic.com/i35tv7.jpg Here's a pic of my wifes van when I used it on a forest road last summer. She was not happy. http://tinypic.com/i35u9i.jpg |
