This is just one of the many times I have utilized 4WD.
We picked our TT at the factory in Or and planned on spending the night at a hotel before starting out in the morning. The forcast was for rain.
During the night I looked out and to my horror, I saw this:
We would have been stranded for sure if we didn't have 4WD and most likely, that heavy diesel up front too.
It clawed its way over the pass without issue. I was amazed.
While I have often been glad I had it, 4WD was an absolute blessing that day.
