Loading Your

Vehicle

for

Off-Road Driving

There are some important things to remember about how to load your

vehicle.

The heaviest things should be on the load floor and forward

of

your

rear axle. Put heavier items as

far forward as you can.

Be sure the load is secured properly,

so

driving

on

the

off-road

terrain

doesn’t toss things around.

You’ll find other important information in

this

manual. See “Vehicle

Loading,” “Luggage Carrier’’

and

“Tires” in

the Index.

Traveling

to

Remote

Areas

It

makes sense

to

plan

your

trip, especially when going

to

a remote area.

Know the terrain

and

plan your route. You are much less likely to get bad

surprises. Get accurate maps

of

trails

and

terrain.

Try

to learn

of

any

blocked or closed roads.

It’s also a

good idea to travel with at least one other vehicle.

If something

happens to

one of them, the other can help quickly.

Does your vehicle have a winch?

If

so,

be sure

to

read the winch

instructions. In a remote area,

a winch can

be handy if

you

get stuck. But

you’ll

want to know

how

to

use it properly.
