      @smitajky 3 роки тому +5

      When we are told that we can't walk or camp in the dunes because it causes erosion you can imagine how I feel seeing this. It isn't a necessary trip but one deliberately to make life hard for yourself to "test out" the vehicle. It was bad when I was pushed off the roads because of more and more larger faster vehicles but when it isn't even safe to walk on a remote beach because 4WD with Ginormous caravans and hooning along it certainly makes me feel that prohibitions are warranted.

  • @Jester123ish
    @Jester123ish 2 роки тому

    For anyone considering the Robe to Beachport drive, you can take the tracks behind the dunes to keep off the beaches if you want to play it safe, in particular there is a government map available online that shows exactly where the softest worst beaches are.
    The very soft beaches are the ones to avoid in particular, unless you're really up for it, if you do/are, run 10-12psi, and go with a friend.
    The tracks behind the dunes are far less likely to get you bogged, but will still be pretty adventurous as can be seen in the video.
    You'll spend a lot of time in low range so definitely start with a full tank.

Not declaring it and statements like “I’ve used this for years and would t choose any other” etc make it appear like you think the general public are naive.
