You
should be aware that, in most cases, Low Range is intended for use on slippery
or loose surfaces only. Use of Low Range
on paved surfaces can result in severe damage to vehicle’s drive-train. I urge you to your vehicle’s owner’s manual
prior to any off-road excursion.
However, despite the long stretches of graded
and smooth dirt road, there are several places along the Bonanza Trail that
require the use of Low-Range. These
spots will be discussed in the following chapters.
CAUTION:
During
my life, I have met many people who have bought four wheel drive vehicles for
purposes having nothing to do with off-road exploration. Some have needed these vehicles simply to get
to and from their homes during winter weather.
Others have bought Sport Utility Vehicles (“SUV’s”) simply to haul their
families around. Yet, many of these
people were only vaguely aware that four wheel drive can open a whole new world
of exploration and fun. In some cases,
they had no idea where to go and/or thought that taking their vehicle off-road
would surely damage it.
