Video of My Explorer on a Trail

[willied]

I finally got some video of my Explorer doing some pretty light off-roading. Like all other videos with hills involved, it's steeper than it looks at parts. This road isn't maintained, and it ends up running into a sort of swamp area. There is a place that does Hummer H1 tours and they go through the swamp (which I've done twice), but I'm not willing to do that with my 2WD Explorer.

This is near Collingwood, Ontario (I have relatives who have a cabin there), and my sister and I decided to film it as a spur of the moment type thing after we went mountain biking. The trail is pretty tame, but I just thought it would be nice to have a video of my 4th Gen going off the pavement since so few videos exist. Anyway, enjoy.

I can't seem to embed the video, so if it's possible that a mod could help with that that would be great.

I enjoyed that video, not much videos of 06-09 doing anything. lol!
I liked the ending part, that's when 4 wheel drive would've came in handy

Cool, I would just stay to one side or the other to stay high up and protect from hitting rocks with the oil pan.

Thanks! I felt it was my duty to get some video. 4WD would be nice.

I hear ya. Any particular part you're referring to in the video (the end, maybe)?
