Series text
"
Deep snow, tire failure, recoveries and more. The deepest snow we have had so far and it brings both fun and troubles for the Land Rover Drive team. Me (Simon), Erik and Ørjan go offroading with a Land Rover Defender 110, Range Rover Classic and a Discovery 4.
The snow is deep and the cars handles it in different ways. You will se winter tires vs Mud terrains and you will see which terrain response mode the LR4 should use when driving in deep snow.

Defender still not getting stuck... Hmm, driver skill or just an awesome Land Rover. What do you guys think? 😀😀

[@scottasbell5837]

Give it time. We all push our vehicles capabilities until we find the limitations. 😉

[@LandRoverDrive]

@@scottasbell5837 Hehe, strange how that works. 😀 I guess it's part of the fun and how you learn to know the cars. 👍😀

[@erikiversen4497]

The advantage of being the secound vehicle up the track ;) :P

[@LandRoverDrive]

@@erikiversen4497 Hehe, Airing down vs not airing down. :) Next time, we should film before and after airing down, just to be sure what the difference is between the wintern and the MT tires. 😀👍

[@erikiversen4497]

Good idea! :)

[@scottasbell5837]

Outstanding video guys! All is well in the land of Norway as Erik is rescued and the LR4 gets to tool around in the snow. As an LR3 owner it's fun to watch the LR4 exercise its special features prowess. Just last week I was wheeling round in about three feet (91 centimeters) of snow and became stuck. Much shoveling later I was up and running again. Eagerly awaiting the next video.

[@LandRoverDrive]

Thank you so much! :) Three feet, no wonder you got stuck! 😀 Always good to have a shovel in the back during winter and hey, free exersice. How did you get stuck? Did you flat out on the snow? I really liked how the maxtrax worked in the snow. I didn't have to high of expectation for them but they really did great. 😀👍 Aiming for part 3 release on Sunday the 10th of march. 😉 Thanks again for watching and for the support!!

[@scottasbell5837]

Thanks for the response. @@LandRoverDrive Getting stuck was a result of a similar problem your LR4 had. I couldn't see contours and became high centered. I was driving around 7,000 ft elevation and the snow was wonderful powder when the entire underside became caked solid. Yes, very good exercise.

[@bushcraftwildspirit]

Nice , waiting for the next trip !

[@LandRoverDrive]

😀👍 Great, can't wait to starte editing it tomorrow! Thank you so much for watching and I'm so glad you liked it. 😀

[@masheerfishing]

Great guys... Having fun in the snow? Waiting for more videos.

[@LandRoverDrive]

Really fun, one of the best days this year! :) Can't wait to go back out there. More video will come through the year so remember to subscribe and hit that notification bell so you don't miss out! :) Thanks for watching! :)

[@stephenswift8001]

Great video guys! I love how the dog seems to be having as much fun as yourselves! I really like the design of the Discovery 3 and 4. It kind of tough and functional with a bit of class; almost in between a Range Rover and a Defender. The new Discovery's design I think is a little fussy; but I could get used to it if I had one!

[@LandRoverDrive]

Thanks man! Storm is awesome and he loves the snow! 😉👍 The D3 and the D4 is one of my favorites when it comes to "modern" Land Rovers, and it's as you say a fine middle way. I have a D3 as my daily drive and it's just amazing to drive. The new D5 I guess takes some time getting used to, but I think I would go for the new Defender(Discovery) as it's looks like it's going to get the same look as a Discovery 3/4. 😀 Thank you so much for watching and for your support!

[@silentfill1295]

Nice clip guys :D 💛

[@LandRoverDrive]

Thanks man! :) Really appreciate it! :)

[@ulrichkeil9491]

Good towing-work and obviously great fun. Planning a Polartrip on my own on 24th February with my Landrover 110. I am curious if i make it….

[@LandRoverDrive]

You will be fine. Just take it easy when there is changing road conditions. At the moment, if you follow the E6 in Norway, there shouldn't be any issues. I'm located in the middle, Trondheim city area, and there is basically no snow here now. So main roads will be easy driving. :)

[@andrezimmermann2458]

Simon, Great Video again! Just a question, do you tried to use snow chains in these conditions and if so, does it make a big difference?

[@LandRoverDrive]

On snowy road we don’t use snow chains. Would have to drive so slow. If we go into deeper snow or there is just ice I would put on the chains, but only where they was needed. We drive on proper winter tires which works really great in these conditions and the colder it gets the better grip you get, to a certain point of course. 😊 There is a old video where I drive with snow chains just to get up the last hill to my brothers cabin. Just search for snow chains in my channel and it’s the one with my Discocery 3 in Selbu. 👍

[@marcusj4467]

Very nice guys, curious if you’ve tried Exitrax? Also are you just using tow points as opposed to rated recovery points, seems like you were doing very controlled tows, good move :)

[@LandRoverDrive]

Hey Marcus, I don't think any of us have tried the Exitrax. We all have MaxTrax. On the Defender we were using the tie down points which are not rated for recovery, but with double hookup and easy tows it was fine. Rated Recovery points are always to be preferred and something we should have had in order before we went out. :) We like controlled and safe recoveries and we all agree on that safety comes first so I feel always safe when we are doing these pulls.

[@LRAdventure]

great!!!!!!!!!!

[@LandRoverDrive]

Thanks man! :) Glad you liked it! 😀

[@uncleSamsites]

Is it ok to use the towbal for this light recovery?

[@LandRoverDrive]

The rule of thumb is to never use the towbal. You never know if the car can get stuck or other things happens. We are doing it very slow and easy here so probably would have been fine, but real recovery points is what you want and need if you are going to be off roading. :) Thank you so much for watching and stay tuned for part 3 and more through out the year. 😀

[@haanjamiis]

Ronny Dahl just made a video about towball recoverys. Basically: Don't Do it! kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3enZXmaZZiVp5o

[@LandRoverDrive]

Yep, crazy shit.. Ronny has the best channel, and is one of the reason why I started this channel. :) Really recomend following his channel. 👍😀

yes. use it!!!!

[@svein-haraldribland8559]

Hvordan trikset han D4 opp i extension mode? ⛄️

[@erikiversen4497]

Med diagnoseapparat eller telefonen regner jeg med.... :)

[@svein-haraldribland8559]

Erik Iversen Ok

[@LandRoverDrive]

Hei, han bruker iidTool til å heve bilen i extended mode. :) Funker bra, men ser den blir litt vel spretten over humpene, så for litt raske løyper ville jeg ha holdt den nede, men til crawl og lignende der man trenger litt ekstra høyde er dette veldig kjekt. 😀👍

[@Alienking01]

I can't understand most of the words. Can you please do under titles or get a better microphone?

[@LandRoverDrive]

Hey and sorry about the sound quality. Got the mic but not the mic adapter... GoPro mic adapter was sold out everywhere, and I have just orderd it from the one place that have restocket. So it will only get better! :) There are English subtitles for the norwegian parts at least. :) The videos are open for translation from you, the viewers so hoping someone that has the will and time will translate some of the videos. 👍😀 Thank you so much for you feedback! Where are you form, which language do you speak?

[@mrcvry]

Looks like you would be in big trouble if the Defender would be stuck too. 😄 It is better to not use the reverse gear for towing. It is build weaker than the other gears.

[@LandRoverDrive]

Hey and that was wat I said to the other guys... :) Maybe in part 3... Who knows... :) And you are quite right, I was supposed to put it as info text in the video but I forgot. Know this issue, only learned that last year watching another video. :) That is why we are using the long snatch strap, more stretch, and just idling in reverse. :) Soft snow is prette safe too, but should have gotten the text in so newcomers to the off road world don't ruins their reverse gear and diff's.. :) Thank you so much for supporting, giving tips and commenting. Really do appreciate it. :)

[@mrcvry]

Land Rover Drive If you put up some info text, you could add: Never ever use the tow ball for recovery. Too many are doing that. Ronny Dahl made some videos about how they become a deadly projectile.

[@LandRoverDrive]

@@mrcvry I haven't gotten around to watch that yet. Have watched almost all of his content, and he is a bit of a inspiration for me starting this channel. :) Looking forward to watching it. 👍😀 And to your point, will add that too in part 3. Thanks for reminding me. Lot's to think about when creating these videos. :) And keep commenting tips and tricks, we are all learners here. 😉👍

[@mrcvry]

Land Rover Drive Me too! You never stop learning.

[@LandRoverDrive]

@@mrcvry That's for sure! :) And that's why it so much fun going out there every time. 👍😀

[@Retro_Rich]

Storm 4 leg drive beats Land Rover 4 wheel drive.

[@LandRoverDrive]

Every time. Good fun having him on our trips.

[@micks7655]

when you drive on that kind of terrain you need chains with you just in casse

[@LandRoverDrive]

Yeah, it definitely won't hurt to bring them. :) I didn't have for the Defender back then but I do have for the Discovery 3 now. :) Been tested and works great when all else fails.

[@gravelten4]

wow-these guys are amateurs.
