The Exploder held its own. There were a couple of hills that weren't happening and it needed some pursuasion when it got high centered, but other that that there wasn't much that slowed it down. New tires and a front skid plate are a must though. Bonus points if you spot the part that went missing by the end of the day.

The lower valances( sometimes plates) always get ripped off. Ripped mine off the first time I went wheeling. Looks like fun though.

my brother talked shit about my beater ranger until i found out that longer wheelbase vehicles climb better up long climbs and some other terrain.my truck made it up a dozen or so hill climbs and banks that the wrangler woulden't.its been on a tow strap enough for him to defend my pile when jeepers start talking shit.

Looks like fun, The hill in the first pic would have made for a good jump, lol. And the lower valence is always in the way anyways.

^^^ yeah that is one thing we have on them. When we go to BVORR our guide drives an explorer and he has trouble on the long climbs as well as the jeeps where the rangers don't even spin a tire.
