    Off-road Sand Puma edition

    Ahoy all !, recently picked up a 2010 110 Puma and I'm about to christen it on some nice soft sand around QLD, I just wanted some input on how people like to drive them on the sand. I used to own a pajero and would have no need to drop tyre pressure, activate the CDL or even go low gear. Obviously the defender is a different beast, mine has front and rear diff locks also installed. I'm assuming activate CDL low gear, start in second gear and crawl my way out of the soft spot will do the trick ? Please drop a comment let me know how you crawl out of sand once stopped. Merry Christmas !!

    Sounds like the Paj was a more capable vehicle....

    The last of the TD5 Defenders and Puma Defenders have a nifty anti-stall feature which comes in handy when bogged in sand. See below, but note he hasn't aired down his tyres.

    Life is just a series of obstacles preventing you from taking a nap.

    Not my experience with a Pajero. Happy New Year.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.
