    Umm - shouldn't be the case. A D4 on any type of tyre should run circles around a Puma Defender in sand.

    The Defender being light helps in sand.

    Cheers

    Precisely - which is why tyre pressure (foot print) is vital in sand. You don't want to go in sand wearing stilettos (highway pressure).

    Baz lowers his tyre pressures, but still keeps the Stilettos on

    Have a look at one of Gordon's videos of a D4 towing a camper trailer up a steep sandhill at Yanchep and tell us that a Puma could do that.
