Had to laugh at Cadogan's towing vid...mainly cause he hates LRs and yet the cars he hates and advises never to buy have all the safety/functionality features he sprooks as necessary and in most cases fitted as standard in LRs....unlike his sponsors vehicle Hyundai Santa fe used on the vid!!
I smirk at folks having to shell out thousands to upgrade suspension..for example..every time I hook up a trailer to our D4 and the car takes care of the rest.
I demonstrated our D4 EAS to my mate who spent 20k on his 200s suspension...suffice to say he was visibly gob smacked...how does it do that he said!!
Geezs he said wish mine did that.....
It's a cruel world 😉

SubscriberSomething that doesn’t get mentioned is the safety issue. In QLD the maximum lift is 15cm. That’s like driving 24/7 at about super extended height. They must be a real handful on the road. To be able to get that maximum lift when needed then drive home at on-road has to be safer.

Agree...and to make matters worse take a look at cruisers or patrols that have rear suspension/gvm upgrades ....they are easy to spot when unloaded as the rear end is usually tilted up in the air. Can't be good for braking or handling..can it?
In Tas lifting to the max height of 150mm (50+50+50) usually triggers an expensive supervised race track swerve and braking test...which most cars fail first time resulting in more mods..eg..lowering..in order to pass.

EtymologyEdit
Unknown, likely*Germanic. Compare*Dutch*spraak(“speech”),*spreek*(“spe ak”),*spreuk*(“saying”),*sprook(“a story, fiction, tale, or false idea”). First recorded in the late 1890s and early 1900s, suggesting a possible derivation from Afrikaans (i.e. brought back by soldiers returning from the Boer War). With the exception of a few early uses of*sprook, the word's spelling has been fixed since it first entered the language. The uncommon <ui> digraph provides further evidence for an Afrikaans or Dutch origin.
I'm old now..so I'm entitled to use the early version😎
