    I think also it sometimes has a self preservation mode kick in. A few times i have been bound up on a rock ledge or in mud and no matter how much i want power, computer says no. I put this down to some smarts which is protecting components.
    Yep, makes sense. But not much good to us when we’re traversing rocky terrain and the computers don’t give us the power to do so. I’ve come from a highly modified Jeep Wrangler, really hard to get my head around it. Obviously I’m not expecting it to be as good of road… But I expected more I guess.

    It's possibly as good... Just needs different driving styles. They are very capable, but it takes time to work out how to get the best out of them.

    I have tried it in first and second. Just to be clear, does everyone turn DSC off in Rock mode? What about mud/ruts? On or off? Learning alot here.

    Ive tried both. I leave it on for slow rocky stuff but have tried turning it off to climb a sandy ledge. Didnt make a difference - as soon as the wheels were slipping it would cut power.
