probably could krawl with jeeps, but can you crawls with an X? In most cases I can krawl with an X but the limiting factor for me is still my longer wheel base.

depends on what you are doing. Ledges lwb is fine. If you are in a condition where you need a good break over angle lwb gets you stuck.

Andy you are right, I really didn't think about it much when I posted. When you get a longer wheel base you can't go some places the smaller guys can go but then you can get over things that the smaller guys may not beable to.

problem with having a longer wheelbase is that take a hill for example: _____________ / / / A longer wheelbase vehicle would have problems getting of the top (The point on the "Diagram") and will run the underside, whereas a smaller based vehicle wouldn't.

yeah, then probably somewhere around there.... b/c I've got a Explorer 4-door and mine is 110".... your you're probably around 120"-125"
That diagram didn't post right btw, it was supposed to look like a hill.... oh well.

yeah, that's true b/c of your width.... another drawback to a full-size.... but think of it this way....
More of a Challenge. ;D
