Ingen Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. The Ultimate Off-Road Driver's Guide by Dave Logan is an excellent introduction to off-road driving for beginners. It is a clear and concise introduction to many of the questions that beginners will face in choosing a vehicle, driving, and modifications. It does an excellent job of presenting both advantages and disadvantages of many of the choices that need to be made by an off-road driver. Each of the 12 chapters is pretty-much self-contained so a reader can choose any topic to read at any time. However, this does result in some repetition if one is reading the book from beginning to end. [Note: The publisher provided me a copy of this book as a LibraryThing Early Reviewer.] ![]() ![]() The writing is clear and straightforward, and the volume is well-illustrated. There's at least a couple of pages on all the main things that need to be considered, though none receive a lot of depth. As such, experienced off-roaders probably won't gain a lot from the volume, and newcomers to the activity may not find all the information they really need here. This volume is perhaps best thought of as a starting point for newbies, a primer to acquaint them on what additional information and skills will be needed. It does that really well, though I'd be concerned that the lack of detail might inspire overconfidence in a potential driver who might be encouraged to venture off without the needed abilities. ![]() ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
When you take your four-wheel-drive (4WD) truck or SUV off-road, there is a whole new world to see and experience. The off-road community is huge and welcoming, and there are lifestyle shows to attend and trail-driving events to experience. With seat time and practice, your technical skills will improve. However, do you really want to head into the forest blindfolded? Driving off-road requires much more attention, skills, discipline, and preparation than merely driving around obstacles. Being fully armed with information regarding the most updated techniques is critical for today's motorized off-road driving enthusiast. The Ultimate Off-Road Driver's Guidecovers topics about what to bring along for a trail ride and how to interact with other trail users. This book covers the various 4WD systems and how they work, how to drive on various terrain (mud, sand, snow, and rocks), and what to do when encountering each of those elements. An entire chapter is devoted to getting unstuck. Covered also are ways to communicate when you lose cellular phone coverage as well as navigation options so that you don't end up lost and on the local news channel. This book is mandatory preparation for your off-road toolbox! No library descriptions found. |
