Where does the four-wheel underground suspension shine more?

0:04.6

Creeping crawling on the Rubicon or going crazy fast out on Johnson Valley desert floor?

0:10.0

Yeah, good question.

0:11.4

It honestly does great in both scenarios.

0:13.7

Whether I'm going through the Rubicon or doing 50 to 60 miles an hour through washes at Johnson Valley,

0:18.6

it's really impressive what the suspension does. I think that

0:21.5

goes a lot to show how well it's engineered, how well the roll center is controlled, and how well the

0:27.3

geometry all goes together. No matter what I'm doing, I feel stable. I feel predictable. It's fantastic.

0:32.8

That makes a lot of sense because they are designed to be great on and off road. That's true. I do drive the

Happy birthday, by the way. Thank you, sir. Yeah. Yeah, I'm a, I'm a little buzzed. That was a lot of whiskey.
