Best of the Off Roading Vehicles

As cars have devolved over history they have made some very large bounds in technology, which has urged many to push cars to there limits and conquer some amazing feats. Cars have been pushed to their limits in a variety of categories including speed, agility, and off roading ability. For many the freedom of off roading has caused a increased amount of interest in off roading vehicles and the sport of off roading.

Off roading consists of driving through all types of conditions including, rain, mud, sand, snow, water, and rocks. Along with this variety of conditions presented an of roading vehicle has to be able to withstand a lot of beating and needs to be able to ascend the steepest inclines.

When people first think of off roading they think of only a jeep right? Well if this explains you, I can inform you that there are many other SUVs and trucks that have been strictly been produced with those off road enthusiasts in mind. The Jeep as although the first off roading vehicle that was mass produced. The Jeep made its first appearance on the market in World War 2. The Jeep was made to transport soldiers across large distances through any conditions. The Jeep was small and agile and had the ability to carry many soldiers and supplies across the must rugged terrain. After World War 2 ended many of the soldiers were in love with their experiences on a Jeep. With this large amount of interest in these vehicles, Jeep began to produce these cars for the everyday driver. Since the production of the Jeep other SUVs and trucks have walked in its path with increased technology and off roading abilities.

Some of these vehicles that have descended from the Jeep have been, the Ford Bronco, Ford Raptor, Land Rover models, and the Mercedes 6x6. Although this is only a few of the many SUVs and trucks that have been produced within the last few decades these give a very good representation of what has come after the first building of the Jeep.

The Ford Bronco was first produced in the late 1900s, and was a very rugged and simple looking SUV that sat very high off the ground. The Ford Raptor has been produced for around 10 years now and is probably the most well known off roading truck with its very large v8 engine. The Land Rover now not only represents its off roading characteristics but also its luxury. Because I mean who wouldn’t want both luxury and off roading abilities? Although these SUVs are very capable none of these can match the Mercedes 6x6. I mean it just makes sense this SUV with 6 wheels turning is obviously better than just 4. And not only is this SUV off road ready but its Mercedes interior engineering gives it the technology and luxury that could satisfy anyone.
