Imagine how scary that hole would have been in a 90.

Hmmm, now in a Disco 2 it would be low range, first gear, push the hill descent button then sit back, relax and enjoy the ride while sipping on your latte :wink:

What fascinates me is the "quiet" cameraman... no narration or "ho!y sh!t" during the "off-camber"... that's one cool operator! :D

Hey Pete,

Neat video, must of got the old heart beating fast!

Is that video from this year? Curious to know how much snow is up at Harrison / Hale creek?

I did that exact spot with our D2 last year, and believe me you wouldn't want to depend on HDC to get you down there! On the last bump we rolled the plastic rear bumper inside out. :oops:

Andy, it was from last fall so I'm not sure what the snow is like up there. One way to find out though....

Even if HDC was used, as far as I know, it only controls speed and not wheel placement so the hole would still interesting. Maybe we should give the HDC a try at Sunrise, Rob are you volunteering? I can bring the latte. :D

I was really expecting a rollover. Thank goodness you didn't. Such a nice truck.

Hey Dave and Doc... thanks for the pointers and invitation but you do realize I was joking about the HDC, right? (that winky face thing was the best I could find for the situation) I still admire the camera operator's composure while the rig teetered on three wheels.
