Safely go off-roading with Toyota of N Charlotte’s tips

Summer is coming to an end pretty soon. Have you gotten to do all of the activities you wanted to do? If you haven’t

completed all of the adventures you planned on having this summer, you still can fulfill these wishes! If going on off-

roading adventures is part of your summer bucket list, you’re in luck. Not only do you have ample time to go on that

adventure, we’re sharing off-roading tips that can make the trip that much safer and more fun.

Safely go off-roading in your new Toyota near Charlotte

The first thing to think about when you go off-roading is about your vehicle’s capabilities. If your current vehicle

doesn’t have off-roading capabilities, you shouldn’t go off-roading with it. Rather, you should go in a new Toyota in N

Charlotte that has off-roading capabilities.

Some of these Toyota options include the Toyota FJ Cruiser, N Charlotte Toyota 4Runner, 2014 Toyota Tundra, and

the Toyota Tacoma. Once you have determined if your vehicle is capable going off-roading, you have to start thinking

about the limits of your N Charlotte Toyota. Other things to consider:

Ground clearance

Approach and departure angles

Break-over angles

Momentum

Traction

So why should you keep these things in mind? You should always pay attention to the aforementioned things

because they can be the difference between a fun trip and a trip that is plagued with troubles.

Go off-roading like a champ in your new Toyota in N Charlotte

If you’ve never gone off-roading before, you might not know that this activity can be dangerous. Don’t get us

wrong—off-roading can be fun and exhilarating, but can go south real quick. How do you avoid getting into trouble

while doing this activity? We have some safe driving tips that you can implement during your off-roading trip:

Never go off-roading alone

The first rule of going off-roading is to bring a buddy along for the ride. Not only would it be uneventful if you go

alone in your new Toyota near Charlotte, it can be extremely dangerous. This activity can be hazardous if you don’t

know what you’re doing, so having someone by your side is smart, should something go amiss. We also suggest that

your buddy comes in his ride so he can tow you out if you get stuck somewhere.

Know how to get out of a jam

Mudding might be part of this activity, so knowing how to become unstuck is very important! You might think that

just stepping on the gas pedal will help you get out of trouble, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. In all

actuality, you might get even more stuck when you hit the pedal all the way. In order to get out of your predicament,

we suggest you use minimal use of the gas pedal and using the steering to your advantage. However, having a buddy

tow you out might be best if you can’t get free.

Now that you have the tips to help you fulfill this summer activity, have fun!
