SUVs, tudyt ...
Early last year, one of the managers of salon BMW boldly told me in private conversation that the new X5 is now able to ride on the road, they say mshinku taught to move in space, not only for smooth asphalt and as evidence offered to come for a test drive on the road machine thereof, did not make sense to give up :)
Came to the salon at the agreed time with the manager took the car and went to check on the test ... decided to take all the same BMW X5 (E70) 3 liters of diesel. Left the asphalt and entered the route already cooked, it rolled on the sand, and the machine hung out at the end with the words: "and it is possible in that field jerk" veered off the road and rolled the two right wheels sank the most do not want to! Attempts to move the heavy car without success, by the way, and the same "electronic coupling" has been talked about in the cabin, too, no signs of life, drowned right wheels rotate freely in their dug pits and left wheels were dead on the ground.
After unsuccessful attempts to budge manager still decided to call for help and came to some kid on the X6!)))
stopped near the "lame German machine got together screws, fasten, tie up IRS ... X6 could not budge!
he is not buried ... he just could not move on the wet ground, was not at an angle and pull the rope from his friend, he just could not ...
managers that this test drive was carried out and which have already begun to feel some discomfort from the fact that both machines and there's too much to continue to test drive does not work, and on our faces quite cheerful smiles from all that is happening decide to cease to be manufactured luxury nedodzhipami and cause "heavy artillery"! L200 comes to the aid already present locks, all-wheel drive, manual transmission and configured to pull comrades out of trouble! approached the driver foot touched the ground, cursed fools who have decided on a technique to climb into the damp earth not to plow the field. Then without any problems stretched X6, who in turn ran more on cleaning and never returned, latched on to X5, but not so easy to get out ... and jerks and not smoothly to give him the beast, after 10 minutes of trying, they took a resolute decision to bypass Boomer and try to pull it forward ...
As a result, only having driven from our soil compacted durable pickup buries the front wheels to the engine and most firmly stands ... twitching after 10 minutes, coming out of his tired manager, already mired in a white shirt, and says that he is on wheels tires fit only for driving on asphalt, and now the car will arrive on these gravel tires and that's traveled, all pulled out and in general everything will be cool ...
Well, as promised, our rescuer came, but not coming from afar to see how the case, or at least, to feel her foot ground on which to ride going, this young gentleman from all over the course, before reaching us all meter takes a Japanese car in the field, where safely gets two bridges across the old ruts)) that at that moment was on the faces of the tired, missed first trimester, representatives of the dealerships words can not describe ...
Since the beginning of the test drive was held for about an hour, passing close to the road to stop the machine to become pofotkat or just to take a look at what is happening.
at the time when I was about to leave the field of battle "German sports sheds" and Japanese technologies against our Russian gryazyuku Patfainder came, came and took turns to pull all, and all in vain ... heard that yet from Audi "SUVs" came later ... and lastly, heard the sad cues from managers that on the day at their "regular tractor" was off ... not trying to prove that the imported equipment can not go anywhere except asphalt, just the presence of electronics, this technique is still very much not soon replace adequate human and present "generation iPhone" unfortunately know very little about that four-wheel drive and a variety of electronic aids in the car that does not mean that you can go everywhere and in all situations to rely only on themselves need! and if you can not, then sit in a cafe and sip your latte and poke a finger in the iPhone))
