Obviously you know nothing

I had to pull a Range Rover out of a field the other day

Bloke was well gutted when I dragged him sideways out of the rut he was stuck in

The 4 wheel drive system on the Explorer is awesome, my car basically walked across the mud with the power going from wheel to wheel

Out of interest though, was the RR running on 22inch alloys with low profile road tyres on though?
