MDX'ers - need your advice concerning off-roading in the X.
Been a fan of the MDX since it came out. Lately, volunteer work has allowed me to do a lot of off-roading on the weekends. I need to get to a lot of places in the middle of nowhere up here in Northern Utah. Granted, the roads I go on are "jeep trails". But, it can get pretty rocky, steep and muddy sometimes.
I'm now torn between getting a couple year old Land Cruiser (great off-roading, but has a host of environmental no-no's) and getting an MDX. I have no idea what the MDX will handle off-road. Nevermind the sage brush scratching my pretty little MDX.....
Any of you have any experience with this? I love the MDX, but can't afford to get stuck in the middle of nowhere....
Thanks in advance,
Dave
