Protection vs Performance

[evldave]

Paragon-

Here's my most common problem. Here in the northwest there are lots of old logging roads that aren't maintained anymore. To keep crazy people like me off those old roads (which can have washouts and can actually be somewhat dangerous to Darwin candidates), they plow up hills at the beginning of the roads. Since I don't like to be told where I can or can't go on public land, I drive over these. Sometimes the angle at the top is such that the front wheels go down before the back wheel go up (imagine a pyramid that's a rectangle at the bottom and a ridge at the top - I don't know what the geometric term for it is). I've scraped that in the center between the wheels many times - my jeep and suburban both had some good protection, but I'm a little concerned about the lack of protection on the H3.
