A convoy of three 4x4 depart Kuala Tahan around 9pm on a journey to Kg. Pagi, Taman Negara. We arrived at this bridge (N04 25.448' E102 27.757') around 12 midnight. Due to poor condition of the bridge, we decide to camp and stay overnight. In the morning, we rebuild by adding another log to make it wider for the Korando's oversized tyres. We manage to pass thru at around 10am and arrived Kg. Pagi

OK guys, what is the difference between 4WD, AWD and 4x4? Why is it has full time and part time 4WD? Which one is better? First, word of caution; manufacturers tend to obscure the true nature of their 4WD/AWD systems behind fantasy names like "Active 4WD", "Quadra-Drive", etc. - others might call their automatic AWD "Real Time 4WD".There are so many different 4WD systems on the market now that it

Words and Photograph by Pat CallinanSo, the track you are driving is starting to get a little slippery and muddy. What do you do? First, drop your tyre pressures. This increases the amount of tread in contact with mudder earth (okay, bad joke). Dumping the tyre pressure to about 16psi (or a little higher if you have a big load on-board) increases the tread pattern length. Sure, your sidewalls

During our second trip to Sungai Bernam, we manage to get assistance from local friends, En. Izani, En. Faisal and Mr. Bronco "The Caveman" who help us trekking further up of the river. Since we bring along our fishing reel and baits, we manage to catch some fresh water fish for our diner. Four WDs that we used to get into Sungai Bernam. The first ride belong to En. Izani and the other owned by

Ssangyong Korando in Malaysia was introduced in 1997. But this model is not so popular among Malaysian. Of course, in Korea, Korando was known as a capable 4WD driven mostly during weekend in the snowy hill or in rocky mountain. The pictures below was taken in Korea during their outing, driven through mud. Let see, how capable this Korando.
