Tips for First-Time Off-Road Drivers 

It would be irresponsible and probably more than somewhat dangerous to just jump in your vehicle and hit some trails. There are few things first-time off-road drivers need to consider. First and foremost, identify the kind of off-roading you’re going to be doing.  

Light Trails — Unpaved or otherwise rough road.  
Overlanding — Not technically difficult but does involve driving in desolate areas with little infrastructure. 
Mudding — This will get your vehicle dirty. Most trails will require four-wheel-drive and all-terrain tires. 
Rock Crawling — A specialized version of off-road driving. This will definitely require a modified vehicle. 

If you want to start the process of modifying a vehicle for a new kind of off-road driving, ask a Third Coast Auto Group product expert what we have available to start with.
