| ![]() Moral of the story - dont push him to bring the Khukri out, because it then HAS to draw blood! Welcome back once again, Gurkha! |

It is difficuilt to imagine the terrain sitting here, but i think you are right, you should have put that in first and let it crawl with diff locks on. I saw this phenomenon yesterday in Palar otr. Sand was loose, virtually every 4x4 was struggling. I made it on sheer momentum some how, but later Arkas MM540 XD driven by his brother stalled midway. I thought he is stuck. But with slight throttle and first gear low he inched slowly. The LSD both in front and rear did their job. If LSD can do, diff locks can do it better!

Senior - BHPian | ![]() rhandle, I read this test drive atleast 100 times. I had this magazine, but lost it ![]() I think Car India is the only magazine which features the price and technical features of Gurkha. Rest of the magazines dont even consider Force as a Personal segment vehicle maker. I remember seeing the quote there- Alternatives- None/ None /None!! I guess they have changed that to Mahindra Bolero now!! ![]() I respect this vehicle, infact i like this a lot! Force is killing its own brilliant product by its age old business practices. |

| ![]() Just back from my trip to Bhandavgarh. Did nonstop from there to Ghaziababd a total distance of 958 kms. Have most of the good things and few bad things about the car. Since still tired from that "17 hrs" Journey, would fill this place soon. And Yes we sighted Tiger in the park - my first time! Just attaching a pic where I took the vehicle down from the bridge near the Son river - a small picnic, since we overslept and missed the morning Safari that day :( ![]() |
