    Well, if road-construction detours count... 4 years ago

    Then yes, my SUV’s now been off-road.

    I had to drive around a construction site the other day. Drove through about 150 yards of unpaved shoulder and the land off the road to get around the construction vehicles and barricades. Did a bit of bouncing, a little spinning of the wheels, nothing spectacular.



    No real need for the full-time all-wheel-drive 4 years ago

    So the Ford Escape I got in June 2005 would probably hold its own in the off-road experiences I can see myself having—mainly driving down unpaved, rocky, rutted roads in backcountry areas that still have cell-phone service—but I’ve yet to take it off-road at all. Unless I cound the gravel and dirt roads I drove on Lopez Island in the San Juans in August, but those were weenie roads and we were only about half a mile off the paved highway.

    Anyone have recommendations on a good place to start the off-road experience?
