Other information:
Your vehicle has higher ground clearance than a passenger vehicle designed
for use
only on pavement. Higher ground clearance has many advantages for off-highway
driving. It allows you to travel over bumps, obstacles, and rough terrain. It
also
provides good visibility so you can anticipate problems earlier...
Lightly brakes each of the front and rear wheels, as needed, when you turn
the
steering wheel, and helps support the vehicle’s stability and performance during
