I have always wanted to see what the Evo could do offroad and wow! This car is so impressive. I followed my buddy in his lifted TRD Tacoma and I could go everywhere he could go. When I finally found a stretch of open road and got on it the car performed just like I expected it to. Having the settings to "gravel" I really noticed the difference from tarmac. Everybody was when they saw me driving around. I will have pics later tonight after I was her.
