Saw this on TV. Guess our Jeeps are obsolete now. The crossover can do it all :risas3:
Kia Sorrento attempts Hell's Gate in Moab

Very true! The bigger tires and more ground clearance just helps in that you can take lines that a vehicle like this wouldn't be able to. It will also be a lot more forgiving with the bigger tires, lift, armor, etc. One wrong move with that Kia and you're toast.

I watched a brand new stock Dodge Ram 3/4 ton diesel truck do it in June. He didn’t have a spotter but did have a passenger. You don’t need a Jeep to go on some amazing trails. I sometimes think Jeeps have a bit of an overrated reputation. Ducking and running for cover now [emoji6]

TBH it doesn't look difficult at all.
The conditions are perfect, pick the right line and you'd get any AWD vehicle up there. Add traction control and stability control and it's almost point and shoot.
I guess they won't be going back to try it when it rains. :yawn:

You would think differently if you were actually there! Easy to say from your keyboard.

LOL
I didn't say it would be easy.
But, an off the shelf suburban car made it up, without low range.
Watched it a few times, and it still doesn't look difficult.
I hope that's not the most difficult part of that trail :risas3:
I does look look fairly easy and with a solid base.....ground clearance never comes in to play.
