True.

But has to be driven by the right person.

Quite often I come across a really souped up off road motor disabled in the desert.

Either hanging on top of a sand dune - with both sets of wheels off ground, sunk down completely in the sand - because they had the front wheel turned full lock.

Or worse having had one tire slip off the wheel because they let too much air out!

I carry a balloon, which is put under the vehicle and inflated by the exhaust, tracks, tow rope and a winch.

Ingenious. The balloon I mean. I have not heard of doing that before.

The poor stuck bastards must think you are heaven sent!

The balloon is standard equipment for many going into the desert.

Tow rope and winch too.

And I have a built in compressor, which does come in handy sometimes.
