See, you cant throw up a pic of a muddy VX with a "dirty" girl. Then post a pic of a VX all shiny with a boat and no bikinis

"Whenever I am backing up a hill with a trailer I use 4 LO."

Not good. There may be enough slip built into the transfer case in 4 LO but I would NEVER risk using it on dry pavement (especially with the tight manuevering in backing up a boat).

thank you
so its better just to rev up the motor to get it to move than to putin low gear?

In a straight line, it would be fine to use 4 Low. The sharp turns on dry pavement is the real problem here. If you can manuveur your VX to be straight with the boat before you start backing up the hill then put it in 4 Low, it should be fine.

backing in a strait line isnt the problem. turning and backing is when it seems to get stuck . that when I have to get on it alittle just to get it to move.

thank you for your input.

We do it at work all the time with big boats and hills you have no choice. I have done it with my vx no issues. Do any of you use 4 lo when offroad on rocks ,maybe MOAB , same thing. Just don't drive down the road going 45 mph on dry pavement. shawn

I know what you are saying, but the difference is we are very light on the go pedal and the tires do chirp to slip. With some power behind it... I'm not sure what would happen and don't care to find out. But if you back up all the time in 4-low there must not be any issue. With that said, I have backed a few trailers myself and only use 4-low when the trailer just won't move. No explosions at those times, and that is when there is the most resistance. Soo...

They do the same thing when on dry pavement. shawn

Im guessing it rains tire shine and cloths and places them behind your front tires too? Thats awesome, I know where Im moving to now.

Your VX looks great.
