Robert Pepper’s 4WD Handbook 2/e

$44.99

In this second edition of the bestselling 4WD Handbook, four-wheel drive expert and author Robert Pepper provides an in-depth explanation of how 4WDs work. He shares practical techniques for hill-driving, sand-driving, water crossings, as well as driving in mud, snow and sand.

In this revised second edition, Pepper includes techniques, photographs and technology from the very latest vehicles. This second edition also includes new chapters regarding off-road towing, choosing a vehicle and driving unfamiliar vehicles.

This guide also provides comprehensive explanations of how to get yourself out of trouble — always a possibility when exploring challenging terrain — with detailed chapters regarding recovery techniques.

The 4WD Handbook is probably the most comprehensive guide of its kind in the world. Here’s what industry experts have to say:

“This book is a must for everyone, from someone who is thinking about buying their first four wheel drive to the experienced four wheel drive instructor.” — 4WD Victoria, Trackwatch magazine

Just finished reading The 4WD Handbook.  In my opinion, this is the best off-road book I have read and I will be recommending it to all my clients. The common-sense approach to everything is brilliant.“ — Trailmasters International

“ It was like having a 4WD refresher course without having to go off-road or even sit in a vehicle.” – Phil Hanson, 4WD Newz
