Thanks a lot Bilal

Yaar due to Eid and a family commitment I had to leave my rig in Pindi and head to Lahore. So the I have not put the brand new 31s on as yet. I have hardly driven this 1HZ setup for fifty odd kilometers. So no highway and no off road yet. So I will not be able to answer your questions. But I will, as soon as I give it rip. In short this particular 1HZ that I have, is in a great nick. With small tires-I think these are 29 inch-it feels as it is running in low gears, honestly first gear seems to be just a formality. It easily rolls of in second without even touching the accelerator pedal.

Soon will bring her to Lahore via GT Road and then will be in a better position to discuss the driving experience, Inshallah.
