yesterday I went to a restaurant on the top of a mountain that the only way to get there is in a 4x4 cause its a very steep hill full of rocks, and being myself I thought I could make it in 2wd lol... I had to turn back halfway cause I was going up very slowly and the engine was starting to get HOT

here's some pictures and a video link (it has like a 20 to 25 degree angle uphill)
