Actually I only wanted to have a confirmation for the appr. 80km/h as a V/Max on asphalt roads and with an empty truck.
Not a big secret that off the road the speed has to be reduced.
Would say that such LRDG truck did not speed higher than 50-60km/h when fully loaded and under best possible "sand conditions".
My Landrover 110 TdI was at his "end" at about 90kms/h when it was only loaded with some spare cans of fuel. The reason for such loss of speed is as well that you reduce the tire pressure down to 1bar if necessary...
Thanks for your support - it is always a pleasure here!
