You can sit 4 people with comfort and still have lots of packing space. In the boot I have a spare wheel, 2 jacks, tyre pump, jerry can, water, small camping chairs, 2 Fire Extinguishers, enough spanners and other tools to be able to strip and rebuild any part of the Kubel, a braai grid, blitz and other odds and sodds (you get the picture). Then I still had the Dog Box which was empty.
Steering the front wheels has an effect and the LSD let me get up a dune where I know a buggy would have spun a wheel out. You can travel slower and depend on your torque instead of trying to glide over the soft sand at speed. I were running 195-80-14s 8ply with a 2 bar in the back and front for most of the time. It was only when the sand got really bad that I dropped the rears to 1bar.
You even have a large grab handle on the dash for the passenger to hold onto.
I would have liked a bit more power as its about 400kg heavier than a buggy but once I got use to driving the torque it was OK.
No bunnies or trees were hurt and I only drove where I were allowed to. I Promise.
(If it's the same spot that is). Went with the Syncro last time. What a jol!
