A couple of quick questions about the maximum gradients on the official LR3 specs[1]
1. The ascent/descent gradients are list as 35°/35° "continuous" and 45°/45° "drive through." I guess I read this as "the max is 35° if you're going to be going ascending/descending for more than a 'little bit', 45° otherwise." Is there a better definition of "continuous" and "drive through"
2. The side slope max gradient is listed as 35° continuous. When I did the off-road course at the dealership I swear the salesman told me it was 45°, and I'm pretty sure he told me the side slope we did on the course was 37° or 38°. What is accurate?
