Off road rating system for different rigs

Having camped, had a campervan C/T & caravan over many years and I have enjoyed many trips around Aus, Europe and S.Africa.

I have recently succumbed to the aches & pains (& the missus)and upgraded to an off road caravan.


What I think would be nice is something (in a spreadsheet type format) that gives a rating of road conditions for different rigs under different conditions , say wet or dry.

Maybe EO can set this up as part of their off road conditions report. The ratings could be 1 to 10 where 1=perfect and 10 =impossible for say 4X4s, C/Ts, campervans, O/R vans and normal caravans. Make it interactive so that everybody can have some input.

My experience is that I have been to many 'no you can't go there with that' places and really had very few problems apart from the odd scratch etc but after all, that is part of travelling off road. I would however respect the opinions of many of the EO forumites especially the older ones!!!! No names Willem LOL.

An example I came across last night in a 4X4 treks magazine was in some national parks they listed campsites that you camp at with tents, C/Ts and off road caravans. Well that told me that I could get a O/R caravan in there. Nothing about any of the other roads about the place. (Note this is just a basic example).

I know experience plays a part in this but people have to decide for themselves on that.

What do you think?
