Most car enthusiasts, commuters, and devoted fans of Eisenhower-era infrastructure are well-acquainted with a singular automotive mainstay: Roads. Roads make vehicles practical, they provide space for our cars to move from point A to point B without pesky hills, ravines, or vegetation in the way. But sometimes, the road isn’t enough. Sometimes you need to go off the road.
I’m writing this from a hotel room in Santa Barbara, California, where I’m driving the new Subaru Solterra EV . Because it’s a Subaru, that means tackling trails that other automakers fear to tread — but it’s gotten me thinking. Surely I can’t be the only one who enjoys some dirt trails in a four-wheel-drive vehicle, other Jalops must have years of stories from oaths less traveled by. What are your favorites?

My favorite off-road experience, conveniently, came in a Subaru. It was a Forester, rented with the most insurance humanly possible for the Rental Car Rally . That little crossover survived more than its fair share of abuse over those eighteen hours, but it took me somewhere I could never otherwise go — the Mojave desert, foot to the floor through winding sandy paths, desperately trying to track down a tube of cooled lava to mark a checkpoint off my map. The feeling of that car, barreling through the sand, is one I likely won’t ever forget.
That’s my favorite off-road experience, but yours may vary. Rock crawling, mudding, or simple weekend trail driving are all welcome here. Tell us your favorite stories, memories, or anecdotes from your off-road pasts, and you may find yourself in our slideshow of top answers on Monday. Just try to keep the tires facing down.
