    Hello Forum,

    I asked this question before but it's been a while and I'm hoping to get more input. What trails can I drive with my truck that are 2WD friendly? I have a:

    (2008 Pre-runner, DCSB, 4.0 auto,
    5 month old LT265/75r16 BFG A/T's,
    4 Billie 5100's with fronts at .85
    2012 TRD 2/1 leafs with Wheelers
    3-Leaf AAL w/ OEM overload leaf
    left in also. (Basically 5/1 leafs).

    The 2 locations that I have been to in Miami are NW 41st and to SW 8 ST & 137 AVE. NW 41 st is mainly flooded dirt roads (water covering the steps on the sides of my truck) & SW 8 ST is mud with rocks on the bottom (you drive about 5 MPH and you are literally bouncing in your truck. I never went to the center of the 8 st location because I hear that place is for 4x4. I've gone in fairly deep and haven't been stuck yet.

    I've Googled the following places:

    * A place known as "The Hump"in Homestead.

    * Bear Island in the Big Cypress National Preserve.

    * J.W. Corbett in West Palm Beach.

    Has anyone here with 2WD been to any of these places? If so, can a 2WD handle it? I know that there will be places that are 4WD ONLY but atleast some of it could be driven with 2WD I hope. BTW, I am not looking for mud exclusively. It can be mud or any type of scenic trails out there that I can drive through AND be able to handle light mud or flooding. Thats basically what I am looking for.

    PS. I got a real good deal on this truck so I am not going to sell it just to buy a 4WD Tacoma. I'm just looking to have the most fun with what I have.
    Thanks :)
