    x2 I have a 4x2 and yes it does everything I need it to do. thats why I got the 4x2 and not a 4x4. however if i lived where there was lots of snow all the time and or mountains I would have gotten a 4x4 to be on the safe side.

    It's mostly personal preference...I have a Prerunner, I'd rather a 4x4.

    I have it somewhere. It wasnt stuck. If you look closely, you can see the first set of tracks in the sand in which I made my first climb. The guy that took the pic wanted me to do it again, so the pic could be taken. I belive, I was in second gear, right on the RPM limiter in 4 hi going about 5 mph. :)

    Well the main thing is its all opinion and I think a person buying what they want/need is the best option for that person. For me it was 4x4 because I wheel and I pre run till I get stuck and I have been stuck in 2wd every trip I have gone out on and 4wd has saved my ass. But I dont think pre runners are a bad truck just not for me.
