    Yeah, if he was alive today, he'd have all of the new stuff! We live in a true golden age when it comes to tools.

    Same. There’s nothing exciting off road near Madison.

    Lol, you guys and your wheeling :p:p My idea of fun is putting in an entire day covering new territory. For me 30 miles of backroads is ten times as fun as 2 miles of wheeling. Wheeling is stressful. Always on edge and inches away from doing damage and and you don't really get anywhere. I do wheel on occasion if I've been hours down a road and don't want to turn around or if I know after the wheeling section is my destination but otherwise moderate speed down rough roads giving my suspension a workout is way more enjoyable than picking the perfect line through rocks at half a mile per hour. That is the beauty of these trucks and the woods though, something for everyone :) Genuine non smartass question, those of you that wheel, how often do you find your bumpstops? No matter my vehicle and no matter the suspension (some far less than others though) I regularly find the bumpstops on my adventures.

    Can’t we do both? We usually do both in our travels.

    Oh yeah definitely can do both. Just for me personally, wheeling is like a chore, glad when it's over so I can get back to covering ground :D

    Rarely hit my bump stops unless I'm really loaded down. With the Archive Garage option 3 bump stops they are so progressive that when they do hit it's a soft engagement you can barley feel.

    Based on my experience with my 2016 tacoma.. if the manual trans hadn’t been better, it was next in line.
