    Nice trucks Sir.
    This is why I my self and most others got a Prerunner. It's a lot more fun off-roading at 50mph than crawling at 1mph. :burnrubber:

    Looking at your truck I don't doubt it all at...

    4WD is for CRAWLING..one rock at a time in LO...........Been there done that. NOT fun...Pretty much most things that do not require a slow crawl can be handled with a 2WD with a locker. Those front two drive wheels are nice but not needed most of the time on most terrain.

    Love my Pre-Runner. We all got a Prerunner for a reason and they fix up just nice!

    1. Cheaper by 2.5-3K MSRP
    2. Cheaper by Insurance
    3. Less Maintenance
    4. Better Lift (SPINDLES)
    5. LT Friendly

    I've owned my Taco for 3.5 years now and I've only wished to have a 4x4 3 times in my time of fun. I was able to get out twice with my "LOCKER" option and once just stuck. However, twice I had those crappy Nitto Terra Grapplers and now with my set up, I'm pretty happy with it.

    Plus I don't do too much wheeling that involves climbing or better yet, I hardly go out anymore now. LOL.

    I'd rather go fast also than rock climb. Not my cup of tea. After a nice rock dented in my front bumper, scratched my flare, scrapped my rim, and made love to my slider. I'm over that shit really. Off-Roading is expensive and be prepared to fix shit as I've been through that already. Repainting a truck is no fun.
