According to the IIHS, you are about twice as likely to die in a 4x2 Taco as in a 4x4 one. The 4x2 Taco's rollover risk is actually higher, despite all the 5-lugger street trucks in the category.: http://www.iihs.org/externaldata/srdata/docs/sr4605.pdf

 

I had my 2WD up in the AZ mountains after a good snow. The firestone Destination ATs and the weight of my camper shell got me through fine. The great MPG(27 HWY) is my daily reward. If I get more serious about off road'n or deeper snow, I can back myself up with chains or a winch.

 

Here's my experience a year and a half ago: http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/2nd-gen-tacomas/65908-i-am-prerunner.html

Still feel the same. Need 4X4? Clearly I do not. Want 4X4 next truck? Sure.

 

Although I've only had it for a month, I don't regret not getting a 4x4. I drove a 97 4x4 v6 m/t for a year and used 4wd twice and it wasn't necessary.

 

That doesn't make any sense.

 

I still LIKE STICKERZ.....STICKERZ STICKERZ STICKERZ hehehehehe

 

why not? the weight of everything 4wd centered low would keep you planted longer.

 

F-34...

 

That weight is marginal at best. Besides the 4x4's sit up higher than any of the 5 lugs, which means they have a higher center of gravity to begin with.

 

HELL NO

Whats to regret? No snow here, I don't see any joy in rock climbing anymore especially with a truck as large as the 2nd gen Tacoma....

Any dirt roads I happen upon can be easily navigated with a 2WD. Grew up in snow country and never owned a 4WD while there. If it was that bad I stayed home. Last 4WD Taco I had was when I lived in Nevada in the 80's and there were some fun off roading trips and blizzard ski trips to Brain Head.

It's not a "hobby" for me. Just another reliable vehicle in the stable to carry small dirty crap around.

 

If you live in snow country you will regret not having 4x4
