    Dumbass Greensboro NC drivers could get stuck in the rain. The ambulance actually slid on the ice beneath the snow into a soupy mess of a ditch. Im so proud of the taco for being able to get that behemoth of an ambulance out:bananadance:

    Awesome!!!! I pulled a full size van out of a ditch and down 2 miles down a icy road a couple of years ago. Having good tires makes all the difference. Cooper Discovery STT

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    It happens lol I got stuck in an inch of snow with my 2011 one time leaving work. Even in 4WD it wasn't going anywhere, there was just enough ice built up under the snow and the right angles under the tires that rendered it helpless. Had to get one of the guys at the shop to bring the skidsteer over to yank it out, was quite embarrassing. Tacoma almost got traded in on a Silverado that day! Haha jk..

    If your finding your self stuck in two inches of snow, let a bunch of air out of your tires.
    I'll run broken in sidewalls at 5 psi with no beadlocks. With single outer locks I'll run 3 psi.

    ive never been stuck in the snow but it does make sense to let air out!
