    Long travel equals more articulation of your suspension. It costs a pretty penny. Next step after long travel is rock crawling. Did this clear it up?

    I tried this lol. Now my hope is to convince her she wants a Off road 4Runner instead of a highlander. I'm losing that one too.

    Some advice, do not buy those step bars. They will snag on everything when off-roading. Yes they are nice to get in and out of your truck but terrible for off-road.

    Pretty simple to decide actually. If you plan on wheeling in either or these two scenarios. Trade it for a 4x

    Yes do not put those step bars on ur truck or the factory predator bars. They will get you stuck or break off.
