    Yeah...
    3 ton trucks don't skip over soft spots like that, lol. They tend to dig in like a determined terrier

    I think as long as you are smart and courteous we have little impact on the roads. That doesn't mean ol' Monster sticker in the back window with his duramax with 37s can't do damage. If you're trying to go fishing in a remote area your treads can be damn near leave-no-trace even during mud season. I've found many of the primary logging roads to be in better shape than many town roads this time of year.

    For sure. Like I said, you had to pick your line carefully to avoid rutting it up. :thumbsup:

    I almost prefer that; idiots have a harder time damaging a road that way, lol. You just need to remember to roll your windows up before you come to a stop.

    People don't understand that just because I own a truck, I am just as annoyed by brodozers as much as them in their prius :D

    True, but ut clogs the air filter in my Tacoma like no ones business since i don't have fender liners anymore. Last year was soupy up there though. Bad enough they didn't open the trails for memorial day weekend

    Possibly, still trying to figure stuff out since 37s will require more wheel well modification

    Have you ever had a Prius as an uber or taxi? I think they are designed well for 4 adults to fit in the car.

    My in laws had one. They're nice cars, I don't want one myself (because there are a ton of just as reliable, just as good hybrid cars....Also the lexus CT200h is the "luxury" line of the prius, those are niiiiiice). Plenty of room plus a hatch, the engine is so small and the batteries are underneath the floor pan rather than a big ol' V6 up front. Plus the electric motors, those things can boogy off the line!

    My truck still has p-rated snow tires from when I bought it, so may as well get use from them prior to getting rid of them.

    My snowblower is still out only because, once I make the switch it means I have to start mowing the lawn. Wife's snow tires have been off for a little over a month now though.

    Yup, snowblower is away, tractor one is off and stored and the push box is stuck in the back of the container. It'll melt!

    I mowed mine 2 weeks ago and it needs it again - or at least could use it again, doesn't necessarily need it.
