    Got my Taco back in March when stuff started closing down. I really want to take it somewhere in the dirt and mess around with 4WD and what not. I was thinking of going to Corral Canyon and trying out some trails but was wondering what a stock OR 4x4 can do out there.

    I took mine there and it did fine on the main trail. I was with two other stock Tacoma’s (one SR5 and one OR4x4) Just be careful because there are a lot of atvs and dirt bikes in the area. You can make a day of it for sure.

    yes, in a good way. although I'm not a fan of pinstripes, and hate paying to get them buffed out :mad:

    When you go hit me up if you want another truck along

    From the looking around I did the longest trail, ~13 miles, is the easy rated one and looks like damn near anything can do it. I am still planning on going but we just got a house so dealing with all that for now then will have some free time before the move.

    Many portions of trails are easy or moderate and are fine for a stock Tacoma. You'll probably want to avoid Sidewinder and Bronco Peak but there's plenty of other trails and roads to drive on. No pass of any kind is required to drive on the trails but is good to have if you park the truck for a while (Forest Adventure Pass, National Park Pass, probably a couple other types that suffice). I've seen Park Rangers leave tickets on parked vehicle with no pass.
