4WD vs. Chains

I still can't decide if I should get 4WD or a Prerunner. I am trying to think of scenarios where I would need 4WD. What is the comparison between chains and 4WD? I would go up to the mountain to snowboard...thats probably it...not go off roading in snow or anything like that.

 

If you are going to the be in the snow several times a year, I would go with the 4X4. I went with the Prerunner because I didn't think I would ever have it in the snow, well twice in the last couple of years I had to turn back trailing due to snow
If I was to do it again I would go 4X.

GET. 4. W. D.

 

4WD = Confidence, Safety, Good Insurance.

 

apples and oranges my friend, 4wd is for your safety as well, and is on at the push of a button. chains means stopping to chain up and chain down...

 

4x4! So worth it.

 

just go ahead and get the 4x4 or u will regret it later for sure

 

If your asking, then that probably means you may need it. Go for it . 4WD ftmfw!

 

4x4

 

yea im not one for 2wd trucks

 

Aside from what eveyone else has said..... I'd get the 4WD.

However, If money is an issue and you don't or can't afford the extra cost of the 4WD, then atleast get the Prerunner TRD Offroad (with the locker).

 

4WD so worth it even if used only a couple times a year!

 

If money is enough of an issue having to choose between 4x4 and 4x2, person probably shouldn't be buying a new truck.

4x4. Although I don't use it that often, when I do use it I am happy to have it. It is better to have the option that to just be stuck.

 

4x4, don't know when you need it, then you got it !!!

 

2wd are not real trucks

 

There is nothing I hate more than chaining up on the side of interstate 80, in a snow storm, in the dark watching people in 4WD pass me. That said I only did it once in a friends car because I always have owned 4WD.

 

4wd. Bring chains in the mountains as a precaution.

 

I have 4wd and chains. its a sick combo. when NO ONE else can make it. I can.
