    Yeah, to be honest, I've only taken my truck up something a 2wd wouldn't make it like 3 times lol. And who knows, a locked prerunner with good tires might have made it up as well.

    Well, maybe so, but I definitely wouldn't try wet and muddy, and technically if I had off-road it'd be 4x4. (not sure if it's different in Canada Land)

    Low Range is much more important for off roading than 4x4.. With 2WD and proper gearing, you'd be surprised how far you can go..

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    It's not from being a 4x4, it's because you have a non-functional hood scoop.

    3 Wheel drive, the LSD will lock when it starts losing traction.

    The OR models don't have a front locker either so they are essentially 3 wheel drive as well (not counting A-TRAC on the new models). Only difference is they can force their rear diff to lock up when it wants. LSD has to rely on the mechanism to work properly for the situation.

    I've never been somewhere I couldn't get through because of my LSD - and I wheel hard (ask anyone here who's gone with me haha). Yea, sometimes I gotta back up and hit the rock face with a little more momentum than the locked guys, but I still make it through.

    80? with accumulated snow on the road? BS..moving along is only part of the battle. there is also steering and stopping. you my friend are a menace.

    i drive in snow all the time..slow and steady wins the race :) plus i dont want to kill anyone (else).

    I think that was a complete victory! So the light got fucked up...thats the chance you take when you wheel...so to call this a fail of any kind is ridiculous! Sometimes that shit just happens...:cool:

    Obviously the OP doesn't wheel :laugh:

    anyone can make it to the other side too if there was no concern about damages to the truck.

    So props to the driver in video for not concerning about damages to his truck? Sure I guess... ;)
