    I love getting ridiculous gas mileage with my 2X4...but I definitely would have sprung for the 4X4 if it was in the budget. I figure I would only really NEED a 4X4 once or twice a year in the winter. Otherwise I have access to a 4X4 F150 if I need to go somewhere in a blizzard. I can't wait to see how well my Taco handles in the snow actually. :D I might be impressed...

    4x4. I might never need it, but I had already decided that I wasn't buying a Tacoma without it.

    I'm sure it will be better than a 300 HP/ 350 TQ V8 truck in 2wd...which I normally drive in the snow. :D I don't like to use 4wd unless it's necessary, because 2wd is too much fun!
