    A slew of pricey stuff my wife hates me for.
    If new truck parts are gay, consider me the anal-raping butt pirate of Penzance!

    And there it is... Step on out of the closet Billy.

    ok...
    If Pugga gets to brag on his Furd, I get to brag on my Durdge

    I thought that the "1st gear/low range" combo in my '99 Tacoma TRD was low & slow.
    I just was shoving some snowbanks back with the Yeti (our nickname for the '84 Dodge plow truck we just picked up) in 4-hi and for gits and shiggles I dropped it into low range. I swear to god, that "low range/low gear" combo was the slowest I've ever gone in anything that has a motor. It didn't even tickle the needle on the speedometer.
    No wonder rock crawlers love the NP435 trannies. I've even got 3:55 gears in my axles. I can't even imagine how slow she'd go with some 4:10's, let alone some rock gears.

    I was just got home. Didn't think it was that bad, slow and steady in the middle lane and didn't have any problems

    Fair enough. Thanks for the heads up.

    Stay safe for those of you that are out there.

    x2, I didn't think it was bad at all. I didn't even touch 4wd the whole way home. I was surprised to see how much snow was on the ground when I got home.
    You'll be fine, the amateurs will be off the road by then.

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    I had at least 4" of snow on the ground when I got home at 6. People were driving so slow. I was doing 10-12 in a 40.

    Got about 6 inches of the angel puke here..driving is okay though, I took Linda's Rav4 4wd to the store and only slowdown was when I was behind a town plow truck.

    Frustrating. Once I hit the real snow I just cruised along in the middle lane of 495 at 50-55. Snow was nice and light, no 4wd needed. Around 3-4" here when I got home around 745

    I just blew off the driveway, there's a good 6 inches out there now I'd say. It's really light and fluffy. The snow stopped while I was out there so I'm guessing there's another wave coming. Turns out I'm right on the 7-10 and the 10-14 line.
