    Stock these trucks will go just about anywhere, after you have had it for a bit you will have a better idea of the type of suspension you want.
    good luck with buying!

    Welcome fellow hunter. I would say depends on your needs but a shell might be good for hunting. I’ve been running without one and at times wish I had a hard or soft shell just to throw gear back there and be protected from the elements. When I head out with couple guys sometimes we go in one truck and it can be a hassle with the room.
