    My wife & I are headed to Ouray/Telluride Co. this summer to run Jeep trails, including Blackbear Pass. Do I need to install rock sliders or not?

    I've driven it in a Jeep, and no a Tacoma would not need sliders. Some of the switchbacks are short and tight to say the least, but just take your time and make multiple turns. A spotter is helpful in places, and my only advice is don't go at all if it looks like it might rain. Enjoy the area as it's beautiful!

    Like, so many.
    You ever seen those videos where folks get caught in the rain?

    Yes, and crazy! Unfortunately it likes to rain in the area in the afternoons. Go early! :D
