    How important y'all think 4x4 is over rear wheel drive on a truck in winter? I don't go into mountains really so street snow or warm weather Pawnee trips.

    One of 2 tundra I'm big on turned out to be 2wd

    Four wheel drive is mandatory for me in a truck. It makes getting around in the snow much less of a pain and it's helped out at Pawnee more than once.

    My '05 Tundra with no weight in the back is just about not drivable in ice/snow conditions in two wheel drive. I keep six, sixty lb. bags of sand all the way back in the bed all winter. The Toyota limited slip differential doesn't seem to help much.

    Damn, thought so, hated driving my old s10 with the bigger 6 in 2wd.

    Shame as one I found was otherwise nicely appointed with a few choice aftermarket

    There are folks here (we've had the 2wd vs 4wd discussion), that believe 4wd isn't necessary and their 2wd is just as capable as my 4wd, I disagree (opinions are great aren't they) and therefore i'll never not own a 4wd.

    Got it, wouldn't budge much overall. They gave me spray in bedliner for free. My credit for a "used" truck was 2.9%/72. Got better than I expected and close to what I was hoping for on the R32. Wish they didnt armorall these things so heavily, film on my hands touching anything.

    Need to get douche bag black wheels. Only gripe is I kinda woulda prefered the graphite or whatever it was. Liked black too but bet that's awful hot. (And just too much black) I think once I have the black n chrome wheels that will balance out the whole thing.
