Re: What do u like beter 2wd OR 4wd Truck?
for where i live..... 2wd... live in the city, and it barley snows here... so 4wd is rarely needed..
that said... im taking all the 4wd crap out of my blazer and shoving it in my ranger... for a winter beater...

Re: What do u like beter 2wd OR 4wd Truck?
2wd = less moving parts to wear out/break.....

Re: What do u like beter 2wd OR 4wd Truck?
I vote 4x4. A 4x4 can go everywhere a 2x4 can go, but a 2x4 can't go everywhere a 4x4 can.

Re: What do u like beter 2wd OR 4wd Truck?
I am a practical man. I always bring a tougher or stronger or bigger tool to a given job than I need. I don't want to be in a situation where I need more than I have on hand. Mabey it's overkill mabey not, but it works for me.

Re: What do u like beter 2wd OR 4wd Truck?
Personally I dont really care. But I love 4x4's. Mud, rocks, whatever. Either way I can go anywhere. I would never own a IFS 4x4 though. They are utterly retarded.

Re: What do u like beter 2wd OR 4wd Truck?
Where I am 2wd sucks. The roads are so cracked and potholed a 2wd will bottom out and get trashed. Not saying a 4wd is better, but with bigger tires it goes over stuff much easier. Plus where I live and mom's house is on a hill, I tried a 2wd, works but not all the time.
I did the lowered 2wd thing, I do like them, but not a fan of the slammed to the ground with the biggest wheels known to man under it. IMO it looks retarded, but to each his own. I prefer a lifted 4wd. Then when your 2wd get stuck on that speed bump, I can pull you over it.....lol
