I don't much worse than a 2wd 4.0. I average 18MPG with 4.10 gears, 31" tires and a 4.0. I don't wheel that much anymore but I'd never buy a 2wd truck. Also this is not a 2wd vs 4wd debate. The fact is that a 2wd is better at high speed wheeling than anything else and a 4wd truck will get you anywhere the 2wd can't but they suck for high speed unless you have the green for a 4wd LT kit. As I said before a well built 2wd truck will get you far but not as far as a 4wd truck.

Oh and we have a land line. No much cell signal at home and we have an alarm that needs a land line.

Well no I would wheel if I had a better truck. But when I go to Glamis or Pismo I want 4wd. Sure a 2wd can make it in the sand floored the whole time but they do get stuck even if your careful.

Good for your buddy. No load in or a small load in it right? Its different when you are towing or you have a big load in the bed. My buddy swears that 4wd is a waste yet it took up an hour and 45 minutes to get to camp because his 2wd F150 kept getting stuck even after we took the trailer off of it.

oh and ya i'd never buy a 2wd.. just wasting my money imo.. but thats just me. but it didnt stop me from wheeling my 97 dakota when i had it, it was 2wd, sucked in the winter though.

I rock crawl like a mother****er
I go mudding
Climb steep inclines
Negotiate treacherous, tight terrain
And I really have to know the size of my "rig" for some of the tight trails
Also been known to do some hardcore water crossings
my 2wd > you
please let some bodylifted 4wd people quote this and talk ****, the same people who wax their trucks and armorall their tires and then go find a little rock or hill to drive and and show their mad suspension flex to their internet friends like to talk a lot of **** about how hardcore they are.

Big Bear, Mt. High and Mt. Baldy have snow and are close to me. Also just because I live near the dessert doesn't mean there aren't 4wd only trails around me. See when you experience rear offroading then you will know why 4wd is important. One example is Azusa Canyon. 2wd trucks are not allowed in there for the fact that the state knows 2wd trucks will get stuck.

Others may have gone in the past but since 08 they have been really strict. They make you lock it in and they check under to see if everything is functioning. They don't just look for stickers like when I first started going.
