Talking Should he have opted for the 4x4?

I have been horse trading with my neighbor; and this was the only thing available to pull the boat out of the barn for some pictures.

I had a tough time getting traction on the gravel when backing it into the barn. What do you think? I'll bet he could make it to LOTO and back, in the rain; with the cruise control set.

He could do at least 90 on the highway with that thing.

As long as he had the 16ply tires, NOT the 8 ply. And he'd have to upgrade to the bigger brakes if he wants to run the 22" Alcoas.

Just put airbags on the rear, it'll do just fine.

As long as you're not going far and you're really careful...
