Both of my 1 ton trucks are 4x4 and I couldn't get by without it.

I work in an office, live in a city, rarely tow anything, but I use the bed of my truck a lot. It's not lifted with big tires or anything, just a stock F150.

I have no use for the seating capacity of an SUV, and don't like driving cars. It feel like I'm sitting on the floor.

It would be quite inconvenient to me to not have a truck, although I'd probably be fine with a Tacoma or something at this point. I needed the seating room when the 2 kids were younger.

Sounds like I found the insecure little man. I don't define my masculinity by what I drive so I'm very comfortable in my used Audi and Accord.

What kind of man doesn’t need a 4x4? You launch your boat with a 2WD? That’s gonna backfire one day.

Come on, just stop. You all live in a gated subdivision on your .25 acre plot of land with an HOA and a community pool, just like me. You're not hauling hay bales or moving cattle or pouring concrete every day. You're in a cubicle, working on spreadsheets for accounts receiving.


I'm this guy.

Except for the cubicle and accounting shite, I have a office by God.

BUT, the things I do on the weekends and vacations DEFINITELY place me in situations where I use my 4x4. I was at a mountain bike race at a ranch in Texas and it was super muddy. Everyone was parked in a pasture. A ton of people got stuck. I pulled at least 20 cars and trucks out with my 4x4 Blazer.

I do a lot of kayak camping and fishing. The small ponds and river access points are often times through terrain that a 2x4 would get stuck.

I've used it to pull a dead tree out of myyard with it.

It sounds to me like you live a boring, pussified life, with your only pastime being running through your neighborhood in too short shorts coveting your neighbor's trucks....

Do you think the NY plates on this big block means it's rusty?

I have 2 4x4s and an AWD currently. It's because of my penis.

Many baws think they can tow more with a 4x4 but the opposite is true

You ever get stuck on wet grass? Happened to me quite a bit with a 2wd. Frick that.

Plus when it's raining I push her in 4 auto and now I have "AWD". Not afraid to pull out on a wet street and give it some juice.

Yes. You’ll always need it at some point, and resale value is better.

4auto in the rain is the shite

Always loved the el camino. So I bought a Hyundai Santa Cruz. 4 door car with a 4 ft truck bed. Awd, solid towing capacity and looks pretty damn cool to boot.

You can’t be a baw if you don’t have a 4x4

Looked at buying one used once. My mechanic told me that if you don't use it regularly its a waste of money. Maintenance, shorter tire life and shitty ride. I passed on it
