Does anyone here do it?
When I come home from this deployment I plan on getting into it a bit. I should be up for a PCS, hopefully to CA or CO.
Anyone have good suggestions on some trucks to start with? I'm looking at Samurais, Trackers, K5s, and most any Toyota or Nissan. I'm kind of thinking of sticking to a smaller 6 cylinder or possibly a 4 cylinder. Don't want to have the gas mileage of a 350sb. I don't really care to do any insane rock crawling or mudding. I just want something that'll handle well out on trails.
I want to get into it cause I think it'll be a fun way to spend time with my wife and son. She isn't really into DSMs and my boy is 2 1/2. So it's hard to tote him around in a little car. And now that my grandpa's truck (87 F-250 3/4 ton, 6.9 IDI) was handed down to me, it'll be easy to drag a trail rig around.
So...... suggestions.
