No towing, daily driver, stuff I would use it for might be just picking up stuff at Lowes, throwing bikes in the back, mulch, etc..

I would definitely use it for bad weather and maybe some fun exploration, no "hardcore wheelin", don't really want to and can't afford to tear shit up on my daily!

I know the Toyota Tacoma Prerunners have an electric locker in the rear, which should make it useable for just off the beaten path stuff, but it would still probably suck for any more than a few inches of snow.

I'm thinking go with 4wd for the just in case advantage of having it if I need it.

Uhh... the Subaru would just look silly with a velvet interior and fuzzy headliner/dash... so I still vote for the El Camino on 100 spokes

I didn't say they were mine did I?

Why does that bother you btw, please explain. My post was a rebuttal to his comment, does that upset you?

I won't ever honk again after the last half dozen times.. and then there was the time you were getting off of I-81 onto Plantation and I'm pretty sure you did a ricer rev, ricer!

I have a 2001 Ford F150 Lariat 4 door short bed with towing package. 5.4L V8 auto. 78k miles. I am letting it go for $6500. Which is a killer deal. Blue book is $8500
