Where i go to school 4 wheel drive is basically required to get anywhere in
the winter. If i had a 2wd dak it would sit in the parking lot all winter
because it couldnt make it out of the space. The day I picked up my dak i
needed to use 4wd to get up the hill at the dealership which was covered
with snow. I do also use it on trails but that was just an added bonus the
real reason for a 4x4 in my case is SNOW i like to see some of you guys with
2wd driving around with 2 inches of ice with another 6 inches of snow on
top of that you wouldnt get anywhere.
4x4s RULE
