I had a 2wd frontier that i ripped around the desert a lot. Loved it! Then i traded it in for a 4wd frontier bc a 2wd truck SUCKS in the snow.
Most people who arent serious offroaders were always amazed where i took my 2wd frontier. Most easy trails and gnarly dirt roads just need high clearance, not so much 4wd.
That’s it! High clearance and proper tires are key to getting most places off road. We get some snow here in SoCal a few times a year so I was hoping to take my Fronty up to the mountains with some chains and maybe some sand bags in the bed.
Sand bags make a huge difference. As do chains when the roads are icy.
What tires do you have on yours? I've been looking at upgrading the tires on my 2WD model. I don't want anything really aggressive, but something better than the street tires currently on it.
I got the Falken Wildpeak AT3W they’re great tires honestly I love them. They have an aggressive look but they’re quiet on the road.
Cool, thanks. I see a lot of good reviews for those.
Where is that trail located?
It’s Lytle Creek and Cleghorn Trail in SoCal
I currently have an 08 2wd frontier that I am building out into an over lander. Don't let those 4x4 elitists get you down! haha we exist!
Definitely. A 4x4 would be awesome but I found the 2wd to be more than capable
