want to start a poll for 2wd verus 4wd

Was wondering how many 2wd versus 4wd trucks are here. Me, I'm 2wd, after last winter and wearing out my AAA card, wish I would have bought 4wd! Took me 2 months to find this truck because I wanted 2wd cc lb.

Where I live if you do not have a 4x4 you do not travel many days in the winter seasons. I have seen people not be able to get into their driveways due to the ruts in the road, and this is in the subdivision!

4x4 better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

I will be the first to tell anyone, a 2wd Diesel dually is the easiest thing to get stuck off pavement. A diesel anchor up front and no weight in the rear. I've been stuck in drought dust on level ground before.

I don't want the extra empty weight, I need all the extra capacity possible, don't have a reason to leave the pavement and it rarely snows in this region. Plus, with the bump in price, I'd rather spend that on better interior comforts.
