Exclamation Offroad??

Hey,

I was thinkin, could my:

Automatic 4X2 3.0L V-6 with 30x9.5 offroad well?
or would i get stuck all the time on easy stuff...

My friend showed me some land under these powerlines that
we have been screwing around on, very easy stuff with dry conditions, and i am using the stock 225/70s in firstgear O/D off...
Am i wasting my time trying to offroad with automatic 4x2?

Dan

Offroad??

4x2's are very limited off road, especailly in mud or snow. The bigger tires sould help if they are an aggressive tread and a locker or a good limited slip would help, but still won't hold a candle to a 4x4. The good thing about a 4x2 is when it gets stuck, they're easier to pull out because they're usually not stuck as bad (from experience.) If you do try it, make sure you keep your momentum because once you stop, your done.
