    i got your small 4x4. try a jeep diesel on for size with tank treads for tires. i have yanked a garage down with the thing.

    only took me 3 hours to get home from work last night. wasnt that i had a problem jsut the folks with grocery getters, getting stuck and in my way. I wonder what they think when i pass them effortlessly?

    That sounds like a snow machine, I had a wrangler for a couple of years would still love to have it for this job. come to think of it I didnt want to get rid of it, but three kids and a wife will not fit in a wrangler. oh well, everyone will fit in a suburban. :)

    it certainly gets the job done. i dont worry about not being able to get some place. its more like a road tractor. i get odd stares when i am at the pump. people asking me if theres something wrong with the engine all the time. ill get a bigger stove and start using the heating oil for fuel. get the oil man to think wood heat doesnt cut it. hahaha

    Yes that would do the job! I had a 2 door 4-runner for years that would have been perfect as well. Small tractor getherdone to!

    Jay, that all sounds like a good time. Wish I could help but I'll be thinking of you guys having all that fun. Hopefully the snow will hold off. Not sure as I see 2-4" called for us but would not be surprised it we get nothing from it.
