Had the truck in the front field this AM. No, the TC wasn’t on it. Glad I could put my DRW in 4x4 to finish the turn around on the snow. Later, I drove up to my trailers just up a bit from my upper shed. Again, glad I could put it in 4x4. Might have made it without 4x4, but probably would have torn up my field turning around and torn up the road getting up to the trailers.
Point is that most of us done’t always have our TC on our trucks. Now, if I was as gifted as a couple of people here, I wouldn’t need 4x4. But, I’m glad I have it. :D
Back in the mid '60s I lived/worked on a great-grandparents farm. The farm pickups where a '50 Chevy, (Brother is restoring), '55 Ford, then the 3/4 ton '54 GMC I bought. If the ground was wet, and we needed to get off the gravel, we walked. (Or my bicycle) If we needed to haul something we used a tractor. (also 4X2) The farm has passed into friendly hands, I have seen the damage done to that farm done by 4X4.
