2WD. Don't need a 4x4 here in Fresno,Cali unless you go up to the snow/mountains, which I only do one in a blue moon and even then there is the snow chain/cable option plus better MPG's in 2WD!!!

4wd. Had quite a few from Ford's to Toyota's to Jeeps and Chevy's. All good.

I have 2 4x4's a 96 Blazer and a 94 Sonoma, up here in NY you need them. I couldn't live with out them. They are fantastic in the snow and slush. Our road here is the last to get plowed in the winter and as my driveway has a slight incline on it, its super for getting in the driveway with a foot of new snow on. I used to have a 95 2wd Blazer and it was useless off the pavement.

Some people actually use their trucks & SUV's for carrying or pulling cargo, and for hauling people as well

I somewhat agree with slick, I would not buy a truck unless it is a 4X4. However I live in Minnesota and the extra traction comes in handy some days. That being said, 98% of my driving doesn't have the front wheels engaged.

A good set of studded winter tires is all anybody needs

Though a limited slip or locking diff is a nice bonus

My old 2WD '85 S10 (with an open diff, and non-studded tires) easilly made its way through 2 - 3 feet of snow.

I've only used my 4x4 for unstucking other people [8D]
