My 2wd dually can go on trails no problem as far as size fitting. It's still a 2wd so have to be careful, but yet to find a mountain trail that is to narrow.

I'm sure the guys on the Toyota forums will approve of trading your stinky diesel for a 90 hp beast

You're gonna love your 'yota.
I have an '88 with over 436,000kms on it
Good little commuter trucks. Run forever.

Not the fastest trucks in the world though.

yea the yota wont get quite as good mileage but it isnt about that , it is such a pain parking my dodge in a parking lot filled with hundreds of cars , and the yota is EASY , like i dont even have to try .... and i am gonna offroad it quite a bit in trails
