I am buying a new truck and Northstar pop up camper, and wondering if people really use their 4x4 option? I would like to do some off road boon docking but not sure if I really need the 4 wheel drive, it would be nice but added weight and cost.
Thanks, Brad |

Keep in mind that 4 wheel drive lowers the load capacity your truck is safely capable of... always.
I have it but rarely use it. I prefer manual hubs and manual transfer case myself. |
