I've always considered it an unwritten rule of 4-wheeling to drive your rig to the trail.

If I was just going to trailer something I'd get quads or bikes which are WAY more capable off-highway than a trooper or jeep, and take up less garage space.
Must be a personal rule because I have never heard of this. And as far as a quad or a bike being more capable, clearly you don't play in the rocks, unless your one of those incredible bike balancing, hop up and down climb like a goat kind of bike rider. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

If you are happy with your vehicle the way it is. It works good both on and off road, I'm really not sure why you are even making this decision, unless you have plans to take your rig a whole lot further. In which case 5k isn't going to get you a lot of tow rig and have any money left to build up to where you'd need the tow rig.

I agree that is it nice to drive to and on the trails and then back home. But it is also nice to beat the snot out of it then limp it to the trailer for the ride home. I have both kinds of off road vehicles and a tow rig. I guess the preference would be for the mood I'm in when I wake up. Note" having the drive to the trails rig is inspiring me to work some more on the more capable one. I guess I'm getting the itch again. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
