I'll take it! Seriously. Where in Colorado are you? I am a dedicated camper/back country explorer. I want to see and go everywhere I can while I still can. The gas will hurt, but it's the price I pay for the activities that give me the greatest pleasure in my life. PM me!

Sam, as I mentioned earlier, I often think about selling it, then end up finding a need for it. It's currently loaded with cardboard boxes that need to go to the recycle.

I'll be sure to let you know if I change my mind.

Zipp, I've been 4-wheeling in Utah and Colorado for years. In that time I have gotten into a few wierd spots - sometimes due to stupidity and sometime just because stuff happens. So far, I have always been able to extricate myself, and I've seen some places that most people have no idea exist. I never go some place that's too far for me to walk out of, and I always carry enough water for a small army. Plus, I take BOOKS of topographic maps and a GPS. I've found some of the best places when I'm hopelessly lost!

Like I said Sam, the sled dogs will get you in and OUT of where you want to go, plus maybe generate income. Be a guide!

Mules! They can go anywhere, and don't need snow to operate.

This is a nice 4wd road that I discovered by accident when I was trying to find a short-cut to Montrose, CO. Mules would do well on it.

I vote Silverado. Most awesome, useful, beloved vehicle I've ever owned. Bought mine used about 6 years ago for $13K. It's loaded and endlessly reliable. I drive rutted gravel roads every day - it's never let me down for a second.

Can't go wrong with a '98 4runner.
