  Number one thing is get out there with what you have a find out who you are and what you really want to do. A modern stock 4x4 pickup can go a heck of a lot more places than most buyers think, especially if you take the time to both learn your truck and learn off road driving. Too many guys are watching YT videos about rigs going places they would never go and doing things they would never do and then deciding, yep, I gotta' build my truck like those guys rigs or else I won't be able to traverse a pothole. So where you actually start is with knowing yourself.

  Just go!  It's absolutely right, and it will let you know what's really necessary in your build.  A 2" lift, 33s, and some camping gear and then hit the trails.  Also a good idea to bring some friends with capable rides so you can see which setups are the most capable in certain scenarios.  Great video!

  My wife is not overly fond of camping in the wilderness so my goal in upfitting the truck is making things more comfortable for her. I added a spacious tent, permanently attached privacy enclosure, and fridge, among other things. I waited later to install stuff that I wanted like a front locker and regearing. As Braeden mentioned, all these addons are expensive. Next in line are an aftermarket front bumper and a kickass winch.

  Very good common sense video. Anyone interested in this hobby should watch this first. Amazed at how capable my 2020 DCLB 4x4 Tacoma trail limo is for what I do.

  I don&apos;t know how we ever made out before all these modern advancements. &nbsp; I carry a come along in my truck, along with several chains. &nbsp; &nbsp;I&apos;ve learned throughout my 20 some years of off roading that a second or third vehicle is the wise choice in the long run. &nbsp; My previous truck was a 93 Toyota truck with 31 X 10.50s on it. &nbsp; Best mudding truck I had and it had a 2.4 liter engine. &nbsp; &nbsp;I truly enjoy the videos yall are putting out. &nbsp; It would be interesting to see how yall wouldn&apos;t have made out in different situations without the winches and modern advancements. &nbsp; &nbsp;Casa.
