I’ve been thinking about selling the Camaro and buying a Tacoma for that very same reason. My SxS is fine, but when you hunt 6 properties that total all 18,000+ acres and each is 20-30 minutes apart or up to an hour farthest to farthest, loading and unloading a SxS gets annoying.

We walk. I have never hunted many what i would call large properties though. One of the bigger places i have hunted they use truck/sxs's. All our stands are within a 15-20 min walk and we typically enjoy the walk.

So...what was that full-door UTV you posted in the west Texas snow thread. Seriously, I was gonna asks yous about that. The War Dept. wants her own rig, for when I'm out in the pasture and The Angel (my name for her, not the wife's) granddaughter wants her to take her for a ride. At first, I thought it was the wine at lunch talking, but, apparently, she's as serious as a heart attack.

Gotta say, my old pickup, a 2011 chevy z71 was much quieter than any side by side or 4 wheeler that i have ever been around. Ive driven my wifes ford escape to the blind to drop her off a few times when it is raining. Gotta love sand, when it rains its better to drive on.

Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.

I don’t just “get around” in my rigs. Hunting and being in charge of two large leases which have almost 40 community property stands/feeders means I get to do a lot of the maintenance on the equipment. My rigs are more “lease works trucks” and are designed as such. Always remote and sometimes alone I need to be prepared so some features allow me to cheat a little. My original black Tundra I wore completely out with all the extra weight and rough roads but it served me 10 years. I retired it by making it into a tower for a stand. It still runs but it’s first season this year they killed a 170 and a 161 so it’s likely not moving. Next generation I went to a badly needed one ton(Chevy). Rigged out much more and really serving it’s purpose. The old little Toyota will never die and it’s usually reserved as a muddy day truck and as a backup/loaner. It does get in on the work sometimes. I know another long post but I can’t say things in short words like HUD.
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations. RWH
