Hello from Colorado
Hello everyone, I just bought a 2006 4wd SR5 after moving to Colorado. I'm in the Air Force and have never lived in a state with snow until now (Georgia, Mississippi, California), hence the recent purchase. My fiance has a 2000 SR5 as well, but it is 2wd, and doesn't do well on ice.
I have really enjoyed reading all of the useful info on this site so far, thanks to everyone for contributing!

I've been here for 10 yrs. Your mud terrains will be fine in the ice and snow here.
