We have been mulling over buying a pretty cheap truck 3-5,000. We don't expect perfection mind you. But we want something to pull a boat next spring and summer as well as a club cab haul around the kids vehicle ect. We do get snow but I can't use that as an excuse to buy a 4x4. The last snow storm we had I had an older beater 92 f150 and it got me home in 13 inches of snow with no weight in the back. Granted it was more driving ability than anything else and there were times I was on it sideways to make it up hills the darn thing made it home. And it made it when a ton of 4x4's were stuck. I can get a decent road worthy truck for the price in 2wd 4x4 makes it a bit harder.
So I'm considering searching out a half ton club cab and just installing a locker of sorts. I've never had a locker so I don't know personally how beneficial they are. What's your thoughts? My fear is getting stuck on a slick boat ramp or something like that.
