Performance 4×4

Making The Most Of Your Performance 4×4

Sometimes you see those guys driving beautiful, powerful, rugged performance 4x4s and never really making the most of them. They park it in the drive way, wax it twice a week and then just drive it around town. If you ask them to help you move, they tell you that they don’t want to scratch the bed of their truck by actually putting something in it or dirty up their SUV by using it as intended.

If you own a 4×4, even a luxury 4×4 vehicle, then you should know that it’s nuts to have one of these vehicles and not try to get the most of it. Having a high performance 4×4 that you only take around town and go grocery shopping with is like having a high def television set with surround sound that you only watch Nick at Nite reruns on.

Getting your money’s worth out of your4×4

Get a Bed Liner/Trailer

If you’re driving an SUV, get a trailer for hauling. If you’re getting a truck, you might want to look into getting a bed liner, or just carry those scratches as proud battle scars. The bottom line is that you should always be moving stuff around with your 4×4 or why buy a 4×4 in the first place? If you don’t want to use a performance 4×4 for hauling, even one of the wide range of modern luxury 4×4 vehicles, you may as well just get a compact car.

Get your Performance 4×4 Dirty

Take it out in the woods, take it mudding, take it somewhere where you’re going to actually need all that muscle it’s packing under the hood. A heavy duty 4×4 is at its best when climbing uphill on some muddy field after a week long hunting trip. Bottom line: it’s a man’s vehicle, so drive it like a man.

Work Construction

Even if you’ve got a successful career going already, do some construction work, or at least help out a couple of your buddies with their projects. If you really want to put your wheels to the test, build a cabin. You can find a cheap piece of land and build with the trees already on the property, and going in on a project like that with a few buddies is a heck of a great way to get out of the house, put your 4×4 to the test and have something to show for it when all’s said and done.

Hunt, Fish and Camp Out

…As often as possible. Any time you get an opportunity, take that 4 x 4 outdoors and get it muddy, get your hands dirty and enjoy all that the outdoors have to offer.

Of course, the reality here is that, if you own a 4×4 and you like to do more with it than make your driveway look really pretty, then we don’t really need to give you an excuse to throw stuff in the back of your truck or in your trailer and go cruising across fields of mud and dirt. Get out there and enjoy your 4×4.
