My pickup WAS my DD, 55+ miles to work, and of course home, each day.
Bad weather, it was the 4Runner. My access road was a clay called colichi. When it got wet, it turned into greased ice. Bad weather in Yuma can be BAD too, although rare. VERY rare. Creeks flooded across roads, and the Runner's clearance helped a lot. Of course, it let me carry my kids around, too. Kinda handy
Now, since we moved to Oregon (thank goodness!!), we drive the pickup in the summer, and the Runner in the winter. It works great in the snow. The pickup just doesn't have enough, ok, any, ground clearance. It's 2WD as well, so not good in snow at all. The kids are grown and gone, now, so they're no longer a consideration.
That's my trucks. I've had them for 30 years+ and they just keep on going. Better than the Energizer bunny!
