Newbie Introduction
Hey all - great website and forums! Definitely a ton of great information on here!
I've been into cars for as long as I can remember, up until now I've only had one truck, I have mostly had sports cars however I am thinking of building up a truck. Not afraid to get in and get dirty. I've rebuilt a 4A-GE from a Mk1 MR2, restored an 89 BMW 325is from junk car that sat in a field and had a ton of different "fun" cars from a C4 Corvette, Audi A4, couple BMWs, two MR2s, and even a couple motorcycles thrown in there. My current daily drive now is an STS2 prepped 91 Miata
I had a ZR2 S10 back in 2000 and really enjoyed doing some trail driving with it. I have since moved to NC and would like to get back into offroading. The main terrain I am looking to drive are the beaches, and some trails. No rock crawling or anything like that.
I've been reading up a lot and I really like the desert "prerunner" style of truck, however they seem to be all 2wd. I am torn whether or not to build up something 2wd or get something 4wd....With a proper set up I figure the 2wd truck should do alright in the sand and beaches.
I am sure I'll be around asking lots of questions and reading up as much as possible!
Couple pictures of my previous rides.

Welcome to YotaTech!
Sounds like you have a good background and a good platform to start on!
You'll find all the info you need and then some here.
If you haven't already, take a minute and read through the rules.
Remember the "Search" feature above, that is your instant gateway to the vast amount of knowledge that our members have been put their blood, swet and tears into for the past 6+ years.
Bottomline.
