Hello,
I live on Cape Cod in MA. You can't get much off-road 4wd fun-time here. You go off the pavement and poof you are on private property.
I'm about to take the plunge and go full-timing, mostly out west. I need to replace my current car (Prius) with a 4-wheel down towable car.
My question: is it worth paying more for a 4wd car (that gets <20mpg) to go off-road elsewhere in the US. If the opportunities to go off-road are still slim, I could just rent a jeep now and then. Might have just answered my own question! Can people mention here where they have fun off-roading the most?
My original thought was to buy a used Honda Fit which is <$20k new and gets >30mpg and can be towed all 4 wheels down. Anyone tow one of these?
Thanks,
Eric
