    4x4 or 4x2 has no bearing on whether your vehicle can cope with potholes and rocks in the road... only whether your vehicle can dig its way easily out of mud (and that is dependent on tires, too... my Crosswind has served me very well on muddy trails)

    i agree with niky. having a 4wd is not a guarantee on muddy trail.....ask the 4x4ph and suzuki off-roaders club peeps.

    That said... having driven front wheels is always a good asset if you have to "dig" or "rock" your way out of a mud pit... though having a working winch is an even greater asset.

    true, having a winch is the best investment on a off-road vehicle..pero car-designs nowadays doesn't permit easy installation of such devices unless palitan mo ng ironman/ARB solid steel front bumpers...

    basta alam mo lang mag- "rocking" and "logic" di ka ma-sstuck sa muddy road.

    Yup. The biggest off-road weapon: the nut behind the wheel. ;)
