I have a new 06 DC TRD with LSD. I am just curious what trails others have done in their stock Tundras up here. Trails like
TinCup Pass/St Elmo
Engineer Pass
Imogene Pass
Mt Antero (I doubt it would make it too the very top)
Ophir Pass, Alta Lakes
Yankee Boy Basin.
I have been up most these passes in other stock 4X4's but I was not driving and they were a lot smaller then my DC. Any thoughts from fellow Colorado People. I am also thinking of getting a Rescue Strap and a High Lift just to be on the safe side but I doubt I would need them for these type of things. I am most worried about shelf roads and this truck being relatively wide.
A buddy of mine with a stock '99 Ranger did St Elmo's Pass...and dented in his passenger door panel on a tight squeeze.
Like I said in the other thread too...I'll be happy to go run a couple with you whenever.
I'll look into a couple moderate ones we can do...Devil's Canyon should be a piece of cake.

I've done Imogene, Engineer, Tamichi (sp?), Mosquito, and most recent, Kingston, in my stock Tundra. Before that I had a 96 Tacoma that I did Tincup and Hancock. They were all a blast.

Was the truck stock at the time? What would you think of a DC on these trails?

Yes, my truck is still mostly stock. From what I remember, Tamichi, Tincup and Mosquito had some tight areas that I wouldn't want anything larger than my AC. Honestly, the DC is a BIG truck and I imagine it would be a bit tricky to to really manuever around if needed.
