slravenel said:another interesting thing is that these days most SE rigs are pretty much set up the same in terms of axle width and wheelbase, or at least pretty close. As trails get more and more beat down, holes get bigger, rocks get taller, lines get sketchier...you can make it up A LOT of stuff easier if you are set up different than those rigs since you can work your way through those real dug out spots in a different way than just sticking 4 tires in holes and standing on the gas until it climbs out.
But I dont think there is any magic setup as long as in general you have a decent set up - its all about how well you know your rig and your preference. Toyotas can definitely embarrass you every now and then though! laughing1
