    Just go out and drive off-road, I wheel alone a lot and it makes you much more alert and mindful of what you get yourself into. For me, as soon as there’s no pavement I switch it to 4wd, no need to find out how far the truck can go in 2wd, that’s stupid. Stock form tundras can go far except for ground clearance in specific cases, add on mods as you learn from off-roading what you need. A lot of mods you dont need, good luck.

    I'm not a big fan of wheeling alone unless it is an OHV park or something really easy where I'm pretty sure that other people will be around. I would never do any of the BASTRDS runs that we go on by myself. Most Northern California trails are far enough away from where Justin lives that he will have to plan in advanced and can easily post on here and probably get a few people to go with him. I will agree that just getting on dirt and switching to 4WD is a great place to start, you get a feel for how the truck handles.

    @Schook look at Funtreks either the website or buy the book. There are quite a few easy trails that you can cut your teeth on. Joon or Warren already mentioned Hollister and Prairie City.

    I learn from experiences.

    Check out the Bastards and hit some trails. I’m not sure if they have entry level runs, so chatting with them would be best. Great group of people to go with from everything I have personally heard.

    Good luck, have a great time outdoors with your Tundra.
